I’m happy with this week’s running: Monday I got to run 5 miles. It was the President’s Day holiday, my mom was out with Alex in her stroller. On Thursday I did a quick 3.2 miles Friday I ran 9.56 miles (Another postpartum distance milestone!) All of that was good. …

I feel like I’m falling apart! Most of the week was pretty scaled back due to illness. I mentioned last week that if I still felt bad I would go to the doctor at the beginning of the week because I need to take care of the baby… no screwing …
Last week became a step back week. Combined with Alex’s cold, me catching that cold and the fact that I’d just been building pretty steadily for several weeks, it was needed. And I enjoyed it! No guilt about not running as much. I ran just three times last week, one …
Well, last month I set a goal for myself (in the Active Goals app - I reviewed it over on TheRUNiverse.com) to run 75 miles. I fell short… But that’s okay… I guess… Kind of… Alright, I admit… I’m frustrated! I had some miserable runs. I had some good runs. I …
You’re hot then you’re cold, you’re yes then you’re no… Yeah, my training feels a little bit like lyrics to a Katy Perry song. One week I seem to have a really good week, even if I end up feeling terrible after a run. Then the next… things just don’t …
Overall, I’m pleased with the week’s numbers: Monday: 2 miles on the Treadmill, 16.75 miles on the FitDesk Tuesday: 5.1 mile run Wednesday: rest Thursday: 8.29 mile run, 12.13 miles on the FitDesk Friday: 20.41 miles on the FitDesk Saturday: 3.2 mile run Sunday: Rest I could use more strength …
My week last week started off really well. I spent some time on the FitDesk, had a couple of great runs and I was pleased that I had given myself a “work/life”balance by taking the time to do my long(ish) run on Wednesday mid-morning. (New postpartum milestone, 7.36 miles.) And …
What a weird year… at least for me. Last year at this time I was supposed to run the Resolution Run on New Years’ Eve and felt too crummy. I was little over a month along in my pregnancy and just felt shredded. It was actually the first time I …
I had a cold… it dragged me down all week. Thus I decided I wasn’t running. The cold hadn’t fully settled into my lungs, but it was making me cough somewhat (which is terrible when the baby is eating and you have to cough. She pulls back and looks at …
