A lovely weekend relaxing and celebrating @kalibmathieu. Happy birthday, Kalib! So thankful for all of these new friends, human and animal.

Oh, and my man made that cake! 🤤

Hello!

I’ve been on a teensy intermittent hiatus lately because of work, but also because of this: I ran a sub-four-hour marathon!

I’ve been pushing myself beyond my limits where I can, and I’m back to feeling fit, strong, well, confident, and dancy!

Thanks to @frontrunnerslex for providing the inspiration, community, plan, and joy. Special thanks to @kalibmathieu , @steele_builds , @jschubs22 , and @sarac520 for being the BEST training group. Love you all! I can’t wait to do it again (except I can because OUCH) 😅❤️

Christie Clinic Illinois Half Marathon

Had fun celebrating my friends’ races. Many of them were running for the first time. And I set a lil PR: 1:44:11!

And, best of all, I remembered to start my Strava this time 😉

I love running because it’s one of the few things in life you can’t lie, cheat, or halfass your way through. The distance is the distance and your time is your time. Sometimes the training, weather, friend support, crowd support, and everything else aligns and the run is perfect.

Today it didn’t, and I didn’t get my goal time or a new PR. But I’m still very happy with my time of 4:21:50!!

The Illinois Marathon was a great course with great crowd support. Thankful for the incredible friends who trained with me over the last for months, ran with me today, and for the incredible Frontrunners community that came with this weekend. We had almost 20 runners between the full, half, and 10K! I love this sport.

Time to start training for the next one!

Yesterday was an unhappy day, because we had to say goodbye to our sweet wonderful boy Buzz. He was almost 13 years old, and aside from the last few days, he was happy and healthy his entire life. We feel so lucky we got to be his dads, and we’re going to miss him terribly.

Buzz is the reason Kalib and I met. When we were next door neighbors, Buzz jumped the backyard fence one day to get to Kalib. I went to get him back and met my future husband. It’s the only time Buzz ever jumped a fence, but it seems he’d scoped out who he wanted his other dad to be, so he made it happen.

When I moved to Atlanta for grad school, at first I didn’t know anyone in town. But I had Buzz with me, so I wasn’t lonely. He kept me company and helped make my new house feel like home. He was just happy to go on a new adventure with me, to have a new yard to play in and new sniffs to sniff.

Buzz was there for all the big moments of my life the past 13 years, and for the small ones too. I’m thankful to have so many good memories with him. I love you, Buzzy 💛
