 2 comments I mentioned earlier this winter that I began training for a half marathon along with another mama friend. I had a plan, all the best intentions, and a support network in place to help me achieve this goal. But then…I fell off the training wagon. Hard. I could list all sorts of reasons I . . . → Read More: Shifted Perspective on Athletic Goals March 6th, 2013
2 comments There’s a GI bug circulating around…well, basically everywhere. It’s at my older son’s preschool. It’s all over my play group.

After retiring from . . . → Read More: Marathon Training With A Nursling In Tow December 31st, 2012
2 comments In my former life, I was a rugby player. I began playing when I was a freshmen at Penn State University and continued playing on adult women’s club teams until I got pregnant with my second child. Over the course of playing rugby, I really learned what it meant to be fit, to train . . . → Read More: Exercise And The Nursing Mama: Getting Back Into The Game |
