With the exception of Monday, it was nice running this week, even if it was all over the place. Weather whiplash indeed, from running in a skirt & tee one day to tights and a jacket a couple of days later. I'm joining up with the Weekly Wrap from Holly @ Hohoruns and Tricia @ Misssipppiddlin to get … Continue reading Turkey Talk: 10/30-11/5 Weekly Wrap

No trail race but a hike!: 10/23-29 Weekly Wrap
It's Fall, y'all. We are just a little bit past peak here in our neck of the woods, but this post will be a bit more photo heavy since it's just so pretty out there (when it isn't raining, like today). I traded in an easy run for a hike this week. I continued to … Continue reading No trail race but a hike!: 10/23-29 Weekly Wrap

It’s the Great Pumpkin!: 10/9-15 Weekly Wrap
There hasn't been a lot of short distance racing this year, but I tried a new-to-me 10 k this weekend. I'm usually traveling this time of year since it's right around our anniversary, but this year we front loaded most of our travel in the first half of the year. Except for a teeny escape … Continue reading It’s the Great Pumpkin!: 10/9-15 Weekly Wrap
Putting the R in Rest: 10/2-8 Weekly Wrap
It's another week short on activity, but man, I needed that! The last couple of weeks before my half were not the least bit restful and I was feeling extremely run down and just praying I could make it to the half healthy (actually, praying I would make it at all -- but that's a … Continue reading Putting the R in Rest: 10/2-8 Weekly Wrap
State #16, Half #18: 9/25-10/1 Weekly Wrap
It's somewhat short and sweet this week, because what promised to be a crazy week got even crazier midweek and I was feeling really run down (before that) so there wasn't really a whole lot of activity. Aside from a little half marathon. I'm joining up with the Weekly Wrap from Holly @ Hohoruns and Tricia @ … Continue reading State #16, Half #18: 9/25-10/1 Weekly Wrap

Workouts update Monday: Dogwalk, 2 mile walk because 2 left shoes!, PB Core Tuesday: … Continue reading A Friendly Weekend: 9/18-24 Weekly Wrap
Hello Taper!: 9/11-17 Weekly Wrap
I love me some taper. Seriously. I am so ready for mine. Y'all, I started training for halfs in March of 2016 with almost no breaks at all since then. So many do more, but that's a lot for me! I'm joining up with the Weekly Wrap from Holly @ Hohoruns and Tricia @ Misssipppiddlin and sharing how my … Continue reading Hello Taper!: 9/11-17 Weekly Wrap
New Critters: 9/4-10 Weekly Wrap
No, no new furkids! But I saw a larger snake than I've seen in our neighborhood before (unfortunately squashed by a car) and a Heron at the park. We enjoyed some scenic views from an overlook we hiked to, and oh yeah, there was a little running in there, too (and trying -- but failing … Continue reading New Critters: 9/4-10 Weekly Wrap
Oh Deer!: 8/28-9/3 Weekly Wrap
It wasn't a great summer. So much better than last summer, though, and no natural disasters here so we are very blessed. Do you feel like summer is over with Labor Day? It's hard not to feel that way, with the lovely Fall weather we've been having. Tomorrow will warm up, but it won't be sticking … Continue reading Oh Deer!: 8/28-9/3 Weekly Wrap
