Final Week Before the Marathon

It’s my last marathon feature before Scotiabank Waterfront Marathon and I hope you all are deep in taper crazies. I wanted to speak a little to the last week before the marathon. I did a feature on the final week in August, but I wanted to explore a little bit of the psychological side and… Read More…

It’s Not Just You

It’s Not Just You

“Nothing that just happened here has surprised me.” I looked up blinking at my friend from the floor. I had asked if they wanted a drink and opened the fridge to have the first glass container come crashing out of the door and shattering across the kitchen floor. Earlier that day, the tomato sauce from… Read More…

Well. It is incredible how much one month can change the focus on your goals! I am headed into a bit of a different October than I anticipated, but I wanted to set some goals for the month and see how I did on my goals in September. 1. Take up martial arts. B I… Read More…

Thank you all so much for your support on Monday’s post. It has not been fun being injured, but I have tried to make the most of it and have been working hard at perfecting my swim stroke! I wanted to talk about last weekend for a second. It was the first race that I… Read More…

If we were having coffee: Laces and Lattes style

Ok. It’s time to interrupt regular posting to have a very frank chat. The blog feature of “if we were having coffee”? We are doing that right now. Except it would be a latte for me. I have a confession. I am not running right now. At all.  It’s not that I don’t want to…. Read More…

Controlling Pre-Race Nerves

Heeeeey! It’s the weekend and I am so ready to get outside! We have been hit by a wave of lovely weather and the last thing I want to do is let it go to waste. I wanted to talk about something that I know a lot of runners deal with before a race, especially… Read More…

Sports Taping for Runners

Sports Taping for Runners

It’s Wednesday which means that I just survived my first huge event at work. I had been informed by my boss that if I can survive this month, I can survive anything this job throws me, so I am relieved and quite frankly, ready to sleep for a week. My training took a back seat… Read More…

Marathon Gear

Hey loves! How was your weekend? I spent most of it working – it has been the most intense workweek of my career so far and I loved the challenge, but my training took a backseat. I am also dealing with an injury right now, so it was wise to rest and focus on my… Read More…
