He is risen!
I have vivid memories of my mom singing this over and over every Easter. Now I can’t say or read those words without singing them and hearing her voice in my head. Thank you mom for the way you raised me.
Hello 7, 8, 9 miles….
So I am now two weeks away from my first ever half marathon. Am I freaked out, even just a little bit? No. I feel like I have trained to the best of my ability and by switching my diet around last week (plant based foods FTW) this past weekend was the strongest and best run I think I have ever accomplished. I feel prepared and I am at peace with this life changing decision. Exercising for the rest of my life? Check.Giving up diet sodas? Maybe. I am really looking forward to this race and I can’t wait to post pictures from the finish line.
Yes: it was the hoodie’s fault. A hooded sweatshirt can make an innocent teen look like a criminal — just like a suit and glasses can make Geraldo Rivera look like a journalist.

Another 7 miles down
6 more miles to go.
I can not believe I am almost half through a half marathon. Crazy stuff. In 4 weeks, Big D will be here.
6 lbs down, a million more to go. (okay, maybe not a million)
