Falmouth Road Race Recap with Team Beef!
Disclosure: This post is sponsored by the Beef Checkoff’s Northeast Beef Promotion Initiative (NEBPI). All opinions expressed in this post are my own. This past weekend, I had the opportunity to visit Falmouth, Massachusetts – located in Cape Cod – for the Falmouth Road Race and Expo! I was there on behalf of the Northeast…
Brittany Fund 5K Race Review & Recap!
Disclosure: This post is sponsored; I was a race ambassador for the Brittany Fund 5K/10K. You may have noticed a lack of race recaps on the blog in the last few months – it’s been a while since I’ve raced! In fact, I think my last road race was in the fall, so I was…
Hudson Valley Farm to Fork Fondo Review & Recap!
Just got back from the Hudson Valley a few days ago, and let me tell you – the Farm to Fork Fondo was awesome. Beautiful scenery? Check. Challenging ride? Check. Farm-fresh treats at aid stations? Check. A CAMEL hanging out post race? Check. (Fo’ real – check out this photo!) I was so excited to…
Earth Rock Run Race Review & Recap!
Yahoo – I did my first big post-baby (March 2015) and post-injury (September 2015) race! I was training for a half marathon last October and had gotten back up to doing 7-8 miles comfortably, but then I injured my foot which led to a long process of letting the ligaments heal and building the strength…
Throwback Thursday: Maui Marathon Race Recap
Last week I posted this throwback Thursday photo of my friend Justine and me, which was taken right after we finished the Maui Marathon in 2010. That was my first (of two) full marathons, and was only really my 3rd endurance race at that point. I had done one sprint triathlon and one half marathon…
Color Run Boston 2015 Race Recap!
On Sunday, I was lucky enough to be able to participate in the Color Run Boston on behalf of Kohl’s! I’m part of this awesome blogger group, and they created a Kohl’s team – Team #Yes2You – for us to be a part of. That meant I got a free entry to the race, and…
The Color Run 5K Review & Recap
Keeping with my lucky streak of winning things, I happened to win an entry to the Color Run 5K through a giveaway on another blog. I’ve done a few other color runs, but never “The Color Run” which I believe was the original branded version that started the trend – so I was excited to…
Finish at the 50 5K Race Review and Recap
When I found out a few of my Couch Potato to 5K Runners were planning to take on the Finish at the 50 5K, I decided to join in on the fun. I’ve actually done the 10K version of this race several times before, but had never done the 5K. The 10K is a standard…
Ashland Sprint Triathlon Race Review & Recap
On Sunday, June 15th, I completed the Ashland Sprint Triathlon. This is the first time I’ve done this race, so I wasn’t sure what to expect. Of course, the night before the race, I do my normal googling of course maps and race reviews, which pretty much always causes me to freak out. I was…
