Let’s start with some quick math...take your body weight divided by 2 = total ounces needed each day. Now that you know how much H2O you need let’s chat how to achieve that amount to reach optimum hydration... Being hydrated properly supports sustained energy, proper digestion, skin elasticity, regulates blood pressure, aides in reducing bloating,... Continue Reading →
Leading up to race weekend for this event I was reminded just how amazing my Oiselle team is. We all live very different lives with ups and downs, but at the core of what connects us is the true compassion and love we have for each other. The goals we each have are celebrated and...

"3rd time is a charm" or at least that is what I was hoping for this year as I registered for the Titletown Ultra Series. 3 years ago Titletown was my 1st ultra distance event. That year I ran 28 miles in 6 hours and proudly entered in the ultra club...to say I was hooked... Continue Reading →
Going into this race I brought with me a whole lot of baggage in the form of self-doubt! This was to be my 1st solo event since the Fall 50 in October and I had a pretty disastrous training cycle over the winter. In talking with coach Nora (Team Bird Training) we adjusted my goal...

Last marathon of 2016! What a year it has been. Getting prepared for this event I knew I was in for a battle, but I love this race and would not miss it for the world. Coming off my 1st 50 mile race 2 weeks prior to Milwaukee Running Festival the chance that this was... Continue Reading →

In 2015 I ran the relay with an amazing group of friends one of which mentioned half way... Continue Reading →

I will never forget my experience in 2015. The day started out chilly and windy, but the energy of the runners warmed me... Continue Reading →
I've had my eye on the Lake Michigan Marathon for a few years, but it has fallen on the same weekend as the No Frills event in Minoqua. When I realized that the events were on separate weekends in 2016 I was thrilled! This event fit perfect in my schedule to prepare for the... Continue Reading →
I have never run a night race and was thrilled when my friend Katie asked if I would like to join her for this 1/2 in Sheboygan. Summer in Wisconsin has been sticky and hot so the thought of racing in cooler evening conditions sounded AMAZING!!! (Too bad that is not how it went, but... Continue Reading →
The HHH50k holds a special place in my heart. Last year it was my 1st 50k race. Looking back and reflecting on that race I was so nervous! I truly had no idea what I was up against and doubted if I could complete 31 miles. Stepping up to the start line I was a... Continue Reading →
