Virtual Races of 2020
Since I started running, in 2007, I’ve made it a goal to run a race every year. I ran two races after I had Eleanor in 2017 and even ran a 5 miler when 13 weeks pregnant with Lincoln.

I knew two things that I wanted/needed though: … Continue reading Phil & Teds Stroller
Volunteering at Run to Home Base
One of the best things about the hotel that I work at is the community that it fosters and the feeling of family and camaraderie. This past Saturday, David and I, and a few other colleagues, volunteered at the Run to Home Base run at Fenway Park; the wake up call was early (4AM!) but … Continue reading Volunteering at Run to Home Base
