What I’m Up To Next (With Running)

April 10, 2015 | blogging, fitness, health, runDisney, running

TGIF! I thought it was high time I got back into vlogging, so here is what I am doing next as far as running goes. Sorry if I ramble, remember I haven’t done this in a long time!

 

QOTD: What are you running next?

    I wish I could say I was doing Expedition Everest! I was unaware that it was the last one until after it sold out. 🙁
    Next up for me is the IronGirl half this weekend and a 10k in May. After that, races are pretty sparse here in FL until the fall. Looking forward to my first Wine and Dine in November the most!

      hope you had a fun race!

    Wish I’d known about Expedition Everest! I wanted to do it just once but I didn’t realize Disney was getting rid of it.

    I’m doing a race series out of Fort Meade for the rest of the year. There’s six 5Ks and two 10Ks, I believe. I’ve also got the Wicked 10K in VA Beach and my second Avengers Half in November. I’m super excited for the Avengers weekend because my daughter is running one of the kids races.

    • Heather says

      April 13, 2015 at 3:28 pm

      I would love to do avengers!

    I’m doing my first half on April 19th, Biggest Looser in Mobile. After that there are a couple of fun 5ks coming up in May, one that starts and ends at the battleship with a ton of activities planned for kids (one Max would love) and one at Bellingrath gardens that includes a 1k dog walk and after party in the gardens. After that I guess it planning out next big races for fall. Jazz half is on Halloween this year, so not sure if we want to brave New Olreans on Halloween day, any thoughts?

    • Heather says

      April 10, 2015 at 7:28 am

      Love Jazz half! I think as long as you don’t stay around that evening/night you should be ok

    I’ll see you at Expedition Everest! My wife and I will be walking it (she’s not allowed to run). Like you, I’ve never done this race and knew this was my last chance.

    • Heather says

      April 13, 2015 at 3:27 pm

      oh yay!

    I am running a 5K with my mom tomorrow! I am really excited, its my first race since last summer. =) The following Saturday I am running a 10K. May 3rd I will being doing my second half in Pittsburgh with my sister and cousins!

    So jealous of all your Disney runs! Running the princess half is on my bucket list!

    • Heather says

      April 13, 2015 at 3:27 pm

      I hope you had a good race!

    I’m currently training for my first 10k on June 6, and I’m absolutely terrified

    • Heather says

      April 13, 2015 at 3:27 pm

      oh no why!

      • Tristin says

        April 13, 2015 at 3:34 pm

        I’ve never run anything further than a 5k race, and I’ve been struggling so much physically since my baby was born. I’m hoping to use this 10k as proof of time for either the Glass Slipper or Princess half in 2016 (I want to do glass slipper, but I’m a little chicken). This race is the closest one to me that is certified, and it’s still 3 hours away. My oldest is hoping to do it with me, which would be nice.

        • Heather says

          April 13, 2015 at 3:56 pm

          You can do it! Have you been upping your mileage?

          • Tristin says

            April 13, 2015 at 5:08 pm

            I am. I’m doing a bridge to 10k app. The race is the first weekend in June, so I should have enough time to make it all the way through the program.

    I’m doing a 5k tomorrow that’s sponsored by a bar. And they’ll be serving beer at 8am at the finish line. Can’t wait! Then I have a 10k in 2 weeks. And I’m looking for another certified 10k in the SE (that’s easy to travel to) from north Florida for my proof of time for Wine and Dine. It looks like I’m mostly out of luck though.

    • Heather says

      April 13, 2015 at 3:27 pm

      hope your race was fun!

  8. Jen says

    April 10, 2015 at 10:45 am

    Can’t wait for EE! I can’t believe how close it’s getting!

  9. Rachel says

    Sunday is the Strawberry Strut in Ponchatoula, you should try to do it next year! It’s 1 mile, 5k, or 10k and always the weekend of strawberry fest. I hear it’s usually between 100 and 200 people. I’ll be running it Sunday, probably in the rain!

    • Heather says

      April 13, 2015 at 3:26 pm

      oh fun!

    I have a 5k tomorrrow (Angels Foundation 5k) and Im excited to run through angels stadium again! Next week I have the inaugural sunset strip half (think the hilly part of the LA marathon on sunset into West hollywood. that huge hill we ran down, we get to go up! eek!). then Inaugural Pixie Dust challenge!! and then a much deserved break until a 4th of july 5k and a Dumbo Double Dare before another break and the NYC Marathon, Wine and dine half, inaugural infinity gauntlet to close out the year

    • Heather says

      April 10, 2015 at 4:23 pm

      Wow you have a lot of races! Jealous! I was so hoping for wine and dine this year.

  11. Haley @ Running with Diapers says

    April 10, 2015 at 8:23 pm

    I have one last half this weekend, then I’m done for a long while. I’ll be busting butt trying to loose the rest of the baby weight before June. Then I’ll start training for NYC.
    That’s when the fun really begins. lol

    • Heather says

      April 13, 2015 at 3:26 pm

      oh wow nyc!

    I have the Chickamauga Chase 15k next Saturday and then the Peachtree Road Race (10k) on July 4th in Atlanta – yeah, I know, it will be sweltering! Just like in Jackson/NOLA, the race season in North Georgia ends at the first of June and doesn’t pick up again until late September. I need to do speedwork. I’d like to break a 12 min/mile.

    • Heather says

      April 13, 2015 at 3:26 pm

      good luck!

    This combination will keep anyone going solid through
    any season offered the durability of the frame and usability of
    the lens. Because the two lenses shift over one another, the solutions modify gradually and eureka.

Turning 40 tomorrow. 🎂 Big milestones always Turning 40 tomorrow. 🎂 

Big milestones always make me pause and ask:
What am I proud of?
What needs to shift?
Am I becoming the woman I want to be?

💡 As an Enneagram 3, I’ve always been wired to achieve — and for a long time, that meant shaping myself into whatever version I thought people would like best.

There are tables where it’s clear I’m not welcome — and that used to wreck me.
But at 40? I don’t do cliques. I don’t do shrinking or contorting to be accepted. 👀

I’ll always be kind. I’ll always be respectful. But I’m done dragging a chair to tables that were never built for me.

I’m moving over. Making space.
Creating my own table.
