I ran 3.5 today along lovely Santa Monica beaches and then up San Vicente. Gorgeous views and weather. Then I negated my workout with a delicious filet mignon dinner. You only live once!

Played volleyball today at 8pm. It was fun, but I haven't played in years so let's just say it wasn't my best performance (ah, I stank :). There was one guy there who was so focused on winning, and...

Just ran today. After giving up on the marathon, I decided to make working out fun again. Part of that means getting back to a good variety and actually working out every day! So here I am,...

My marathon is dated April 25 and I can't wait to travel to the gorgeous seascape to get away for awhile with my beau. However, call me a wuss, but winter training this past season was absolutely...

I was nervous, and there was definitely adrenaline going.Also, the miles were not clearly marked, there was no clock at the mile markers to tell me what my splits were, and I did have my watch but...

I'm excited. Last Saturday, I made a new mins/mile PR! I ran 5 miles, but I forgot to start my watch for the first half, and only realized it at the turnaround point! So I was able to time my 2nd 2.5...

Just a quick note - this week I've been sticking to it with just one flipflop - 3 miles on Tuesday, 8 x 400s on Thursday (which, I must say, was a lot easier than I thought!), and 3 miles today....

It has been a looong time since I've posted. Last weekend I was in LA, and I have been busy during the week. That's the extent of my excuses... and now the running:I have definitely been skipping...

It has been awhile since I've written and caught up with my DS friends! Things have been busy as usual, but I've been keeping up with the running.I did my 4 mile run last last Saturday, and I did...

Ahh, it's been awhile since I've written. BUT that doesn't mean I haven't been running!So far in my training, I have skipped one 3 mile run. On Tuesday, I did end up running that 5 miler, but as...

So it's been a long time since my last entry, and to be honest, I've been doing a lot of flip-flopping! Friday was supposed to be a rest, the Saturday a fast 3 mile run, Sunday a relaxed 5 mile run,...

Did my 3 mile run, late again! It was on the treadmill, and the first two miles I was thinking, "booooorrrringgg" at 6mph. So I pushed it to 6.7mph for the next half mile, then took a .25 mile break...

My first tempo today was harrrrddddd! Thanks for all the comments - SmileLisa I thought of you while running that fast leg. I saw two guys in front of me, and I tried my very best to beat them! haha....

Ran 3 miles late on the treadmill again. It felt so good to run during the day, but I just can't get myself to go! Time for bed already... tomorrow is a harder workout of a 3 mile tempo run. Wish me...

I couldn't wait to write this post. 5 miles today! That is the longest I've run in months... and it wasn't easy. The route I created was pretty tough in the beginning with one giant hill, and lots of...
