Daily ramblings from a liberal lover of reading, running, and traveling. Just finished a year of exploring the country with my family, via 42’ fifth wheel. Now just figuring out our new life in the PNW ❤️

Four generations of my family have served our country. Service is in my blood. The President wouldn’t know anything about that.

My reading goal for 2025 was 125 books and sadly I didn’t quite hit it with all the changes we had this year. I’m still very happy with finishing 110 books though! My top 3 reads were: 1. The Great Alone by Kristen Hannah 2. Atmosphere by Taylor Jenkins Reid 3. Hello Beautiful by Ann Napolitano

Super proud of my recent half! Was shooting for 2:20, and exceeded my goal! Runna has been a game changer this go around. My last half was in ‘23 & I finished in 2:50, so this was a huge jump. My new goal is 1:55 by March 7 to surpass my 2015 PR! #marathontraining #running #runner #runchat #runsky

Today’s run was rough. I didn’t get sleep last night due to taking my runner pup Tilly to the ER over a dog attack. I started my run late, & everything just felt wrong. There will be days like today, but putting to the universe my half will be better! #running #marathontraining #runchat #runsky

Successful first rainy run since moving to Washington in April. Hit my goals so I’m pleased! Tilly’s longest run to date and she is still showing no signs of needing to back off the long runs 🐾 #runchat #running #runsky #runner #marathontraining

This run felt like such a fail. I started out too fast, and halfway I just slowly gave up from there. I was shooting for a 5k PR and just couldn’t get it. Focusing on getting stronger every day, and this is not a setback it’s a learning experience. #runchat #runsky #running #runner #pnw #washington

Super proud of my run today! I was worried about keeping up with some of the paces on such a long run, but I killed it. I even PRd my 10k and 15k! The last 2 miles were tough, but it’s done and I’m happy with the results. Happy weekend! #runchat #runsky #running #pnw #marathontraining #runner

This one didn’t feel as easy as last weeks 9mi, but it was still fine. With family in town I’ve been focusing less on my routine, so I know why this one felt rough. The good news is that it’s done, and it wasn’t the worst run I’ve had, so I’ll take it! #runsky #runchat #running #marathontraining

Wonderful anniversary weekend visiting Olympic National Park! It was a hot one, but we enjoyed all the beautiful views Washington has to offer 🏔️ 13 years married and 19 years together and we still love adventuring together ❤️

I’ve never had a long run feel so good! It was one of those runs that I felt like I could just keep going. Ran the whole way which hasn’t happened on a while for such a long run. This training plan has really helped me grow as a runner! #runna #running #runsky #runchat #marathontraining

Book 78 of 125 in 2025 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 4/5 🎧 💙📚 Memoir I never watched this series, so maybe that’s why I didn’t love this more, but overall a good listen. Sad to see just how easily it is for these groups to prey on people and get away with it. Good on her for warning others with her experience. #booksky

Great run! I was so close to hitting my paces for this progression run hitting 2/3 groups, so I’m feeling really good with those results. Especially after missing a run this week to rest my ankle. Ankle felt great, & I’m back on track for training! #run #runchat #running #runner #marathontraining

Little worried about how long the series is, but I will definitely be reading the next one no matter what! #booksky

Newsom: If California, one of the most un-Trumped states in America, is not successful, it’s at our peril. We may not get this back. I’m telling you, we may not. He is rigging this next midterm election before one vote is cast. He tried to wreck our democracy after the last vote was cast last time.

Explored the beautiful views at Twin Falls Trail today. 2.5 miles (little longer if you explore off trail like we did) ~600ft elevation gain. Plenty of spots to picnic and enjoy the river! #explore #hike #pnw #washington #trail

This was challenging for sure with 525ft elevation gain spread throughout. What keeps me going is seeing my pace increase week over week. I can already tell I’m going to be crazy prepared for my half in October! Hope you all have/had a great weekend! #runsky #runner #runchat #running

Officially sold our home on wheels as we are planning to stay put in the #pnw for the long haul. The travels were fantastic, but the kids are ready to make friends again, and I was getting pretty tired of everything breaking ALL THE TIME! Some pics from our fave adventures ✌️ #travel #explore
