2019, let’s do this!

What a bittersweet day- my last run on my little apartment loop. We moved into these apartments in July as we worked toward finding the right house for us in the Asheville area. It definitely took longer than I expected. Countless homes, laughs and tears... 4 failed/lost offers, and even an offer that fell through on the sale of our home in Maryland. What a rollercoaster. Kudos to the realtors who play this game, it is DEFINITELY not for me. Well, we finally close on our home today. I wanted to get one last run in on my little loop before having to explore new neighborhoods and find new routes. I’ve lost count of how many times I’ve ran this parking lot. I’ve come up with different patterns and formulas to stretch each mile and make them feel longer. I’ve pushed Clara up and down and around for hours. I’ve cursed the hills and I’ve embraced them. I’m sure I’ve garnered the attention of more than one neighbor who waved the first time I passed them, then gave me odd looks the third time I passed them, then just started laughing at me when we both lost count at how many times I passed them. There’s also been a weird camaraderie when you see other people running the loops, too. They have their own patterns and routes created and we wave in solidarity on every pass. As much as it sucked, I found it to be meditative. It was safe. Minimal traffic. No bears. Decently lit in the dark. So I found peace in just going around, and around, and around. Onto new places! I can’t wait to move in today! I can’t wait to settle into my beautiful home, with my amazing family, and create a whole new routine with memories! Stay tuned!

Run 10.5 miles with friend (+ Barley). Spend QT with fam. Visit breweries. Eat damn good food. I’m so grateful this is my home. #nuffsaid #sundayfunday #longrundone #runavl #run828

F O U R ! Sunrise miles with Barley! #bestrunningfriend #wheresmelissa

Small world: I wore my @duluthrunningco hoodie (because I’m homesick) to the @fleetfeetasheville group run tonight and one of the guys says “huh, Duluth?” Not only has he been there, he also has been to Lake Orebegone, where I spent my childhood camping! It was a beautiful, perfect fall day to run (and I housed a 🌯 & 🍺 after!). . . . . . #runyourworld #runwithher #runAVL #run828 #trailsisters #828isgreat #smallworld #postpartumbody #marathontraining #willsweatforbeer #runchat #runhappy #fleetfeetasheville #runningcommunity #womensrunningcommunity #runtoinspire #procompression #keepittight #hshive #sponsored #momswhorun #irunthisbody #fitnessmotivation #sufferfest #runlove #duluthrunningco #gorun #stravarun

Sweet trail run with @fleetfeetasheville demoing @altrarunning shoes (miss you @livingthereplife !!). Good luck to all the Marine Corps Marathon and 50k runners today, I’m with you in spirit and remember my experience on that course fondly! #oohrah Feeling a little “weak” and “twinge-y” in certain places after Chicago and Baltimore. I’m still taking it pretty easy but I might try to build in some structure (and strength training) this week. Sunday Runday in the books! #fleetfeetavl #altrarunning #trailrunner #procompressionambassador #keepittight #sundayfunday #sundayvibes #sundayrunday #recoverymiles #run828 #hshive

I have about a 5 week “Inter-training” cycle before I slowly start into training for my next run. We’re FINALLY moving into our house in about 2.5 weeks so I’m going to try and keep things relatively unstructured until that chaos is over. I am definitely still letting my body and my mind recover from #mychicagomarathon but I ran hard today! 30 mins, 9:05 pace(average). Trail run tomorrow!! . . . . . #runyourworld #runwithher #runAVL #run828 #trailsisters #828isgreat #trailsisterswnc #postpartumbody #marathontraining #willsweatforbeer #runchat #runhappy #fleetfeetasheville #womensrunningcommunity #runtoinspire #procompression #keepittight #hshive #sponsored #momswhorun #irunthisbody #fitnessmotivation #sufferfest #runlove #gorun #stravarun
