Babies and Boston
by Byline to Finish Line posted October 6, 2010 at 11:56am
It was one of those amazing weekends.
First, my sister-in-law gave birth to the next generation of Moritz on Saturday. Ellie came into the world on my brother’s birthday, the day I wrote about what a great dad he would be. Clearly the girl has an impec...more

Deserving
by My so-called FABULOUS life: Brianna Glenn posted October 4, 2010 at 3:36pm
I hate asking for money, no matter what the circumstances. But sometimes, like when people advertise that they’d like to give away money to people if they’re able to demonstrate that they need it and deserve it in order to pursue their dreams, it wou...more

I used to love the mornings
by Stephanie Perleberg: Believe and Run On! posted September 29, 2010 at 4:12pm
I believe I wrote a blog a while back about how much I LOVE the morning time. I used to love getting to wake up, eating my breakfast, sip on some deliciously French vanilla flavored coffee, and watch the boob tube (hm... maybe I should rephrase that. Lang...more

Celebration Ride Philly to NYC (part two)
by Sarah Stanley Inspired posted September 28, 2010 at 11:32pm
I am sure you are on pins and needles- did I eat a cupcake? No, of course not. Smart ass.
After cruising through Princeton, NJ (I swear I’m smarter now!) it was on to other towns. I forget the names. They all blended together. It was getter hotter a...more

Burn of the brain
by Alison M. Starnes Blog posted September 27, 2010 at 8:44pm
I have to admit something. I try to be positive most of the time, but some days riding a bike is like pulling teeth. It sucks. Plain and simple. I am sorry, Mom, I have no other way to put it. It just sucks.
Today was one of those days. Why? ...more

The Art of Doing Nothing
by My so-called FABULOUS life: Brianna Glenn posted September 27, 2010 at 5:38pm
I’ve found that the “idea” of sitting around and doing nothing is far more enticing than the practice of it. By the end of the season I am exhausted both mentally and physically. I eagerly await my season coming to an end so that I can do ab.solut...more

"When the going gets tough..."
by Eat. Play. Love. posted September 26, 2010 at 2:41pm
As was expected, I had my first breakdown last week about being so far away from home. I knew it was bound to happen sooner or later, and was actually surprised I held out without a breakdown for almost a month. In a conversation with a friend who'd pla...more

Next up: Too many choices
by Byline to Finish Line posted September 21, 2010 at 2:13pm
Covering collegiate teams means getting to hear all kinds of music. And while it doesn’t always become my favorite, often the songs get stuck in my head, forcing me to fork over my money to iTunes so I can put the song in my rotation and either decide I...more

I'm in Colorado Springs hanging out with Russ and his awesome parents! Last week, he and I walked eleven miles into the woods (uphill, haha) to get to the Emerald Lakes in the Weminuche Wilderness of Southwest Colorado near Durango. It was my first back...more

Travels with Hillary: Geneva!
by Eat. Play. Love. posted September 19, 2010 at 9:57pm
Friday afternoon a few of my teammates took me into Geneva to walk around, learn some of the history, and shop for new sneakers (I have lots of blisters from the old sneakers I’ve been wearing). Unfortunately a good pair of basketball shoes here are 200...more

Celebration Ride Day Two
by Sarah Stanley Inspired posted September 17, 2010 at 1:15am
It was a VERY long day. Even a few tears. Driving to Philly from Baltimore is one thing, riding on a bike is another (trust me on that).
The day started out late. I spent 2 hours the previous night trying to upload a video and then never loaded. I was ...more

Cake, ice cream and a bike
by Sarah Stanley Inspired posted September 14, 2010 at 3:04pm
Here it is, almost 3:30am in the morning. I’ve been up for the last hour and a half because my BlackBerry decided that TODAY was the day to be become corrupted. Kill me.
If you have been under a rock, snow cave or generally not aware that good things...more

Starbucks led me to God
by Eat. Play. Love. posted September 13, 2010 at 5:13pm
I ventured out Sunday morning wanting to see the city of Lausanne. I had read that the city was Switzerland’s San Francisco, a city built upon steep hills that tower over Lake Geneva. I would have to say that during my trip I found some meaning to the s...more

Upon first entering the work force out of college I was faced with something new and unique — two weeks of paid vacation.
Granted, I had taken vacations before with my family. My parents, younger brother and I would pile into the family car for visits ...more

by Run Girl Run posted September 7, 2010 at 10:30am
Tailgating season started this weekend, and I have to say, it's about time!
In fact, everyone was very excited to see each other.
We had beautiful weather for both our Friday and Sunday tailgates. It was great to get together with friends I haven't s...more

Closer to Fine
by Byline to Finish Line posted August 28, 2010 at 5:44pm
The admission should have been a warning sign, but since it caught me off guard I completely missed its prophetic properties. The guy I was dating wondered if I was a lesbian after noticing that my music collection contained a large number of female artis...more

Learning...the hard way.
by My so-called FABULOUS life: Brianna Glenn posted August 23, 2010 at 2:47pm
What’s this?! Another blog about an unimpressive meet? Yea, I’m sure you want to read it only slightly more than I feel like writing it. There is only so much to say about a topic that seems to be a reoccurring theme and I’m not a fan of broken rec...more
