A sneak peak into what I am planning for 2018
First ever trail race
My first ever trail race! What an epic experience. I absolutely loved the day, from the start until the end. The views were spectacular. The weather was pretty darn near perfect, even if it got a bit warm midway through the race. When I signed up for Rick's 5.22 mile (Jesi mislabeled the picture with … Continue reading First ever trail race
It hurts…
Oh god, everything hurts today. Yesterday I had some slight discomfort in my glutes but today I have pain in my glutes and my quads. They always say that two days out is usually the worst and I would agree. Add on top of that I got up and ran this morning. I didn't want … Continue reading It hurts…

I had participated one year with a friend but hadn't sense. Regina had mentioned it a few times over the last couple weeks. While … Continue reading Running to a race
