So, turns out I haven’t been that great of a blogger lately, but I decided that the weekly workout recap is non-negotiable. It’s great for holding myself accountable to make goals and stick to them.
I realized that I’ve been struggling to get my long runs in on Sundays, because I’ve been heavily skewing my [...]

This weekend. Was. AWESOME. Felicia was a star, New Orleans was so so cool, and I ate a lot of delicious treats!! I’ll be back with my race recap after Felicia writes hers, as she really was the star of the show.
I struggled a little bit with my runs this week, but after [...]

Good week for me this week on the workout front! I (finally) ran 30 miles for the first time since the marathon. I also got six workouts in, including lifting twice. I’m totally back!
Furthermore, I attended another CPTC workout!!! I’m two for two! This week was actually really, really fun. I was less nervous, as [...]

Oh heyyy. Guess WHAT!? I finallllly went to Central Park Track Club’s Thursday night workout!!! Not like I have been trying to psych myself up to go for weeks and weeks or anything…
It turned out to not be that scary, although everyone was pretty fast. I’ll have a separate post recapping Thursday’s adventure (which [...]
Why Do You Do It??

Felicia’s comments in this post have really gotten me thinking over the past few weeks. Specifically, towards the end of the post, she said ”Running is wonderful, but I know that combining it with more strength training will result in the leaner look that I’d prefer.” Reading that sentence resulted in that weird feeling that you get when you’re [...]

I never would have expected it to be this hard to figure out my training post-marathon! In the past, I ran times that I wasn’t psyched about and/or was injured. As a result, I finished the marathon and focused on cross training (or…not doing anything) for a while before even THINKING about running. Now that [...]
They Have Issues (Gym Edition)

It’s possible that I’m not the world’s friendliest person. And yes, I may be a little judgmental. I may even have said once or twice that I hate all strangers. However, neither of those things have stopped me in the past few weeks from being absolutely accosted by freaks and weirdos at the gym. In a way, it actually [...]

So, I’m back with a weekly workout recap! The week after the marathon I did about five minutes on the elliptical one day, did a 3 and a 4.5 mile run, and did a real cross training day with 45 minutes on the elliptical. I was feeling pretty good about myself for actually getting some workouts [...]
I Have Issues. (Gym Edition)

Wednesday after work (before our super exciting Real Housewives sighting), I headed to the gym for my first post-marathon workout. Although I (shockingly) was already itching to run, I decided to play it safe and do the elliptical for my first day back. I arrived at the gym, pushed my way through the packed locker [...]

Hello world!! After cementing my title as worst blogger ever, I’m back and ready for 2010! I spent Christmas w/ my fam then went to Costa Rica for lots of warm weather, frolicking, rainforest, white water rafting, and rice and beans eating. It was an absolute delight! Being back in NY with zero degree wind chills [...]
