Hey there! I’m currently blogging from a flight to D.C! I’ll be there for the next two days – a quick in-and-out for work 🙂 I realized last week was the first in 3 years of having this blog that I did not write a post. I decided to take a week off because nothing … More Summer craziness + wake up call + redirecting life energy
I have a fun little post today that I’ve been wanting to write for a while :). I recently celebrated my 2 year anniversary of living in San Francisco (woohoo!). Before that, I lived in NYC for 6 years (hopping around Manhattan, Brooklyn and Queens). Living in these two cities has been, gratifying, challenging, and … More Living in New York City vs San Francisco
And just like that, it’s Monday and another summer weekend has flown by! Last week I was on the road for work in D.C. It was pretty hectic and filled with meetings + drinks/dinners + lots of time on the airplane…the good part was getting to soak in the warm summer on the east coast … More Open, spontaneous weekend + Treasure Island flea market + Pride parade
Hey you guys! This past weekend hit my happy spot as I spent almost every waking minute in the sunny outdoors. There was a good mix of relaxation vs. partying, and being social vs. plenty of “me” time. Let’s get into it: Friday: Summer solstice solo hike Last week of work was absolutely crazy. I … More Summer solstice solo hike + All Day I Dream festival
Hi friends! Hope you all had a great weekend filled with relaxing summer fun 🙂 My intention last week was to slow things down, take time to reflect and transition back to life after my Philippines trip. I feel centered and happy with the reflection (see my last post!) and feel like I’m present with … More Settled with chaos + random shenanigans of my week
Hey there! I cannot believe it’s only been one week since my Philippines trip. The transition back to reality was quite abrupt, not because I’m not happy to be back since I do love it here and feel like I’m in a great spot with my life in SF, but more so because right when … More Abrupt transition + a very SF weekend + Ocean Beach bonfire
As you can tell from the title, this is going to be a super packed post. Last weekend was the last before my solo trip to the Philippines (how did it sneak up so quickly?!), and so I wanted to fill every second with fun and seeing friends again before taking off. Friday: Wevine’s graduation … More Graduation toast & reunion + Sophie’s birthday in Sonoma with a party bus + goat yoga + roller skating picnic + mother’s day video!
It’s been a week since my marathon and life has really had a 180. I basically took a full week off of exercising last week and it felt amazing to have the mental break and sleep in every morning. It’s been a weird shift going from working so hard the past few months to total … More 10 flights + last stop Austin + Cinco de Mayo festivities + change of plans
This past week on the road, I’ve spent a lot of time reflecting on this training cycle. Running the past 4 months has felt “business as usual,” and I never took a step back to think about “the why” I do it all… Last weekend was the Boston Marathon. As I watched the elite men’s race finishing … More One more week + “the why”
This was the highest mileage week of the training cycle at 38 miles! Not gonna lie, I felt a lot of pressure the whole week. The daunting 20 miles was coming up and I felt like there was no cushion to fail. I chose a 2-week taper versus 3- 4 weeks as lots of runners … More Keepin’ it real in peak week + live art and surprise birthdays + upcoming month of travel + week 15 of marathon training
