Ohhhh yes my friends! It's time to start forming that 2016 Race Schedule.
So here's what the schedule has thus far:
Read MoreWhy not earn a medal during a nice lunch run?
Virtual race FTW! ;)
On Friday I opted to work from home, which allowed me to knock out my run during the day outside instead of early morning inside on the treadmill. #WIN
Since I have one hour for lunch, I knew I would be cutting it close to attempt my Gone For A Run Faster Than Boo 10k. But I was up for the challenge.

Well now that you're on the edge of your seat I'll tell ya all the details. Stop twisting my arm! ;)
On Columbus Day (Monday, October 12), I had the pleasure or running one of my favorite 10ks in the country and one of the most historic races - the Tufts Health Plan 10k for Women!

Read MoreOctober 4th marked the fifth anniversary of the Cambridge 5k Oktoberfest 5k and my third-straight year running it with the Slumbrew Happy Soles.
Read MoreIt was the morning of my seventh triathlon and I was a ball of nerves and excitement! I was actually looking forward to tackling the Max Performance Title 9 Women Only Sprint Triathlon.
Not only would I be racing, but I would be there to support three of my Weight Watchers members, as well as, a fellow WW leader and friend. They would all be doing their first triathlon. YES!! I love being there to witness friends push their comfort zones and prove to themselves how strong they are. :)
Read MoreWhen we last left the marathon #9 training story, I had the hydration plan under control thanks to Essentia Water... but the rest was a mystery! :P
Well that was a start, but there was the small detail of a training plan that needed to be addressed. I haven't followed a really structured training plan in a couple of years. Outside of my long runs that were set by Tedy's Team for the past couple of Boston Marathons. Now I am not recommending this plan to folks - haha - it's just what ended up transpiring in my life. I was kind of winging the weekday workouts, which didn't really bring me the results I wanted. Shocking I know. ;)
So this time around, I wanted a little more structure. I had dabbled in the idea of getting a running coach, but that wasn't in the financial cards.
Read MoreMy name is Dani and I am blogging out of the Boston Area. I started this blog in May of 2011 after suffering a back injury and subsequent back surgery in December 2011-January 2011. 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.
