Local #10k setting a PR in everything under and including the distance. Meant to practice my #marathon race pace…mile 3 was unexpected tbh. A 10 min drop from a year ago #training #running #runsky #goonemore #taper

Met some deer on my #run through the regional park this week along with a beautiful sunset. Only 2 weeks to go! #firstmarathon #training #runsky #running #sunset #rockymountains #deer

And that’s a wrap on my build season for my #firstmarathon! Moving into a 3 week taper next. Excited to explore #nyc #centralpark yesterday for my 20 miler. #running #runsky #marathon #goonemore #newyork

Another rough week, but pushing through it. Wrapped up with an #18-miler. Only 4 weeks until my first #marathon in Fort Worth, Tx! Free trial of #strava is interesting, not sure I’ll subscribe. I’m happy running at my current weight after losing 40 lbs over 1.5 yrs.

It’s been a rough week. My last living grandmother passed and today is her funeral. Training was rough, but manageable at a lower elevation #20miler #marathon #running #runsky

Another week down with my longest run ever. Longest week of mileage topping out at 34 miles. It’s strange hitting new milestones for something I started over 22 years ago #marathon #training #strengthtraining #longestrun #runsky

Deload week went well with all the chaos of family visiting. Had a great time seeing everyone and our nieces and nephews! 26.2 miles ran, 7.25 miles biked, and 16,000 pounds lifted #marathon #running #runsky #strength

Another week down, and…we’ve got snowwwwwww!!! #marathontraining #runsky #running #cosnow

Only two more workouts to wrap up the week. Broncos game and we’ll see how I feel after that. Short week week meaning trying to cram it all in two days #marathontraining #strengthtraining #runsky #goonemore #broncos #denver

That’s a wrap on deload week, managed to get the miles in between all the holiday parties but not the strength training #marathontraining #runsky #running #firstmarathon

Last week’s wrap up of 26 miles, and 2 gym workouts while working on dialing in my nutrition with some new recipes. Bison quesadillas with black beans and rice. Ground bison and sweet potato bowl.

A few runs and traveling to see family this week. Much easier running when it’s cool and a lower elevation

I really hate flu season. Praying this cough will not stick around much longer. 6 days was 5 too many 😭

Dropping 50 minutes off my time from a year ago and only walked a handful of times. Will be practicing short sprints for the single track passing large groups was tough. #trailrunning #halfmarathon #marathontraining #strengthtraining

Another week down. Happy we found a gym with a pool for me to start swimming. Lap pools are so much different than swimming in a pond, who knew 🤷 #marathon #training #swim #strength #raceweek #halfmarathon

Weekly wrap up leading into training weekend. Next week’s the #backcountry #hm in highlands ranch. Another busy week for work, almost like everyone’s scrambling to get submittals in before the holidays 😅 #marathon #training #strengthtraining

My first community run that wasn’t a race yesterday was a lot of fun! I almost stepped on this little guy on today’s run. From what I can tell, it’s a western terrestrial garter snake 🐍 #runsky #running #marathon #training #snakes

Yesterday was a nice run at sunset. #running #runsky #easyrun

One workout done. Another licensing test this afternoon, and of course work decides to demand 3x what it has over the last few months in 3 days. Can’t catch a break, oh well, that’s life! #marathon #training #runsky #running #earlyrun

Back at it for the week. I wish my team would’ve handled more of the work while I was out than wait for me to get back and finish it. Autumn is my favorite season #running #runsky #marathon #training

Tried to get back into my normal rhythm and should’ve just done an easy run instead. #runsky #running #sprint #marathontraining

That’s a wrap on our Ireland/Scotland anniversary and birthday trip! 11.5 hour flight and layovers to get home. Excited to be back to a regular schedule and start my #marathon training program #travel #scotland #ireland #halfmarathon #garmin

Only a minute off the prediction, surprised and pleased. Really sore though and likely will be tomorrow. Finished the day with a wine and italian food to celebrate being closer to 40 than 30 now #runsky #halfmarathon #running #glasgow #ajbell

It’s #raceday! Excited for the #AJBellGreatScottishRun. Finally made it to Glasgow late last night and had amazing food at #MharsantaRestaurant&Bar. Between the travel and sickness, my focus is having fun. #runsky #halfmarathon #running #goonemore #grateful #bday

Our trip to #Ireland is coming to a close. What a brilliant trip it’s been. Now, off we go to #Scotland! #belfast #kilkenny #dublin
