Be Kind, Happy, & Active
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 →
Woah! High Cliff Ultra 25k was an adventure. Last year I was unable to race due to a work trip my husband had in San Fran, so I was unaware that the course had changed. Holy bananas!!!! I was not ready for the climbing and when I say climbing think on hands and knees scaling... Continue Reading →
It's been a hot minute since I wrote a race recap! My last race was my 40th marathon in 2018. Yikes. It has been quite the year to say the least. Titletown Ultra Series holds a special place in my heart, it was my 1st ultra race. It still gives me that warm fuzzy feeling... Continue Reading →
I started this post to write a race recap, but quickly it evolved into something else. To be real and totally transparent I lost my groove after the Cellcom Marathon. For 3 years I had my head down and was putting in the work to achieve my goal of 40 marathons by my 40th birthday. ... Continue Reading →
"Do you think we will get dirty? Yep, there are a few places on the trail that are a little muddy." This is a conversation we heard at the start line of the Apple Creek 50k this past Saturday. I laughed...if the course was anything like it was last year there were going to... Continue Reading →
We need to get rid of the word "only" from our vocabulary. Things are not "only", they just are and the fact that we don't celebrate the hours and focus on the "only"...well that my friend is a big problem! I hear from so many runners (and I'm guilty of it myself) that they are... 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 →
10 years, 10 pounds, & a lot of living later...I returned to the scene of my very 1st marathon the Green Bay Cellcom. I was told long before I began my long distance adventures that I would never forget my 1st marathon. The day will be forever burned into my brain. Fast forward 10 years... 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...
