As the year draws to an end, it’s time to reflect back on 2022 and my year of running, something I’ve been doing as the year dwindles to an end each year since 2014. For whatever reason I can’t find my 2015 post so I can only assume that it’s been sucked into the great […]
2022 found me toeing the starting line at only two races even though I was mostly injury-free and able to run comfortably using a shorter-distance and fewer-days running schedule that I adopted a few years ago. When I first started this blog almost ten years ago I declared that I wanted to run forever – […]
Disclaimer: This post contains an affiliate link… The Good Old Days Now that I’ve gotten everyone’s attention with my catchy title, of course I’m a runner. I’m just a runner who has cut back drastically on my mileage as I carefully straddle running enough to keep me happy and not so much that I’ll […]
As the year draws to an end, it’s time to reflect back on 2021 and my year of running, something I’ve been doing as the year dwindles to an end each year since 2014. For whatever reason I can’t find my 2015 post so I can only assume that it’s been sucked into the great […]
2021 didn’t find me toeing the line at as many races as in most years, but you can bet that I appreciated each race that was held live after running 100% of my races virtually in 2020. In fact, I spent most of 2020 rehabbing from an injury which resulted in me walking all but […]
As the year draws to an end, it’s time to reflect back on the crazy year called 2020 and my year of running, something I’ve been doing as the year dwindles to an end each year since 2014. For whatever reason I can’t find my 2015 post so I can only assume that it’s been […]
2020 didn’t find me toeing the line at any races, but you can bet that I made the most of the four races I virtually walked or ran. All were local, in fact they were completed on my treadmill, on the circle in our little neighborhood, or on the trails within our community. You can’t […]

2019 didn’t find me toeing the line at as many races as most years, but you can bet that I had fun at the four races I ran. The 5K’s were both local, but I traveled to run the half marathon and 4-miler. All were run with either friends or family and I only had […]

My friend Courtney at Eat Pray Run DC makes it easy to create a year end wrap-up by posting questions for fellow running bloggers in her linkup, Year of Running. Without further ado, here […]
2018 didn’t find me toeing the line at as many races as most years, but you can bet that I had fun at the seven races I ran. The 5K’s were run with friends, but I traveled to run the half marathon and 25K. Even though I had my husband along as my own personal […]
As the year draws to an end, it’s time to reflect back on 2017 and my year of running, something I’ve done for the last several years. My friend Courtney makes it easy each year by posting questions for us running bloggers to work from. Without further ado, here are my responses… Best race experience: This past […]
As the year draws to an end, I’m joining in on the fun with Courtney at Eat Pray Run DC for her second year of hosting the Year of Running linkup. Once Courtney posted the questions and topics, fellow bloggers and I used them to write our wrap-ups of our year on the streets and trails in our […]

As 2014 draws to an end, I’ve put together my running/racing year in pictures… My goal this year was to run a race each month, but by the time I set my goals, the local January races that I was interested in running were already filled to capacity. January ended up being the only month […]
For several years, Amanda over at Miss Zippy has encouraged her readers to linkup with her and share their “year in running” recaps. I participated in 2013, and I’m back again for 2014. 2014 was a huge (eleven races), and really good racing year for me. It all just clicked. Of course, the fact that […]
To celebrate this last day of 2013, I’ve put together the year in pictures… Unfortunately, I’m not starting off very well since didn’t start blogging until January 31st, and until then didn’t feel the need to photograph every moment of my life. Believe it or not, I have no running pictures from January! On this […]
