It seems spring has sprung here in the southeast and another month has come and gone. Welcome to March, everyone! Since I've been taking more time to unplug this month, it's time for us to play catch up. Grab your favorite cup and fill it with some coffee or tea. It's time for our March Ultimate Coffee Date.
If we were having coffee… I’d tell you: NoKey and I are moving back to Millinocket! We were contacted recently pretty much out of the blue by Paul and Jaimie up at the AT Lodge. After some serious discussion we have decided that after we hike the Mountains to Sea Trail later this month, we'll be headed back to Maine with all our pets! We'll be taking on a management role at the Lodge and look forward to meeting all the AT hikers who are coming through in 2018.
Home Sweet Home for 2018!
If we were having coffee… I’d tell you: My running has taken a serious hit in February. After my most recent 30K at Whitestone, I've really scaled back on running. In fact, I've not done any serious running in over a week. I've been having some pretty severe pain and I've been seeing a chiropractor and doing some trigger point rolling. Since my goal is to run 100 miles very soon, I'm taking it easy and making sure I get the rest I need to successfully complete my goal. Speaking of that...
If we were having coffee… I’d tell you: I'm running my first ever 100-miler in only two weeks! (YIKES!) The taper crazies haven't gotten to me yet, but I have run 290 miles since the beginning of the year. I think I ran enough to get me through without losing my mind. And speaking of running...
If we were having coffee… I’d tell you: I was accepted to run the New York City Marathon! I didn't even tell NoKey I applied to the lottery this year because I was so sure I wouldn't be accepted. In fact, on lottery day I didn't even bother refreshing after checking to see if my credit card was charged. I had forgotten that when I put my name into the lottery my credit card was in the process of being replaced, so I used my debit card. Imagine my surprise the next morning when I saw the email asking if I was ready to run the streets of New York City!
That pretty much sums up my February. What would you tell me about your month? I'd love to catch up with you!
