The Life and Style of a Mother Runner with Scoliosis
Before summer official leaves us and we say hello to fall (believe me, I am so ready for fall!), I've been reflecting back on this summer: what we did differently from last summer's training and how the particular challenge of the last few months have ultimately made me a smarter, stronger runner. My summer running... Continue Reading →
Beer, festivals, and more beer, oh my! As much as I enjoy my snowy Wisconsin winters, summertime in Milwaukee just can't be beat. I took a quick trip home last weekend to see family and friends, sip some new brews, and of course, take in as much of what the city has to offer as... Continue Reading →

It's Global Running Day! 5AM came rather quickly, but I surprisingly didn't have trouble getting out of bed. Connor and I planned on doing something this morning that we — interestingly — have never done before: run together on a week day before going to work. Anyone I know will tell you that I'm not...

#natalies365photoproject Last year on my birthday (when I turned the big 3-0), I embarked on a year-long journey of taking one photo every day for the entire year. This wasn't my first go-around with a 365 photo project; I did one when I first moved to New Jersey and started it on my 25th birthday.... Continue Reading →
#NatConDisney: The Races, part 2 Where to begin with the Disneyland Half Marathon?! We went into it not really knowing what to expect and, considering we'd just run a 10K the day before, just wanted to finish the race. Well, I'm so proud to say that not only did we finish the race, we also... Continue Reading →
#NatConDisney: The Races, part 1 Where to begin?! So it's been a little over two weeks since we completed our Dumbo Double Dare challenge at Disneyland...we're still beaming about it and can't believe that it not only happened, but it's over already. We had so much fun! Running 19.3 miles over the course of two... Continue Reading →
