August 25, 2014 A little over 2 months before NYC - yikes!!  Speaking of NYC, I received an email about their new marathon merchandise, what do you think?  I am a bit indifferent at the moment, I do not think I will pre-order anything and will wait for the expo (more options + a little superstitious).

Weekly Workout/Training in Review 5/25-5/31

June 2, 2014 I love short work weeks - I had a relaxing weekend with some of my favorite people and caught up on some much needed sleep! I think (and hope) my schedule is back to “normal” next week. This was a much better workout week than last week.  Although the number of rest days were greater than the number of exercise days, I am glad it was not zero.  Sunday 5/25 - Rest day Monday 5/26 - Rest day Tuesday…

Weekly Workout/Training in Review 5/11-5/24

May 26, 2014 Happy Memorial Day!  Thanks to those who served our country.  I hope everyone is enjoying their long weekend, whether it be away, at home, or at the pool!  I definitely needed this long weekend!! As you may have noticed - it was pretty quiet on the blogging + tweeting + commenting front.  In the past two weeks I worked insane hours (150 + nearing project completion) - which left little time for sleeping or writing.   Because more…

Weekly Workout/Training in Review 4/27-5/3

May 5, 2014 This past week I battled a cold.  After a lovely Saturday, I woke up the next morning with a sore throat and congestion.  I had a nice brunch with my college roommate and a chance to catch up with one of my good friends from business school - by the end of the day I was exhausted and achy.  Although I had planned to increase my mileage this week, I knew it was better to rest (a…
