The Weekly Recap – August 18, 2024
A solid week IMO! Pretty sure I ran close to the most miles I’ve done in a week outside of a race event/day. How do I feel you ask? Not too bad! I’ve been working on recovery and self care, as I had a massage last week as well as took a soak with some…

If you’ve ever dabbled in web design, publishing, or any form of content creation, you’ve likely encountered the term “Lorem Ipsum.” This seemingly nonsensical string of Latin has been the go-to placeholder text for designers and developers for decades. But where did it come from, and why is it used so widely? A Brief History…

Another week has gone by, and I was oh so happy to see that my coach called for a recovery week!! Though the miles ran were considerably less, the same cant’ be said about the weather. Both rain and humidity I think set some records! On a brighter note, according to Strava, I ran my 3rd…

Apparently joining a run club is all the rage these days and some people even think it’s replacing the dating apps. I’m not sure if that is true, especially as I’m not in “that scene” in any capacity! That said, until about a year ago, I had never been a part of an “official” run…

Read MoreReview: LMNT Watermelon Salt
As I’ve mentioned previously, I’m in the process of testing some new things. If you are anything like me, after 4-6+ hrs on my feet, I get tired of the same flavors, and having some options/variety is a good thing! As I still have a few samples from the LMNT package I was given it’s…

Wrapping up another week of training, and though I tell it to others often, I did it myself this past week…that is listening to your body when you are feeling fatigue and/or pain. What was my issues? Shoes with a little over 330 miles on them! My right shin was on fire during one of…

Wrapping up another week of training runs, and while my mileage ticked up ever so slightly, I have to say, my hatred for humidity has reached new heights.
