Hello, hello! I'm here with my weekly recap of training for the Houston Marathon, which is 7 weeks away! These next few weeks will be 'peak' training time for the race. It's getting a bit intense! Here's how training went this past week: Monday: 9 miles at a 9:08 min/mile, run commute to work. The trails were clear, though it was quite chilly (in the teens.)

Weekly Recap: Four Weeks Until The New York City Marathon
Happy Sunday! Today's post will be short and sweet. It was a relatively uneventful week. I don't even have very many pictures to share...(but did you check out my Ragnar Trail recap?

Weekly Recap: Home Sweet Home!
My first full week back in the United States- woo-hoo! I had a great experience in India, but there's no place like home.
