It wasn't so long ago that I imagined 5 miles to be farther than I would ever run - it just didn't seem like a distance that I would ever be able to run. My, how life changes... On the snowy morning that was Sunday, the Lunar B*tches united and ran one of the most … Continue reading Doing the Delmar Dash – 2016

Taking a hike with a runner
My very first vacation with my former husband was a trip to Washington State where we spent a week or so camping and hiking.

When you factor in that I’ll be away with a couple of my best girlfriends exploring bourbon a new city, I get almost a little giddy. Good times are ahead and I’m ready for them! Last … Continue reading It’s the most wonderful time of the year…
