    Wicked 10K Recap

    Hey Everyone!! I hope you are having a fantastic day so far! Today, I wanted to share with you my experience running the Wicked 10K this past Sunday.

I got extremely lucky and the weather was amazing. However, the sun always seems to be shining on race day which is sometimes good and sometimes bad since it gets a little warm quickly.

    Weekend Recap: 10/11-10/13

    Happy Monday! Hopefully you were able to greet today with a cup of coffee in hand and a smile on your face! I am so happy to say that this weekend the weather has finally started to cool down. The mornings are in the low 60’s and sometimes even the 50’s. Even in the middle of the day we are not breaking 100 anymore. I can’t wait until it is finally sweater weather outside and I can finally pull out my boot collection. Like they always do, this weekend sped by in a flash. Friday night after work I headed home to bake cookies for the farmers market on Saturday.…
