New York Road Runners Membership...
I have one. :)
I finally became a member of the NYRR, and with good reason. My crazy little mind decided that 2012 is the year that I will run the ING NYC Marathon…Yep, me. Running 26.2 miles, in 5 boroughs, with thousands upon thousands of other people.
I have my first race of the 9+1 system next weekend - the Fred Lebow 5M in Central Park. (Fred Lebow was the one featured in the...

I was lucky enough to catch up and spend an entire day, night, and most of today with my friend Julie. It was so nice to laugh and catch up and have a rip-roarin’ good time with one of my most favorite people. And today, Julie and I grabbed lunch with one of my other favorite people, Rebecca.
This is a picture my mom snapped of me and Julie on her phone before we left to watch the Grand...

Hearing my dad ask, “how much weight did you lose, Cait?” will never get old…
Though my parents were dubious when I told them about my plan to run a half marathon this past October, they have been nothing but supportive of this endeavor. I didn’t do it to seek their (or anyone else’s) approval, it was really just a realization that I needed to change the way I was...

I decided to go with my 2.28 mile route and had every intention of finishing the distance. My lungs, however, had different plans — as expected.
I’m frustrated...

Feeling like a sad Sally… I forgot to pack my Nike+ adapter for my iPod and that really bums me out. I’m considering going for a run even though I may cough up a lung. I know that relaxing and taking it easy are a part of getting better, but all of this sitting around has me feeling blobby and lazy. Plus, I feel like I need to take advantage of the fact that the sun sets later in...

Bah Flu-Bug!
Well, maybe not the flu, but a bug nonetheless. I feel like garbage. Like an absolute train wreck.
Having received my Nike purchase, I had grand plans for a 4 mile run on the slippery, snow-covered sidewalks in my parents’ neighborhood and on the gorgeous nature trail nearby. The best laid plans of mice and men… I woke up this morning feeling a little less than stellar and as the day...

Baby did a bad, bad thing...
Ok, so maybe it wasn’t that bad, but considering the fact that Christmas is a mere 10 days away, it probably wasn’t an intelligent or selfless thing to do…
With half marathon training ramping up right after Christmas, I will have plenty of long runs outdoors in the elements and because I live in NYC, none of them will be particularly warm and toasty. In addition, none of the...
