EP16- Moving to New York City

Moving to New York City has been the best decision of my entire life. I am obsessed with the busy-bee lifestyle, the place I  live, the people I’ve met, the places to run, the food to eat, the areas to explore.. I love it all. When I was first moving to the city a few months ago I was frustrated that I could not find a good honest podcast episode that talked about all things moving to NYC.. the highs, the lows, the things to know, the pieces of advice, the random anecdotes.. And everything in between. I promised myself that when I was fully settled into my new life in the city I would make the episode I never could find.. So happy to say that here we are doing the thang!

Topics Covered in This Episode:

I hope you all live somewhere you love as much as I love NYC : )

EP15- Breaking Free of the Injury Cycle

I am so grateful to say that after four years of dealing with an awful injury cycle, I am finally healthy & Free! It’s taken me so much work (mental, physical, and emotional) to get to a place of strong, durable, healthy, sustainable training, and I’ve learned so much along the way. This episode has been highly requested as of late and I’m so pumped to finally be sharing it with you all!

EP11- On Running Slower Than Before

In my four years of college I have never raced faster than my high school PRs. A large reason for this has been my battles with injury: 4 bone injuries and two major surgeries. Racing again after time away (to heal) yields a mixture of emotions - happiness and gratitude to be competing but doubt/frustration that running feels hard/you’re not running the way you used to. This is a fairly universal experience for an injured runner but it’s not talked about enough. I want to share some tips I have mastered on the subject through my injury cycles to hopefully provide some love, encouragement, and healthy reminders.
