Run Girl Run is a blog that covers just about every aspect of health and fitness. While the primary focus is on my trials and tribulations training for various races, I also talk about my favorite types of exercises, experiences from my yoga instructor days and all kinds of nutrition stuff, with the occasional product review sprinkled in. Follow me as I overcome injury, try to balance a social life and beat back laziness to tackle the marathon, half marathon, 5K and every distance in between.

As you all know, I love me a good tailgate and with football season only a few weeks away, it's time to start figuring out how I'm going to balance half marathon training and tailgating.

Cornhole board

Spending six hours every Saturday at a tailgate and following that up with a football game leaves precious little time for the all-important weekend long run.

But after five years of balancing tailgate season with fall race season, I've got it down to a bit of a science. Today I'm sharing my tips on how to balance marathon training with tailgate season over on Ashley's blog.

Make sure you stop by and check it out.
