Since Boston, I have taken a little blog hiatus. Partially because I have been really busy, and partially because I didn’t know what to talk about.
Life has been really busy lately, but busy in great ways. Family, friends, work and a new home have been occupying most of my time. And after my 7 week hiatus, I am ready to add the blog back to my list of items filling my time. And in a few weeks, I will also have running back on my list of priorities.
After each of my half or full marathons, I have taken a break from running. I have a tendency to get burnt out with the sport, especially with the time training consumes. If I don’t give myself a break, I fear that I will lose my love for the sport and not enjoy it as much.
In a month, I will start training again. But until then, I will most likely be writing blog posts that aren’t as much about running, but more about life!
Here are some highlights of my life in the last few weeks:
Celebrated my friend Laura getting married!
Experience what a professional photo shoot is like!! (This was for the July issue of Runner’s World. While this photo did not make the paper version, some of my other photos and quotes did! It was a really cool experience to be involved with)
Partied with friends for Stacy’s 40th birthday!
Celebrated my Girls on the Run group running their 5k!
Met baby Charlotte 🙂
Spent time with my family in Kentucky
BOUGHT A HOUSE!!!!!
Accidentally got beat by Ramsey at the Hospital Hill half marathon!
Celebrated Ramsey’s 30th birthday with friends.
Took professional photos with my Grandma Clark, all her grandchildren, and all the quilts she handmade for each of us.
Talked about my underwear in the July Issue of Runner’s World! Be careful what you say in an interview! hehe!
I hope your last few weeks have been wonderful as well!
Thank you for all the continued support and love. You guys are the best!!!
