I'm not your typical runner. Not skinny. Not fast. But I do love to run and I love races!

I'm still at it!

It's been a while! I've done a lot since I last blogged. My key accomplishments were a new half marathon PR (finally sub 3!) in October 2015 and completing my first marathon in Paris in April 2016 as a 40th birthday goal. I will be reflecting back on those accomplishments in future posts.

I am now training for the New York Marathon. I applied for the NY marathon lottery on a whim on the last day of the lottery - Before I even ran my first marathon! I never really expected to be selected - I've heard stories of people entering the lottery for years and never being selected. But I was. So I must now train. I am determined to show improvement in my second marathon.

To show improvement I must be more consistent and follow my plan. I have no trouble getting in my long runs (well most of the time). It's the weekday runs that are a challenge for me, with my insomnia and workaholic habits combined. I can do this though!
