Race Recap: Rock n Roll San Diego 2019
I really did not want to do this race. REALLY did not want to. What I looked forward to most was the distraction of a weekend race…as well as In-n-Out. I was really just going through the motions of the race weekend. It was nice to see all of my friends again, who wanted to…

Race Recap: Rock n Roll Denver Half Marathon 2018
This is my third time running the Rock n Roll Denver half marathon. However, this was the first time I didn’t live a block away from the start line! Over the weekend, I received a lovely nuun shipment! I added a few extra flavors to my standards: watermelon and tropical fruit. Together, they taste like…

Race Recap: Rock n Roll Savannah Half Marathon 2018
I had been wanting to run Rock n Roll Savannah since 2012. It was one of the first races I registered for when I bought my first tour pass. My goal was always to run the full marathon, but I came up very short on training time. My longest run had been 17 miles on…

Race Recap: Rock n Roll Las Vegas Half Marathon 2018
Las Vegas is a fun city. It is more fun in November when you get to run on the Las Vegas Strip in the evening! I’ve generally had a pretty good time at this race in the past, but the day before the race I came down with a cold. It was such bad timing…

Race Recap: Hot Chocolate 15K Denver 2018
This was single-handly one of the most fun races I’ve done…ever! The Hot Chocolate series is a multi-city race circuit that includes 5K and 15K distances. I wish they actually went up to the half marathon distance, but I can see how these distances actually make the race more approachable and fun. My husband was…

Race Recap: Rock n Roll San Antonio Half Marathon 2018
I’ve ran a few races in Texas, but this was probably the first one that actually went well! Because of my previous trips, I didn’t go in expecting much, and I left the race really happy with everything. It was a big change from my previous performances in Texas! It was a quick turnaround trip.…

Race Recap: Rock n Roll Montreal Half Marathon 2018
There is something so special about international races. Perhaps it’s because I’m out of my element, or because some of the street signs are in a foreign language. It’s just far enough away from home to make it feel special again. This race took me to…Canada! The journey to Canada took about six hours from…

Race Recap: Rock n Roll San Diego Half Marathon 2018
This race weekend took me to lovely, lovely San Diego! It’s so hard not to love this sun-drenched city. This was the first city where I actually got to enjoy my Hall of Fame status! Coming to San Diego, I feel strangely sad that I am not doing the Hall of Fame this year. It’s…

Race Recap: Rock n Roll New Orleans 2018
It’s hard to believe we’re three months in to 2018 already. Time is flying. We headed to New Orleans for my birthday weekend. My best friend booked a ticket to The Big Easy to join in on the fun. I don’t actually recall when we’ve ever traveled anywhere together aside from family trips, so it…
