Life after training?!

I always have a really hard time adjusting from training , training, training back to just normal weekly work outs.

Megatransect 2013 Recap

Friday afternoon, my dad, husband and myself ventured back down to Lock Haven, PA for the Megatransect. If you haven't heard of the Mega, it's an endurance trail race through the mountains. This year, it included 5,300 feet of climbing elevation, raw trails, boulder fields and of course, that last green mile. I would place this years mileage around 32-34 miles.

Fall Favorites!

Sunday was dedicated to a 3 hour training run on the trails with my dad and husband.

New Year, New You!

I took today off from work so I would have two short weeks in a row. It feels nice to be home. I'm sitting on the couch right now, relaxing with a this:

It's a pomegranate seltzer with a splash of apple juice. Soooo good! Seltzer has seriously helped me curb my diet Pepsi addiction. Ethan's at school and Maya is up in her room, not napping, but reading some books and having "quiet time". I'm pretending that I am rich and don't work :-) AND I may or may not have a mask on my face right now AND Kitchen Nightmares may or may not be on my TV.

Happy 2013!

I'm waiting patiently to sign up for the Megatransect at 12noon...it will close out in 10 mins!! Wish me luck!!

Here's a quick youtube vid for your enjoyment.

And here's my dad climbing one of the Boulder Fields:

That's a fairly easy looking terrain, right?? :-)
