It’s been a minute since I even remembered I have a blog. Lately I’ve found myself on Instagram and Facebook more because, quite frankly, forming more than a couple of sentences at a time has been beyond me. It’s not that I’m necessarily busier than normal, it’s more that my attention span is spread over…

Drinking coffee by myself
This weekend is the coffee date link up with Deb and Coco. Sadly, given the current pandemic, there will be no in person coffee dates. If we were having coffee, I’d tell you that I hosted a “Corona Relay” this weekend. Every runner had to run 3 legs in 24-36 hours. I managed 13.3 miles…
VA Momentum Growler Relay Race Recap
This weekend I joined some other Ragnar Ambassadors to run a local relay. Instead of 12 runners, two vans, and 200 miles, it was 8 runners running from one brewery to another and back. What could be better than a day spent with running with friends, followed by a party at a brewery. Not much….
Bucket List Race: Bend Beer Chase
Today on Tuesdays on the Run, we are talking about our bucket list of races. For me, I’ve never been tempted by the big marathons, like Boston or NYC. I think it’s because I live in a big city myself, so big races don’t excite me. There are lots of races out there that I’d…
Ragnar DC 2016 Recap: Mad Fox 12 Pack
Once again Ragnar DC did not disappoint. I did not plan to run Ragnar DC this year as the date is right at the beginning of the school year and just a couple of weeks before a conference I attend for work. But when my friend asked me to help captain a team for Mad…
Preparing to run Ragnar DC again
I ran my first Ragnar Relay at the Ragnar DC two years ago. It was an amazingly fun experience and I couldn’t wait to run one again. We got lucky and our team won a free entry into Ragnar Cape Cod the following spring. I was afraid going in that it wouldn’t be as much…
Wrapping up a no race, low mileage week
How is it already May? This year is totally flying by! Last week was a bit crazy. I worked more hours than normal, we had some computer issues I needed to fix, and Shoo had several appointments, including one with my awesome chiropractor. Thankfully, his ankle seems to be nearly mended, so now it’s all…
Bucket List Race: Spokane to Sandpoint Relay
Every once in a while, I stumble upon a race I want to do someday. I’ve decided I’m going to start a series of “bucket list” races so that I don’t forget about them LOL. This is not a sponsored post, just me talking about what I love: traveling, racing, and beer. And this race…
Pacers Mini Relay + Ambassador party
This was a busy weekend for us. Shoo was supposed to have a soccer game (thankfully canceled due to wet fields.) My dishwasher was being delivered (it’s in my living room now. Baby steps, people.) The boys were testing for belts at martial arts and I had a relay to run. And that was just…
