If you want to do something in your life you've never done, you'll have to do what you've never done.

About Me

I am a wife and mother of three. I started running in December 2009 after watching the Biggest Loser finalists run a marathon. I joined GoRun, a running group in Lake Charles, LA, to train for a marathon. In January 2011, I ran the Chevron Houston marathon, my very first marathon. Since then, I have run several marathons and numerous half marathons. In February 2011, I ran the Rouge-Orleans as a member of a six-person team. As we would meet the solo runners, members of my team would comment how crazy the solo runners were. However, in my mind I kept thinking that I could do that with the right training. After talking with my running coach, we set up a plan so that I would run the Rouge-Orleans solo in 2015. In the meantime, I would like to do endurance races. After much research, I determined to do the Mississippi 50-miler as my official first ultra race. (In 2013 I'm doing Rouge-Orleans as a three-person team.) Thus starts my journey....

Ode to Tape

Oh, how I love to run
But the blisters were no pun
Around mile 14 they would start to fester
And at mile 21 they became a pester
Then I found wrapping tape,
My new love
For the blisters were afeared
And now steer clear!
