Memorial Day Weekend Part 2: My first Ultramarathon My husband runs Ultramarathons. When I started my journey towards running back in October I thought that perhaps, in the distant future, I could run half marathons with him. I never in a million years would have imagined that I would be running a 50k race 7 [...]
Crewing at Massanutten Mountain Trails 100
A few weekends ago my hubby and I traveled down to Virginia so he could race in the Massanutten Mountain Trails 100 miler race. I know this is a late report seeing as the race happened May 15-16th but the entire group of people that run that race was wonderful. The members and volunteers from [...]
Candia PTO 5k
After two weeks consisting of constant school or work work, and a whirlwind weekend in Virginia, I had grand ideas of what I would be doing running wise this weekend. I had to get up early on Saturday I was going to run a half marathon distance at least. I would do a nice run [...]

Power of Prevention 5k Run
What kind of girl goes into Boston at 6am to run a 5k? A girl who has to drop off her husband at the airport at 4am. I also dragged my brother along so he could take pictures. Note: I’ve been very pink lately. Race: AACE Prevention 5k Date: April 24, 2010 Location: Boston, MA [...]
NHTI/Delta Dental 5k
Remember how I think that NHTI’s Cross Country coach is awesome? Here’s a picture of him giving us pre-race instructions as I raced another race in Concord on NHTI’s campus.

2010 Great Bay Half Marathon
I spent most of the week prior to this race limping around and sitting at my desk either with a heat pack, an ice pack or a foot wheel under my foot. I didn’t train at all for fear of aggravating the evil plantar fasciitis. So when I was able to walk a little on [...]
April Fools 4 Miler
Race: A Spring Classic – April Fools 4 Mile Road Race Date: April 3, 2010 Distance: 4 miles Full Results Here. I’ve only been running again since October and I never raced when I did it as a cross-training for rowing. So most of my races have been personal records simply because I manage to [...]
NHTI Spring Ahead 3 miler (belated)
I love NHTI’s cross country coach, Tom Walton. I once searched his name online and found a comment he had posted on a blog post about how he wants to turn Concord, New Hampshire into one of the fittest cities in America. He was looking for inspiration on how to do that. I think he [...]
Very Belated First Half Marathon Report
So I hopped on my blog this afternoon to look something up and quickly realized how much this little piece of the internet has been neglected. And it’s been an eventful time. I do occasionally put some posts up on my SparkPeople blog (the following post is actually an edited piece from that blog), but [...]
