What I Ate (and did) Wednesday!
It’s been a while since I’ve had a WIAW post. January’s challenge needed my full attention! Breakfast was a Bagel Thin, with Peanut Butter and Banana. Do you take vitamins? Which ones?

12 miles feels awesome!
I haven’t run this far since October 27, 2012 when I did 13.1 in California! It’s been a battle since then with injuries but I’m coming back strong! It felt so good to get 12 miles today. It was slower than my “usual” pace but these days a run is a run, no matter the […]
