Thank you for stopping by!

This is my blog about finding The Right "Fit." I'm an avid runner, marathon enthusiast, and fitness experimentalist who uses my little space of the internet to share my passion for and experiences with running and fitness (...and a little about fashion.)

I write mostly about running and my quest to run a marathon in every state and every continent. But you'll also find some information about different fitness classes in the Twin Cities and more.

Welcome! Read More…

She arrived Wednesday (I had to work, but we did pop up to the Hampstead high street for a crepe!), dinner at Mallow (plant based restaurant at Borough Market, five stars! 🌟) followed by a singalong at the Room Where It Happens, a morning trail run through the Heath extension, Highgate Cemetery tour, dinner at Lost Souls pizza 🍕, a morning run along the Thames followed by the National Portrait Gallery & Selfridges (mostly for Jelly Cats for my niece), and then an incredible Brandi Carlile “gig” at the Royal Albert Hall (with an Elton John spotting …love it when she visits 🥰

May 2025 highlights: a trip to Wales to support Dustin running a 50km trail race, (hiked Snowdonia solo while he ran), “Bark Jacobs” with Ruthie, runs with friends, including a run to see all the Chelsea In Bloom flowers, “Here we are” at the National theatre, Ruth’s 6th birthday at the movies 🍿, Hackney rooftop saunas and more walks in the Heath. Chill but great month 💕

April 2025 highlights! Paris marathon followed by a few nights in Reims tasting champagne, an Easter weekend in Norfolk (UK), cheering for friends at the London marathon…and dogs of course. Always dogs! 🐶

Marathon #47, the 2025 Paris Marathon!

It was my “PW” time in quite a while (except the wine marathon in Médoc but that doesn’t really count 😆) but after taking several weeks off at an important time of the training block due to a tendon injury (and battling a cold on race day 🤧) I am still proud of myself and happy to have completed another marathon. Thanks to @donalmorancoaching for coaching me through the injury (I’m the first to admit I’m terrible when injured 😑- he’s very patient and thoughtful with his guidance)
.
Paris is a lovely course, showing off the best parts of the city with brilliant crowd support, good weather (maybe a little warm), followed by a few days in Reims for champagne tasting with @dustinrbenson & @emariecantu made for a memorable experience with lots of laughs 🥳

March in London was actually sunny and warm(ish), making up for the dreary months prior (weather-wise and mentally!)
.
Started the month with a day trip to hike Seven Sisters (so pretty!), a cautious return to running, a colour analysis (I’m a cool summer!) flowers, birds, a bit more running…and an official extension of our visas, guess we are here for a few more years 🥳

February 2025: Started with a lot of running (too much?), a Paul Mescal play (so-so), a Rami Malek play (incredible!) a rainy Taylor themed 5k, but ended with a strained (torn) soleus muscle which presented as Achilles pain at the insertion point. Two weeks off of running (so far), physio, dry needling, shockwave therapy, and sports massage…I’m not sure if I’ll be running the Paris marathon in a few weeks but I’m doing all the spin (Psycle) and pilates (Heartcore) to try to retain a bit of fitness but another bummer month in the sh*tshow year of 2025.

But…in dog news, Ruth is getting all the love as an only child and lots of local adventures and walkies! 💙

January 2025. Started off really rough with saying goodbye to my best friend Matilda…there was some running, some races, a work trip to NYC, & a snowboarding trip to Switzerland. But happy to put this month behind me. On to February…
