Marathon training has come to a temporary halt for me now that I’m no longer running Chicago. My mortgage got an official approval from the underwriter late on Monday (YAY) so now I am 110% positive I will be running…

Hey there! I hope you had a great weekend. Mine was pretty awesome. I worked on a project that I’ll tell you all about tomorrow. It’s something I’m really proud of :). Until then, here’s a recap video of my…
Helloooooo! I need to start off with a confession this morning: I had the laziest of weekends :). I got in all of my running, but aside from that Adam and I really stuck to home. Here’s my training recap…
