Week 2 of training is in the books. So far I am feeling pretty good overall between the running and the boot camp sessions. The camp runs in four week camps with one “rest” week in-between the camps. This week wrapped up camp 37, but camp one for myself. In case you missed it, I … More Florida Holiday Halfathon Training Recap: Week 2
First week of half marathon training is underway! I am officially just under 12 weeks out from my fifth half.

Wednesday: Rest day. Thursday: 3 mile run. Friday: Rest day. Saturday: Rest day. My … More Iron Girl Training Recap: Week 6
Ello! I hope everyone had a nice Easter weekend filled with fun, family and friendship 🙂 I can’t believe race week is here! Only two more short distance runs stand in the way the race.

I noticed a big difference in my performance and my level of endurance after completing one of these every 2-3 weeks of hard training. Recovery … More Iron Girl Training Recap: Week 3
Week 2 is in the books! I don’t know about all of you, but the time change seriously had me thrown off last week. What was a typically 5am alarm to get my run in before work, was a 4am alarm internally, and my body has made sure to let me know around 3pm. Lol. … More Iron Girl Training Recap: Week 2
Well, last weekend I took the plunge and registered for Iron Girl Clearwater! This was my first ever half marathon and here I am returning to the event as my fourth half in a year! Those bridges are a beast so I am hoping to include more inclining training this time around. I would love … More Iron Girl Training Recap: Week 1
