So this weekend I ran my first race since the Half in Disney, and it was my birthday, and I got Bon Jovi tickets, and yesterday (Monday) was National Napping Day (which I celebrated in style). What more could you ask for in a weekend? At my age not much, it was a full and… Continue reading Be a Crafty Runner

Looking for a place to put my thoughts.
Reblogging this today in honor of International Women's Day.
One more time for the Womankind
I truly believe this quote. After finding myself almost ranting about women being oppressed at least twice in the past week, I feel the need to put this out here. I am not a militant feminist or anything, I do not think any woman needs to be, we carry all of the power without so much as… Continue reading One more time for the Womankind
Will Run for Tattoos
Well, I will not run for tattoos, I have a horrific fear of needles; just listening to my daughter get this tattoo gave me chills. Completing this half marathon is a big deal for me, my daughter, and many women I have met along the way; I think we all want to reward ourselves in… Continue reading Will Run for Tattoos
A Really Long Detour
So apparently blogging over the past almost six months was not be part of my journey from here to me. I have missed it and have thought about it often; but training and chatting and working and life kept moving this down my list, but I really need it back in my life. Quick catch… Continue reading A Really Long Detour
Where Dreams Come True
Today I ran 6.22 miles, or in Disney Princess Half Marathon terms, I have run from Epcot and made it into Magic Kingdom and around the Castle :)! This has made my day! My pace was 13:40 but I ran 6.22 miles! Six months ago I would have thought this impossible, now it is reality… Continue reading Where Dreams Come True

Tonight I want to share a message about another passion of mine, rescue animals. This might scare some of… Continue reading My other passion and a short PSA
Never Forget
In reverence today we remember all those lost, all those saved and all those who came together as heroes in this horrific event. Today and always we need peace and love throughout the world.
Do not stretch the truth, but definitely stretch your body
Never underestimate the importance of stretching before and after a run; that is the lesson I learned today. I mentioned yesterday that I had not worked out for a whole week until my run yesterday. When I put in my regular 5-day workout I stretch each time before and after my run or strength workout;… Continue reading Do not stretch the truth, but definitely stretch your body
Nike, take me away!
What a week! Not only have I not posted to my blog, but from Saturday to Saturday I did not run or go to the gym. This week really got away from me, but today, finally, I got to run. Who needs Calgon when you have a pair of Nike's and a running path… Continue reading Nike, take me away!
