I can’t believe we’re already through all the long training runs and we’re into the taper! Last weekend was the 22-mile run from Washington Park and now we’ll taper the next three weeks until the Flying Pig Marathon. Could not have gotten this far without this amazing group. 🙂
I just finished Behind Closed Doors by B. A. Paris and couldn’t wait to share! It was so good! I first heard about it on the Young House Love podcast last year, but it didn’t quite make the 2019 book list cut.
Are you tired of hearing about Asheville after the Half Marathon, Biltmore Tour, and Breweries? Well, too bad, because I have more to share! Like where we stayed, downtown Asheville and where we ate.
Just like when we traveled to Indy for the marathon and tried out some breweries, after the Asheville Half Marathon we hit up a few Asheville breweries. There are 26 breweries in Asheville and 60 in the surrounding area! We went to four, including Green Man Brewery with its huge mosaic wall of their logo.

When I originally requested Becoming by Michelle Obama from the library I was something like 500 in the queue. So I figured it was going to be one I might not check off my 2019 books list. Then I got the notice that it was in while I was out of town. I immediately asked…
I’m 8 weeks into the 18-week Flying Pig marathon training plan. We haven’t hit the big miles yet, but I’ve already identified three Flying Pig Marathon goals. And it’s not all about time. 🙂
After zipping through The Woman in the Window audiobook, I started The Water Cure by Sophie Mackintosh. It got a place on my 2019 book list because it has 3.5 starts on Amazon, 3.52 on goodreads and is longlisted for the 2018 Man Booker Prize. So, once again I went in without reading the description…
