Running through life while balancing healthy eating and single motherhood
I ALWAYS seem to have random questions to ask a running coach. Thankfully, I have Laura who is always so happy to answer any of my questions with explanations that always make sense. Last week I asked Laura to take two of my most recent running questions and expand the answers into a post that I […]
I can’t believe that my third week of training with Laura is now complete. The miles are flying by and I am LOVING every single workout she throws in my direction. This week definitely involved more challenging workouts. I had a tempo run, treadmill hill workout and a last-minute progression run on the treadmill added […]
This was my the first week of my summer training with Laura. I’m not training for a race just yet, she’s just giving me a month of workouts that mix up my mileage and rejuvenate my routine in preparation for maybe a Fall half marathon. I believe I ran 41 miles and I never […]
If you follow me on Instagram, you may have already heard that I didn’t finish yesterday’s More/Fitness Women’s Half Marathon. Let’s start from where we left off yesterday morning. My cousin Amy and I did our usual pathetic selfie shot while waiting in line for the Port O Potties. It was a bit chilly but […]

Rumor has it today is already Wednesday. And, get this, Rosh Hashanah begins tonight at sundown. The holidays are super early this year and while I am never one to turn down challah, apples and honey, I do have a bit of trouble switching from summer mode to fall mode so quickly. The fall produce is a bit behind the […]
When I turned 35 a few months ago, I entered a new age bracket. And, I have concluded that checking the 35-39 box isn’t half bad. I decided at the last minute to run the Robert McAvoy 5-mile race in Long Beach yesterday morning and actually finished second for my age group. The weather was icky, sticky and misty. The boardwalk […]
Monday morning greets me with what seems to be the new norm for us here in New York – 20 degrees, feelin frigid with a gust of wind every few seconds. Last winter was so mild i just figured it would happen again this year. Clearly I was wrong. Today may be a rest day. […]
