(Ah, Monday. Time to get moving. (Or so I tell myself.) One of my goals for 2019 was to get more active. And I’ll tell ya, so far so good. Let’s review: Sign up for the Lincoln Half-Marathon in May. Check. Yes. I signed up. Official training starts in February. Get to the gym at ...
I’m going to be honest with y’all: I have very little motivation lately when it comes to working out and eating healthy. It’s bad. And I mean really bad. It’s been especially difficult because I’m a pretty active person overall (or so I tell myself). I’ve run ...
Oh, hey! We’ve officially hit the halfway mark on the half-marathon training. This week was a light week to rest up before some high mileage and I’ll be honest… I really took advantage of that. In fact, I missed a day of running and sort of shrugged it off. Whoops? Anyway, ...

I have an hour and a half to get this published before it’s no longer Monday. Talk about leaving it until the last minute. Whoops? Before I get into last week’s running recap, I do have to say thank you for all the love and support in response to yesterday’s blog. Y’all ...
I’m going to be honest: My first week of half-marathon training was rough. The good news is that I’ve got a stellar training partner (which is why he got the header photo, because he’s great!) and we’re keeping at it. That doesn’t mean it hasn’t been ...
Today marks the first day of half-marathon training for the Lincoln Half-Marathon on May 7. I’m following the same training plan I’ve always used, which is the Novice 1 program from Hal Higdon. I am nothing but a creature of habit. I decided to use “Motivation Monday” as ...
