New Year, New Training Plan
The Dirty German is on May 13th this year, and while "official" training doesn't begin until January 23rd I'm doing a few weeks of pre-training to start building mileage back up. I kinda fizzled out back in September or October - I think I was burned out and needed a break. To alleviate burn out this … Continue reading New Year, New Training Plan
Meatless (Meal Planning) Monday
This week's recipes are from Happy Herbivore and Forks over Knives, with my own modifications, of course. I'm still up a few pounds and still (sometimes uncomfortably) bloated, but I do feel like I'm on the mend, finally. I was even able to run for just under an hour yesterday with no tummy issues! I'm … Continue reading Meatless (Meal Planning) Monday

I opted for the treadmill so that I'd be closer to the bathroom, if needed ;) But all went well, and … Continue reading 10k for Autism
Training Derailed. What’s next? And Shoes!
My training for the Dirty German Endurance Fest got derailed by my stupid stomach issues. I ended up at the GI and am currently in the midst of several procedures being done to figure out what's going on. Needless to say, I will not be ready to run 50 miles in 3 weeks. I was … Continue reading Training Derailed. What’s next? And Shoes!
