Hello family and friends!As many of you know, I'm turning 30 on June 20th. As fewer of you may know, I am running the Grandma's Marathon in Duluth, MN on June 18th.

Boston 2011
Pre-RaceFollowing my 3:18 marathon in January, my plan was to add 2 easy weeks onto Pfitz’s 12-weeks-between-marathon plan and basically decide along the way what my time goal would be.

Fun with Photoshop.
Last week I finally brought a camera on one of my runs. It was my way of slowing my effort down in an attempt to see if that is why my legs had felt so crappy lately. It had the additional side effect of making me appreciate what is around me. So, the fruits of… Continue reading Fun with Photoshop.
