Product management, running, personal style, but not necessarily in that order

anyone struggling to slow down on easy runs should listen to barbra streisand's memoir. for 48hrs your goal goes from finishing each run to finding out who is barbra going to sleep with next/ what snacks is she eating/ how crazy is jon peters going to be

you're welcome

That feeling when your long-term friends are shocked when you remind them you're 5'1 (and a half!!!!!!!) because you have "tall person energy"

Last Sunday I ran the Valencia marathon, the 4th fastest marathon in the world.

The marathon for the past few years has been my nemesis. I haven't raced well at this distance for years (take your iron, ladies!), and I haven't raced intentionally at this distance ever.
