Play ball! Yesterday officially kicked off the 2016 Major League Baseball Season. I can’t believe it’s that time of year again. I mean, seriously, how is it suddenly April?! And is it really snowing today?! And with the start of the season comes another opportunity for your kids (age 14 and under) to join Red […]
What’s On my 2016 Racing Radar
So I’m not gonna lie to you guys…I’ve been thinking about my 2016 race schedule since the fall. Once I couldn’t run (whether it was due to injury or being sick, or both) I became fixated on both redemption and starting anew. Not that I had to redeem myself from anything. I totally get that. […]
A Review of The Boston Ballet’s “The Nutcracker” {2015}

So you’ll understand why the idea of spending two hours on a sailboat with my family, cruising around Boston Harbor, enjoying the warm […]

I swear, it does not come out and leaves a lovely but stubborn ring in the bathtub when he’s done). But it’s all […]

Happy Monday! Can you believe Memorial Day — the unofficial start to summer, and the date of my first trail race (!) — is one week from today? Seriously, what the heck happened to spring? Maybe it was our brutal winter, but I feel like we leapfrogged right from winter to summer around here … […]
