Let’s Talk ABout Races
I feel like the year is already getting away from me!!! Can you believe January is almost over?! I decided today that I need to write down my future race/adventures for to keep me motivated! I don’t know about all of you, but I need a race or event to set my mind on to keep me challenged!
You all might have noticed I haven’t been running as much since my marathon in December, but all that shall change the first week of February, because I have a Relay & Marathon to TRAIN for!! Since I had some extra time on my hands today, I decided to write down the events I plan on doing from now until June.
Upcoming Race Schedule:
- 2/28 Kids on the Run (10k) Charity Race
- 3/28 Muddy Buddy (I NEED A BUDDY!!)
- 4/18 Run through Redlands (1/2 Marathon)
- 4/23-24 Ragner Relay (Santa Barbara to Dana Point)
- 5/8 Malibu Creek Trail Race (22k)
- 6/5 SanDiego Rock and Roll (full marathon)
I am using all of my Kickboxing Teaching $$ to pay for these races, basically every check will pay for each race, but I wouldn’t mind being sponsored 
So what will my training look like? I have always trained by running four times a week, but this time I am going to train by running 3 times a week. Why only three times a week? Because I believe in QUALITY VS. QUANTITY. I will be doing lot’s of cross training on my days off from running, kickboxing, sculpt,yoga, etc…
I am following the Runners World’s Book called Run Less Run Faster. I wouldn’t mind qualifying for Boston one more time before I have little kiddos running around. If you want to qualify for Boston or just become faster all together I would check it out. (I was not paid to say any of this, I just love the plan)
You can check out my Training Calendar here:
I start training February 16th:

On to food! I ended up sitting at the Coffee Shop for several hours and had lunch while I was there. A Veggie Sammy with all the works!!!
When I got home I made myself a wonderful snack! Greek Yogurt+Apple+Zoe’s Granola
What a productive day I have had almost everything is crossed off my GOOGLE TASKS and my inbox is organized 
I am off to teach kickboxing and then news is we might not be able to go to work until THURSDAY might stay up late and READ my new book!!! What a crazy week!
So until we work again from work this is what our HOUSE looks like….

What an awesome race schedule. I was just thinking of mine this year and also thinking of posting it. I was also just thinking of grabbing some dessert of apples and yogurt. We are thinking so much alike today!
If I’m back in CA in May I wanna do the Malibu with you! I won’t be back in time to be your Muddy Buddy
I did the MB awhile back – wear clothes you’re willing to throw away!
You are so organized! You’re gonna rock them all. I feel like I need to get better about my race, even though it’s just one lol.
I will probably most definitely do Run Through Redlands.
I really disliked SD’s course, I do not think I will do that again.
Is Muddy Buddy a 10K? I may be interested!
what a great schedule! i need to put together one soon. there are so many races i want to do but i need some $$ first haha
You are such an inspiration! How long did you train until you qualified for Boston?
I am going to definitely check out the runner’s world website! So excited for Ragnar! It is gonna be a BLAST!
I’m following the “Run Less Run Faster” half marathon plan to try and PR. I love it so far because I get to circuit train and spin more!
looks like you’ve got a great race schedule ahead of you!! i need to do that as well!!
Question: how do you get your task list to show on your inbox page in gmail? i am new to gmail!
Your race schedule looks awesome!! Excited to see how you like the Run Less Run Faster plan!! I’ve cut down my running to 4 days a week for this round of training and so far I am loving it! And really surprising myself with faster paces!!
What a great race calendar and training schedule!!
I swear by google calendar!!!
dang, thats a lot of computers!
sounds like you have a pretty good race schedule already lined up!
busy busy girl! I am still so sad I can’t commit to the relay…maybe the money will magically appear!
Total nerd question here – how do you get different inboxes in your gmail? I haven’t figured out how to do that – mine show up in one list, but it looks like yours split into different boxes, depending on the label?
I strictly recommend not to wait until you earn big sum of money to order all you need! You should get the business loans or collateral loan and feel comfortable
