It's been quite some time since I've done a SIDI post. During my longest training period of my life, I grew superstitious and needed to shut-up about marathon training. I'm feeling a bit that way right now, but I'm also trying to realize that the whole point of SIDI is accountability. This past weekend I ran my first "real" miles in seven weeks. On Sunday, I huffed and puffed my way through six … [Read more...] about Say it, Do it! {fall training}

Say it, Do it! {attitude of gratitude}
I hear about sleep schedules quite often from my sister who has two boys, ages 4 and 2. Last week I felt like a baby being sleep trained. Deciding to make sleep a priority took discipline.

Like any good journey, this one has had quite a few twists and turn. Coming off a less than inspired week of training, I pulled out my Believe I Am journal and got to … [Read more...] about Say it, Do it! {no more sabotaging my efforts}
Say it, Do it! {Solo Runs}
It's been one of those weeks, where talking about running seems trivial and yet so important in so many ways. It's obvious that running defines me. It almost always has, and I hope it always does. The "loneliness of the long distance runner" was probably one of the things that attracted me to this sport in middle school, but it's the community of runners that has kept me in this sport for some … [Read more...] about Say it, Do it! {Solo Runs}
