We left off with me buying my first LSAT books. I was excited to start studying, I knew nothing about what was on the LSATs but I knew that a good score meant acceptance and scholarships. I won't bore you with the details, studying was pretty grueling and not often fun but I did learn… Continue reading Hiatus Recap Part 2

March For Science
I'm gonna get on my soapbox this Friday. Learn more about the March For Science here. Back to our regularly scheduled program next week. Those who know me IRL know that I am a huge science enthusiast. Honestly the jobs I wanted growing up were to be an astronaut, or a NASA engineer. Unfortunately… Continue reading March For Science

Happy Monday everyone! Hope everyone had a great holiday weekend. The weather was actually pretty decent. We went to the Minneapolis Institute of Arts to see Guillermo del Toro: At Home With Monsters . It was awesome, I highly recommend checking it out especially if you love his movies. Anyway, on with Motivation Monday. Motivation is… Continue reading #motivationmonday

Alright this is something that I've struggled with and I feel at the age of 32 I should have figured something out, but I haven't. Ladies, how do you find the motivation to run or workout the first day or two of your period? Seriously I have ZERO energy and between the cramps and other… Continue reading #motivationmonday
Workplace Inadequacy
I still struggle with this even after being in the workforce full time now for a decade. Definitely not as much as before, but every once and a while I get the Sunday scaries. I will obsessively check my work email for things that I missed, check calendars for meetings I'm unprepared for. 99% of… Continue reading Workplace Inadequacy

Okay so confession time: After my stress fracture I basically fell off the fitness wagon. Which is so shameful to admit when prior to that unfortunate incident I was running 16+ miles (somewhat) easy peasy. Marathon training is grueling and there are a lot of things, for me at least, that I have to cut… Continue reading Fitness
Nike Training Club
I'm a pretty big fan of strength training. In fact I switched marathon training plans because I wanted one that incorporated more strength training. I love running but running 4-5 days a week is just too much for me. Plus by the time my "cross train" day came around I was too exhausted to even… Continue reading Nike Training Club

Guys, my 12 mile run Saturday was brutal. Honestly I didn't expect it to be that hard, it was only 12 miles which should have been relatively easy however the route I planned was....well soul crushing. The first half was great, went by quickly and I was feeling good. Then it all went downhill. Or… Continue reading #marathonmonday
Halfway There
I'm just about halfway through marathon training and while I'm definitely not feeling burnout like I did the last time, it's slowly creeping in. I'm at the point where I have mild aches, soreness everyday. Also tired. Not in a, I didn't get enough sleep or eat well and I feel sluggish tired. Just...tired. I… Continue reading Halfway There
Man Makers
I referenced these in this post and thought I'd follow up with what they actually are. They're better than a burpee, better than regular old plank rows and better than push ups, squats and overhead presses...because it combines all of them. I can get through burpees easy peasy these days and a 5-6 minute planking series… Continue reading Man Makers
