It has had been a while since I have last posted but I do want to get this blog back up and running.  I am in the process of putting my Spring race schedule together and feel that this is a good time to start this again.

I have signed up for my first full marathon.  I am running the Pittsburgh Marathon and am raiding money for the 2017 Alzheimers Association.  So hopefully I will start publishing training recaps soon, only 104 days until race day.  Check out my fundraising page:Pgh Marathon fundraising.

I have decided that I would also like to complete the 50 state challenge (a half in all 50 states, and I am adding DC as well).  I still have a long way to go on this front, but I have signed up to cross off my 4th state, Ohio in May as well.  I currently have Pennsylvania, West Virginia, and Alaska crossed off.  Would like to try and get up to 6 states by the end of the year.  But first I need to find some fun races, preferably within easy driving distance from Pittsburgh.  If you have any suggestions I would love to hear them.
