Okay, while the post title may suggest that I am or am going to be traveling on the road again, that’s not quite the case. I’ve been traveling though. And on the road. But by foot! A few weeks ago I got back into running action after a few month hiatus! Here’s a brief rewind …
Marathon Monday
Happy Marathon Monday! Today is the Boston Marathon! All I know is that Boston is lucky their weather is looking better than Houston’s today. It’s 60 degrees, cloudy and getting cooler as the day goes on in Boston. Not bad running weather. Meanwhile in Houston… It’s crazy flooding all around Houston today. We’re safe and …
Texas Spring Days

November Goals!
Hello November! Not only is it November, but we’re 4 days in. The days are long, but the years are short. It’s never sounded more true! The hard days feel like they’ll never end, but how are we already in the 11th month of this year?! Last month I started to refocus on writing out …
How to Get Back to Running Postpartum
Running has been a passion of mine since my senior year of college. I started running because I wanted to run a half marathon just to say that I could do it. As a highly competitive person and someone who loves health and fitness, it just made sense! Fast forward several years and many half …
