Malta Marathon in February 2025 was a fun weekend where I unexpectedly met up with a good friend who happened to be ‘in the area’ that weekend. Lots of running, lots of laughs, and making lots of fun memories! Thanks for being there for me, Beth!
Marathon #43 – the first of a back-to-back weekend marathon adventure – was run in Split, Croatia! This was the 25th anniversary of the event, and it proved to be a fun and faster than expected run for me.
As always, I celebrated the finish with a local beer and some fries!

I thought I was done with marathon running after being uninspired and dealing with back issues through covid. I thought wrong, and now I’m sitting at marathon #39.
My annual tradition of running a spring marathon (or two) in Europe with my friend Sarah has continued into 2019, making it the fourth year in a row that I’ve been able to head across the pond for what has now affectionately been dubbed #euromarathonadventure. This tradition started in 2016, when I won a free…
Last week was a busy one. I lost two toenails from past running experiences (dating back to the Philadelphia Marathon in November) and I registered for the Miami Marathon on 27th January. That kind of sums up how things are going in general – I’m dealing with the past while trying to look to the…
