Photo shoot
Late post. . . . This summer I was asked to participate in a photo shoot for a project called #theeverydayathlete by @rlovelacephotography. What an experience to share my love of running in pictures. @rlovelacephotography is very gifted and it was fun to watch him work. Finding the perfect shot with the best angle, sunlightContinue reading “Photo shoot”
Seven weeks ago, my friends encouraged me to sign up for the Memorial Day 50k. This was not a lot of time to train, but who can say no to running a 50k surrounded by friends for a good cause. The race was to run the length of Marshall County (33 miles) in honor ofContinue reading
Bell Ringer 15k
I ran the @BellRingertrailrun 15k with two of my daughters the second Saturday of December. The 15k was the longest distance for both girls while I have run the 25k once and the 50k twice.

Depot Dash 5k
The inaugural Depot Dash 5k was this past Saturday at Preservation Park in Thompson’s Station Tennessee. It was nice having a trail race in our home town even if it was a shorter race distance than I normally run. I also had the pleasure of running with my youngest daughter. We signed up for theContinue reading “Depot Dash 5k”
Music City Trail Ultra (25k)
Well, back in January I was exited our local recreation center and bumped into a running buddy. He asked if I was running the MCTU 25k and I said no. I had no interest in running a 16 mile race that took 4 hours and I got lost in last year. He encouraged me sayingContinue reading “Music City Trail Ultra (25k)”
