MCM Mama Runs for Beer and Bling
I’ve done a few “year in review” posts so far this month and it appears that my year was pretty amazing. But I haven’t looked back at my goals since June, so it’s time to take a quick look and see which ones I met, which ones I missed, and which ones I completely forgot…
I have a huge runfession to make. Huge. I really don’t want to run any more long runs. I’m just over it. A month from now, I’ll be lining up at the start line for the 40th running of the Marine Corps Marathon. When I decided to run it, I was riding high on my…

Today is Tuesdays on the Run, but due to crazy busy lives (or just plain lack of cell service for an entire week), April, Patty, and I decided to go with a “free topic” week. Feel free to link up any running related post! Center of the Nation Series Half Marathon – Wyoming September 17,…

We are here! Today I am running the first of 6 half marathons that are part of the Mainly Marathons’ Center of the Nations series, starting in beautiful Baker, Montana. We’ve had a busy but fun trip so far. We got up at stupid early on Saturday morning and got to the airport by 5:30am. YAWN!…
With a little bonus Wonder Woman. T-24 hours until it’s go time and I have a to do list longer than the astronauts check list. I know I’ll have a great time once I’m on vacation, but getting from here to there is a bit daunting. Thankfully, I have a packing list. I created one…
How is it only Thursday? I feel like I’ve been through two weeks at least in the last two days since school started. I thought I was supposed to have free time once the kids went back to school? Ha! Anyways, it’s Thursday and I’m doing a bit of a mind dump AKA Thinking Out…
