It's about time...
So I have finally signed up for two races this spring. Even though I have been running more than ever, I have been reluctant to test out my pace in a race. In the past I have participated in some huge races and some really small ones - hands down my favourites have to be the smaller ones. So, I did some research and signed up for a couple of really small ones. My family is joining in as well,...

Ran like a deer... in my eyes
I ventured out for my run today, it was a beautiful, sunny, crisp morning … but wow was I tired, my legs felt like bricks … I ended up cutting my distance by a few km by heading back home on a different route, a more icy one I might add. On the way I encountered a few young deer who were also running and walking and standing still. So today I considered my run to be “deer...

Encouragement is a powerful tool
Everyone needs encouragement - we are the same that way. Whether we are striving for a 30 minute 5 km, a sub 40 minute 10 km, or to get the job we are after … having someone believe that we can do it is powerful.
Having said that, we need to also believe in ourselves to truly accomplish our goals. If we don’t think we can PR a race, chances are it just isn’t going to...

maybe it's all in my head... and that is good
So I have made it through running everyday of what I consider to be the toughest months to run… January and February. The days were short and cold, and there were times when I just wanted to sit in front of the fireplace instead of layering up and going outside in the cold and snow. But I was committed.
A few of my motivating factors included that that I wanted feed my love of running and...

Lazy day run ...
My husband was attending the conference all day so today was my day. The little ski village that we were staying (near Lillehammar) was quiet and so I did not feel the need to be busy. The weather in Norway has been unseasonably warm so when I headed out on my run this morning, I just wore my running capri’s and a long sleeved T. The sun was shining brightly, the snow was melting quickly...
