And yes, it's like registering for runDisney - have multiple browsers open, it will sell out in minutes. This...

    Marathon Weekend 2025

    The Trinity Health Seaway Run is June 29th in Muskegon. It's been several years since I've ran it, but I remember it being a flat and scenic course, might be a good one for POT.

    The Cumulus was my go-to shoe for years, but I stopped running in them over two years ago. I think the Cumulus 23 was the last model I had. I just hated the changes they were making to the shoe year after year. I'm running in Asics NovaBlast now and I am absolutely loving them!!

    You always need new running shoes. They are an investment in your health!! Even my husband can't argue with that logic. :P

    Discussion/support regarding "Next Level" by Simms & Yeager

    Just thought I'd give an update, to keep the conversation going...because women our age need to talk about these things!! Last week I was referred to a Women's Health Center and a PA that specializes in perimenopause/menopause. She was a great listener and I found her very helpful. We talked a...

    Following along, I'm forever on a hunt for the perfect sports bra. Ugh... My absolute favorite has been discontinued, the Brooks Juno, but I totally scored on Ebay recently and found 3 of them in my size that were like brand new!!

    January total: 70 miles A little less miles than I wanted, but I have successfully managed to strength train twice a week for the last 3 months - a HUGE win for me! I'm going into this weekend's Groundhog half marathon a bit undertrained, but plan to take it easy. @Baloo in MI Good luck on...

    I have run the Holland Haven half a few times. It's a nice flat course with some fun aid stations with yummy offerings, like blueberries and bacon. They usually have a great post race party with food and beverages too. I think the downside to this race is that you are sooo close to Lake...
