Announcement – I'm Running The 2014 LiveUltimate Run Los Angeles

Disclosure:  This post in sponsored by the Live Ultimate RUN series.  All thoughts and opinions expressed are my own.

Ever since my Ragnar, it’s been a bit difficult for me to get back into running.

 

Ragnar Relay

 

Even after the Boston Marathon last week, I’ve been slacking in the motivation and the execution department.

 

However, after watching my 7 year old win the relay race for his first grade team in the local All City Track Meet (after winning the Jog-A-Thon with the equivalent of a 10K in 60 minutes),

my running mojo was reignited and I’m proud to announce….

The 6 Things You Need To Do A Ragnar Relay

The So Cal Ragnar Relay is done and I know that I’ve shared just about everything I could about this race before it actually took place – from my intended music playlist, introducing all of my team members AND (if you follow me on Instagram or Twitter), you might have seen a few zillion pictures of gorgeous California scenery, many gorgeous sweaty runners and many obnoxious pictures of the So Cal Ragnar Medal but guess what?  I’m not done yet.

The Ragnar Relay is a very special breed of running experience.  My teammate Gillian coined Ragnar the “Coachella For Runners” and she’s absolutely right.  When the topic came up at FitBloggin’ last year, I said yes but I was scared to death (I do have 4 half marathon DNS’s in the last 4 years due to injury) but after this fantastic experience, I’m already thinking about Ragnar #2.  I think every runner should think about doing a relay race so that’s why I’ve come up with:

6 Things Ragnar Relay

 (and why you’ll want to do another one as soon as you’re done with your first) […]

Fridays Featured FemaleS – The Dirrty Dozen Ragnar Team

Welcome to Friday’s Featured FemaleS!

Friday's Featured Female, #FFF

This week’s feature doesn’t just highlight one woman but it highlights a #DirrtyDozen of them.  Today I want to give a huge shout out the members of my So Cal Ragnar Team (technically, I’m not highlighting myself but 11 sounded ridiculous).

Get to know these 11 amazing women that will be covering 200 miles with me (from Huntington Beach to San Diego).  Not all of these ladies are bloggers (and many aren’t even active in social media) but they are all amazing women and athletes.  The list below is in runner order with their leg mileages and terrain difficulty noted: […]

It’s almost time for the So Cal Ragnar Relay race!

 

Ragnar Relay Series, runchat

12 Friends, 2 Vans, 2 Days, 1 Night 200 miles (from Huntington Beach to San Diego)!  

 

This is my first relay.  Even though I’m covering the least amount of mileage (10 miles in total), it’s longer than I’ve run in a very long time and I’m excited and nervous about it.  I definitely haven’t trained like I planned and I have friends in town for the entire week leading up to race day (I’m actually cutting out on them early to meet my van) but with a motto like this one, how could you NOT be excited?

Forgive the premature April Fool’s Joke.

 

In all seriousness though, today is the end date for you […]
