May 4, 2013 Run - Saucony Virrata

Week in Re/Preview

This week I ran 3 times, for a total of 17 miles. I’ve been using the (free!) app runBSX and I will have a review plus a cool giveaway to go along with that this week. (Seriously… you’ll want to enter!) So even though for the most part I’m trying …

Run in my Saucony Virrata - 74 degrees

Week in Re/Preview

I haven’t been logging my mileage on dailymile lately, just because I don’t want pressure. I know it’s all pressure that I put on myself to “perform”, but I think that just taking time to run for personal enjoyment is essential. I must say, not worrying about training for any …

The week didn’t start off so swell, with a fall on the run. But it ended up okay. On Friday I had the day off work and I went for a wonderful 8 miler. (Island Boost continues to work well for me!) I think the run went so well because …

dailymile - 3/4/2013 to 3/10/2013

Week in Re/Preview

Last week I ran a whopping 6 miles! Go me! Excuses are like armpits, everyone has them and they all stink. The basic gist is that the weather sucked this weekend. It rained and hailed all day on Friday. Saturday and Sunday were windy and I wasn’t taking the baby …

Alex and Mommy, baby is 6 months old

Running & Nursing

I really wanted to breastfeed my baby for her first year. I’ve always heard how “breast is best” and I was happy that milk came in and I didn’t have any problems breastfeeding. I have a love/hate relationship with breastfeeding in general. I like that I don’t have to buy …
