So, Dan and I snuck away for 9 days to the beautiful island of Kauai at the end of April into May. We’d been apart for 3 months and we knew we wanted to see each other before August 31st, when we’ll be reunited next, but the timing was tricky with me job hunting. So […]

Disclaimer- This is a recap of my race experience. I don’t recommend/encourage running a race while sick. Wow. That’s really all I can say. Just kidding, I have a lot to say actually. But my experience at Walt Disney World Marathon Weekend really blew me away. Unforgettable. But first, if you’re not familiar with my […]

My time in Japan is now over. While I do plan to visit, I am no longer an expatriate, no longer a resident of Tokyo. It’s all so strange. I think it will sink in better once I’m settled in Seattle (still on the road!). I have also been horribly sick since the day I […]

In my last entry I blogged all about my races at Tower of Terror, so now I’ll tell you all about the fun stuff my mom and I did! But it starts with the not-so-fun: waking up at 2-something in the morning for the airport shuttle! Oh it was rough. But what was really nice […]

“Who here has run a marathon?” a friend of mine asked tonight. As I was flooded with emotions, about 3-4 of my guests raised their hands and excitedly swapped stories. I kept my hand down. And with that, I think I’m finally ready to talk about my experience at the 2013 Goofy’s Race & a […]
