Running For...

Lenape Challenge Tribe Team! Only one team did not tip the canoe! Here we ran 4 miles and then canoed 2 miles.
Broad Street Runners!

After spending a great spring of running, it’s difficult to stay motivated. My next longer run is scheduled for September. The summer is filled with weddings, including my own. But I am going to need a base if I want to PR November 1st in the marathon. My last few marathons have been pretty consistent and it’s time to get to the next level.
Conshohocken Nights- Got to run in the morning, still!

How to keep running on a steady schedule? I’ve done minimal since Broad Street, mostly because I am not sure what to do. A few miles here and then and some 400 repeats. It’s time to build speed, add more mileage, and have fun! I like plans and goals to check off.
And eating/preparing Mother's Day brunch?! Delicious, but not running friendly foods :-)


Mantra: Have fun running, stick to the plan, get some lifting/core/yoga in, and enjoy wedding planning!
