But if the 2015 season had to end... at least it went out with a bang!
The Yulefest 5k is my favorite in the Cambridge 5k series.

At this point in time we are 3.8+ miles of running in, 464792 selfies and countless laughs into the trip, but it was time for the big day: the Five & Dime.
What the heck is the Five & Dime you ask? Well it is when slightly sleep-deprived folks get up and run a 5k at 8am and a 10k at 9:30am.
Normal right?

How can you pass up participating in a race that is literally across the street from your neighborhood? I mean the commute alone is a huge PRO! ;)
2015 marked the third year of the Race To The Row 5k at Assembly Row in Somerville and the third different course. Haha. There has been a lot of change to the area (improvements) so the course had to adjust as well.
Read MoreI don't always run a 5k the day before a marathon, but when I do I make sure it has:
1) Tons of Friends
2) A Celebrity Photo-Op
3) The #WeRunSocial Crew
4) Sweet Medal
Do you know where I found all of the above? The Rock 'n' Roll San Diego 5k baby!

I had the pleasure of doing that very thing this morning! My BFF Sarah, my Tedy's Team teammate and friend Page and I took part in the 19th Annual Herring Run 5k... which happened to take place at the end of my street.

The wife and I have run in this race every year since moving back to Boston from Chicago. Now I wanted to make sure 2015 would be no different.

This space was to serve as a way for me to release the inner feelings I was carrying around and maybe help some other people going through similar situations: eating disorders, depression, weight loss and more.
