December 25, 2017 By Jessie Benson 6 Comments

Happy Holidays! I hope everyone had a great long weekend. I'm a little behind in my weekly recap, since I was focused on publishing my 3 Bridges Marathon recap- check it out! As I mentioned in that recap of the 3 Bridges Marathon, Jess and I will no longer be hosting our link-up, so today I'm just linking up with HoHo Runs/Mississippi Piddlin to share my training details.

Fitting Remarks: Training for the New York City Marathon

October 26, 2017 By Jessie Benson 6 Comments

As I approach the final few days of training/tapering for the New York City Marathon, I thought it would be fun to look back on the training, week by week. I started "training" for the NYC marathon 18 weeks out, which was 2 weeks after I paced my sister Erin at Grandma's Marathon (if you missed that post, read it here! Oh, how I love pacing friends and family!) 18 weeks- This week Continue Reading

October 8, 2017 By Jessie Benson 16 Comments

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? That post had lots of pics!) P.S. Congrats to everyone who ran the Chicago Marathon today! It sounds like it was a tough day out there. I had one woman that I coach who ran and it sounds like the heat was Continue Reading

Weekly Recap: Home Sweet Home!

September 3, 2017 By Jessie Benson 23 Comments

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.
