My Heart Is Full (and my quads are sore AF!)

My heart is full and my quads are sore AF. Not Your Average Runner Rebels on the Run Training Blog

I just got back from five days in Seattle with the most amazing group of badass rebel runners. We ate, we drank, we laughed, I cried (I always end up crying), and we ran the Rock ‘N’ Roll half marathon on the hardest race course I’ve ever been on. Those Seattle hills are no joke. […]

Creating a Morning Routine

For the last 10 years, I’ve been trying to be a “morning person.” I always wanted to be one of those people who pops out of bed at 5:00 a.m., works out, challenges my brain, meditates, and sneaks in a little yoga all before I have to get ready and go to work. Whew, that […]

The Best Places to Run

Do you have a favorite place to run? That trail or route or special place that is guaranteed to make your feet dance over the ground, lift your spirits, and remind you why you love to run?

Consistency Is Key

Remember last week’s post when I so smugly claimed that running alone and being one with my mind was bliss? Well, my brain was like, “Hold my beer.” Negativity breeds discontent It started with a small medical issue I was having that was keeping me from running or working out. And completely forgetting that consistency […]

Hopewell Valley 5K and a Difference of Opinion

Last weekend I ran a 5K with Andy and a few friends. The night before, he and I were talking about our intentions for the race. As it turns out, we had very different goals. Andy’s plan was to place in his age group. My plan was to have a nice, easy run and enjoy […]

What to Do about a Terrible Run

We’ve all been there. You head out the door with the best of intentions, but your run just feels terrible right from the beginning. Your breathing is off, there’s a weird pain in your foot, your bra strap is chafing you, you’re like a minute per mile slower than usual despite working really hard, and […]

Strength Training for Runners

I love strength training. We talk a lot about it in the Run Your Best Life group and there’s so much angst about the topic. “How much strength training should I do?” ”What do I do?” “Why do I need to do it?” What I focus on But just like getting the training runs in, […]

Failure Is ALWAYS an Option

Failure is always an option

We are a week into the 10K class in Run Your Best Life, and I am really loving how everyone is showing up like gangbusters for this class! It’s so much fun to be surrounded by women that are working hard on improving their lives through running AND through managing their minds. It’s a powerful […]
