Thank you all for following along with my Race recap blitz! I am going to make a conscious effort to do my recaps on a more consistent basis next year but we’ll see how it goes ;). This was my second time running the Holiday Half. We ran it last year and I managed to […]
I hope everyone had a great holiday weekend! The race recap blitz continues with recap 4/5. Ever run a race that everyone raves about? That would be CIM (California International Marathon). It’s touted as the fastest course in the west and is where a lot of people qualified for the Olympic Trials at the 2015 […]
If you’ve been following along for a while, you might remember that last year I won 2 entries into the North Face Endurance Challenge California through an Instagram contest put on by Repreve. I gave my original entry to Sean so he could run the 50 miler and then they gave me a second entry […]
The race recap blitz continues… Mid-October to November was busy with a lot of travel & a lot of racing so originally we were going to just stay home and chill for Thanksgiving. But it was Sean’s birthday weekend so when I asked him what he wanted to do, he said, “I just saw that […]
I am so very far behind on my race recaps, so here comes a recap blitz… I am determined to get all these recaps up before the end of the year starting with Revel Canyon City. Sean & I ran this race for the first time last year. I had the opportunity to run the […]

So many runners enter the lottery with hopes that come March their credit cards will be charged $255 and they will be in for the biggest race in the world! I’ve been lucky to have run NYC Marathon once before, although, […]
This past year has been a whirlwind of 100 mile races. We started the year in Arizona at Coldwater Rumble and finished in Arizona with the Javelina Jundred. First off, let me say that Aravaipa does an excellent job managing all the runners and crew. There were close to 800 people running this race making […]
Last year, Sean & I went to Italy for our honeymoon and we built our trip around the Venice Marathon. My race recap from last year can be found here. This year, as you already know, Sean got into UTMB back in January and we knew we would be heading to Chamonix-Monte Blanc in late […]
Last weekend, I headed to the start line of the biggest or maybe I should say longest race of my running career. This recap is pretty long too, so reader beware 😉 lol. Back in March after a successful race at Old West 50k, I was feeling a lot better about running ultras. I worked […]
It has been an incredibly busy 6 weeks for us, between a trip to Phoenix for work for me, a trip to Hawaii for Sean to visit his dad, UTMB, coming back and almost immediately leaving for a work event in Cleveland then heading to Tahoe to crew/pace Sean at his third Tahoe 200, I […]
