I had to alter my training plan a bit to squeeze in the 10K race on Monday. I was due to run a 4.5 mile easy run next Tuesday, but instead I thought I would shift it up, run it today, then take two days off before the race, plus a day after the race …

I knew it was going to be one of those days. I had a meeting at 7am and a demo I had to give at 9am. When my schedule is like this the only way I can fit my training schedule in is to plan ahead. I can’t say this enough, if you have trouble …

So I had a busy day today but I really wanted to fit in the 40 minute tempo run my plan called for. Because I had an 8am meeting at work, a lunch date, and one of my boyfriends friends was staying on our couch I decided to commute in to work and run from …

Dragged my ass out of bed this morning for a 3 mile easy run. I was smart enough to leave my running jacket at work yesterday so I wore a long sleeve tech top and a fleece vest. By the end of my run I was actually really cold because I was wet. I actually …

I had a super fabulous run at lunch today! I was tired beforehand and after I felt so great. I love it when everything just clicks! It was 12C out, which is quite lovely, and the sunny was peeking in and out but not overwhelming. I went for my usual seawall lunch time route and …

I had a psychic moment this morning. I was about 9 or 10 minutes into my run and I thought to myself oh my god, where is my house key? I patted myself down and checked my pockets, twice. It was gone. Fuck.
Fuck, fuck fuck. I started retracing my steps at a slow jog …

First we should talk about my weekend runs. Yesterday I was hungover and ran 3 miles with a headache that refused to go away. It was through some of my favorite trails up near UBC but I wasn’t feeling it. In fact I actually went back to bed after I got home. Then today I …
