So, St. Patrick’s Day was supposed to be about personal records and rededication to running by completing my second 1/2 marathon.

This might be one of the hardest posts I’ve written. I have a confession to make, I am a food addict. I self-medicate my emotions with food and pretend that everything is ok. I eat a box of Girl Scout cookies just because I can’t sleep and then post about my workout like it can … [Read more…]

I have been struggling with my depression and anxiety which makes my energy super low. It’s not because of the program, I actually have loved the workouts I’ve gotten in. They are … [Read more…]
So yesterday’s workout was Day 40. I am official half way through this program. I have to admit, the first two weeks of this Phase has not been great. I traveled home for my Grandmother’s memorial service and after that just had no motivation. I pushed through some workouts but missed a couple as … [Read more…]
