by Chic Runner
posted November 30, 2010 at 9:10pm

Its been a little more than a week since my marathon and I've been thoroughly enjoying my week of recovery.

This morning I got up early and left my bed that was warm and cozy, shedding the sheets that had enveloped me for the past six and a half hours. I pried open my eyes to put in my contacts. Blinking a few times, they were in place. I pulled the long gray s...more

posted November 16, 2010 at 9:49am
I’ve always been the type of person who gives my best. That is…unless it was time to practice. In years past, I was not what you would call a “practice person.” In my mind, I didn’t quite see the correlation. When it came time to be competit...more
