Time to play catch up

I must begin and apologize for my extreme slacking on the blog here! It turns out as summer got more exciting I forgot to keep writing about it, my apologies. This week marks my 2 year anniversary in New York City and I'm still amazed to keep finding new things to do here. So my new promise to you all will be to try and keep you posted on my continuing adventures here! 

A few months ago I was training for a half marathon which I could not complete due to me breaking my elbow during a training run :( So in an impromptu decision I decided since I was halfway there I should just sign up for a full marathon this fall. (I know this is not a normal impulse buy...what can I say I'm crazy) This week marks the beginning of my 15 week training for my marathon on November 18th when I will tackle Brooklyn through a nice and easy 26.2 mile run. Since my longest distance the past few months of running has been 6 miles I think I'm underestimating the task at hand....Following in my fathers footsteps I decided to add a new aspect and use this blog as an outlet for logging my fitness and nutrition as well. I usually use blogs found on Pinterest to motivate me and give me great ideas for workouts so I figure why not use my own blog to motivate myself and others. Now I can stop using the "camera adds 10lbs" excuse after vacations and a summer of relaxing and get back in shape. Hopefully as work picks up this will help me keep the stress down, but don't worry I will try to throw in some fun :)

Ill leave you with a pic from a run I took a couple weeks ago on the UWS.....this is why I love running in New York
