“Start where you are” and Half Marathon training!

Hi! Been a while! I went home up North last week and a good friend said, “it’s like you moved to Mars! How is it??” ahahahaha (Love you, Shelby!) She was describing it like that in a good way, and I totally agreed with her. I moved to another planet to put my head downContinue reading ““Start where you are” and Half Marathon training!”

No strength training at all, which I vow to get back on TOMORROW…but a good amount of cross training on top of 114 km! Tomorrow is my first non-running day since May 23rd and I’ll be taking full advantage of it soContinue reading “PUMP up the JAMmie! – Week 9/16”
