The next installment of the #RoadtoCIM is here! My first test was the Cow Harbor 10k last month - follow along for a behind-the-scenes look at the race, documented by the talented @kalliekatherine. Excited to share this journey with @runinrabbit, @stravatrackclub, and you all! 🏃‍♀️💛 See a teaser here and the full video at the link in my bio ⬆️ . . . #rabbitmarathoners #runinrabbit #marathontraining #marathon #cowharbor #cowharbor10k #roadrunner #roadrace #womensrunning #runnerspace #usatf #cim35 #runningjoyfully #rabbitPRO #borntorunfree #strava #strive #runsacramento
A close 2nd today at the #HartfordHalf - 1 second out of the win! Won't lie, that stings a bit, especially after leading most of the race and doing the work up front. So the bad news is I need to work on my racing tactics a bit, but the good news is I felt super strong and comfortable running 1:14:42 and there's more in the gas tank. Now just to add another 13.1 to this and we'll have a great marathon 😊 • I'm happy to be part of @hmf_events's New England's Finest program today and finish as the top New Englander, to witness my friend @samroecker as she also got 2nd (in the marathon) and punched her ticket to the Olympic Trials 🙌, and to see my #trainingjoyfully athlete @runraquel cross the finish line in a new marathon PR 👍 and watch her run tough despite a challenging back half. Hartford's hills are no joke, and today the humidity was out in full force - so I have much admiration for everyone who powered through today. Great job! 👏Now it's time for me to head home and get ready for some more high-mileage weeks of marathon training! 🏃‍♀️Thanks for @itsamarython for the sweet pic and awesome cheers! . . . #halfmarathon #hartford #2ndplace #closebutnocigar #ontothenext #marathontraining #rabbitmarathoners #runinrabbit #rabbitPRO #borntorunfree #runnerspace #RoadtoCIM #CIM35

Looks like fall, feels like summer. 20 miles in near-100% humidity made for a very sweaty long run. Poor man's altitude, right? 💦 But really, fall weather can you hurry up and get here?

If at first you don't succeed, try, try again // Marathoning takes a village, and some of the time it isn't pretty. I had a big workout on tap today, and I'd been anxious about it for the past few days. This anxiety kept me from executing this morning, but I gave it another go tonight. • I knew it might be rough alone in the dark on a Friday night at the end of a long week of training, coaching & grad school. 🏃‍♀️📚Thank goodness for friends helping you out along the way! • Tonight, @starling_80 and I had a bit of a role reversal. I've been coaching Jess through #trainingjoyfully for a few years now, but tonight she played the role of coach and biked alongside me as I grinded out Boulevard tempo loops. I get by with a little help from my friends! 😊💪🏃‍♀️🚴🏻‍♀️ Thank you Jess! It wasn't glamorous, it wasn't pretty, but I got it done, and at paces faster than written at that! I'll remember this workout when the going gets tough in 26.2! . . . #marathontraining #marathon #keepingitreal #runinrabbit #rabbitmarathoners #rabbitpro #runnerspace #runCIM #CIM35 #runningjoyfully

I'm excited to announce that I'm running the @usatf USA Marathon Championships at the California International Marathon @runsra_cim this December! . . In partnership with my sponsor @runinrabbit and my very talented sister @kalliekatherine, I'm sharing a behind-the-scenes look at my training over the next 2 months. . Here's a clip of the first installment - enjoy! Link to the full video ⬆️ in my profile.

Today I hopped in the pool for the first time in a long time. I grew up a swimmer, logging 2+ hours a day in the pool for over a decade, but running was always my true passion. I got in the pool today after my track workout - with lots of miles in my legs, my body was craving some water therapy today. The first few seconds after I plunged in were chilly, but within a few strokes the water felt good, relaxing even. I didn't swim long, just enough to loosen up tight muscles, but it felt wonderful. HCW was on my mind, I did a few laps of breaststroke for you today, Heather 💛 The pool does a body good! 🏊‍♀️
