Summer Running: A Few Tips for Warm-weather Training

Wednesday, June 26, 2013


 
If you haven't decided on summer plans yet, I suggest taking up running!  What else are you going to do with all that sunshine and extra time?  

Last summer catapulted my running to a new level with more consistent time on the road.  Marathon training had just begun and I was feeling stronger and more fit everyday.  It was hard but, what can I say?  I like running outside.

Cameo: Say Hello to the Altra Torin

Sunday, June 16, 2013

I have wanted to get a pair of zero drop shoes for almost as long as I've known about minimalist running.  When my doctor recommended that I use a shoe with more cushioning to help with my injury, I immediately thought my zero drop dreams were over. 

Then, I stumbled upon Altra Zero Drop Footwear and the Altra Torin.

Girl, Why You Runnin'?: Part II

Happy National Running Day.

In honor of the now belated occasion I thought I'd finally get to the post about why I choose to lace up most days of the week and subject myself to what most people view as torture.

I was not always a runner.  In fact, I never dreamed I'd like running.  The Love of running for me came on slowly.

Song writer Mark Altrogee penned,

"You are beautiful beyond description,
Too marvelous for words,
Too wonderful for comprehension,
Like nothing ever seen or heard.
Who can grasp your infinite wisdom?
Who can fathom the depth of your love?
You are beautiful beyond description,
Majesty enthroned above."

Looking out at the ocean always reminds me of this song.
