My first half marathon was more than I hoped it could be.  I came into it with a huge smile on my face and left with a huge smile on my face.  I accomplished something that was only a dream for so long…something I never would have imagined myself accomplishing two years ago.  The Santa [...]

The last real blog post I wrote was September 28, almost two months ago.  So why haven’t I written?  What stopped me?  I’ve been pondering this for a few days, realizing that I’ve had the urge to write and it’s time to begin again.  I took a lot of photos over the past couple of [...]

  Hello, blogworld!  I’m finally getting around to updating you on the results of the 10k I ran 2 weeks ago.  It was a fantastic day!  First of all, I’d like to thank my champ of a husband for waking up with me at 5am on a Saturday just to come down to Santa Monica [...]
