Rock ‘n’ Roll New Orleans Here I Come!

September 15, 2014 | blogging, fitness, health, motivation, running

I mentioned awhile back that I would be running the Rock ‘n’ Roll New Orleans half marathon, but I finally got my rear in gear and officially registered!

Rock 'n' Roll New Orleans

Bobby is registered too, so we will both be running the half in January. I am admittedly a little nervous as it will be my first half after having baby M, and since I haven’t really run since sometime in the second trimester, I will literally be starting from scratch. But that’s ok! I’m going to CELEBRATE being able to run again and have already started brainstorming costume ideas. Oh yes my friends. I WILL be running in a costume. It’s all about fun at Rock ‘n’ Roll New Orleans!

Voting has ended on the finisher’s medals for this race, but the design will be announced on the 18th! I will be posting pictures on Instagram as soon as I get my hands on a photo so be sure you are following me.

Another thing of note: There will be a price increase on September 19th, so hurry and register NOW! Be sure to use code LOOKINGGLASS at checkout for $10 off registration.

Be sure to follow along with Rock ‘n’ Roll New Orleans race info and news by using #RnRNOLA, and following @RunRocknRoll on Instagram and Twitter.

QOTD: Are you running any Rock ‘n’ Roll races next year? Which ones? Have you run any in the past?

    Rock ‘n’ Roll races are so much fun! I’ve run two this year – DC and Virginia Beach. I’m not currently registered for any 2015 races, but once I start working on my race calendar for next year I’ll definitely be considering a Rock ‘n’ Roll race or two.

    My husband and I were registered to run RnR Cleveland but they cancelled the race.:( We ran it last year and really enjoyed it, so we are a little bummed.

    I haven’t run any RnR races but there is a half in Dallas. The first year the medal was of the Ferris wheel on the fairgrounds.

      You should do it!

    YAY! That is so exciting! I am sure the thought of training for a half after having a baby is intimidating but you can definitely do it!

      thanks!

    I’ve never run a RNR because it’d have to be a destination race and I am not ready to do that again (yet!)!

    • Heather says

      September 16, 2014 at 3:54 pm

      Aw but destination races are so funnn!

    I am hoping to run the Seattle Rock’n’Roll Half next year. I’ve always wanted to run a RnR race, but put it off because Seattle is really hilly. But, I think it may be time to concur those hills!

      September 16, 2014 at 3:54 pm

      you can do it!

😎 90’s summer loading….. If you grew up in 😎 90’s summer loading…..

If you grew up in the 90’s like me, you know we had THE BEST summers. They were simple, but magical. Yes sometimes we got bored and fought with our friends, but the freedom and fun was so memorable. 

In today’s world of screen time and filling every second of the day with “fun” for our kids so they never have to be bored, it makes me sad that they won’t experience what we did. So I am trying to recreate a 90’s summer the best way I can.

Will we still travel? Of course, it’s my job. But when we are home, I’m not filling every second with fun. I’m making her figure it out. Read a book. Do some chores. Then just…go. Play. Be a ten year old while I work. Then in the evenings we can play some more, together, while I tell stories of all the crazy and fun things I did as a kid during those special 90’s summers. ☀️ 🩷
