Weekend Recap / Race Report: Ragnar Colorado

Ragnar_Who_Run_The_World

Weekend of September 13-15 This weekend was a bit of a whirlwind. On Thursday night, I headed straight from the airport to my friend Sarah’s house way down south (do not pass home, do not collect any clean clothes) – we were headed out first thing Friday morning to run a Ragnar Relay from Castle Rock to Fort Collins (about 200 miles)! I knew a few of the girls on my team – my friend Sarah and her friend Aimee (who I’ve met a few times and who has the most beautiful GSPs to run with!) were in my van, …

Weekend Recap: A Superior Weekend (Race Report: Superior 5K)

Female_Winners_Superior_5K

Weekend of September 6-8 I had originally planned to be in downtown Denver for some meetings Friday afternoon, after which my friend Sara and I were going to meet for happy hour. However, the meetings got canceled, and we decided to bail on the happy hour as well. While I had been looking forward to it all week, I was kind of relieved for the opportunity to not drink, eat well, and head to bed early. I wanted to be rested up and ready to go for Saturday, one of my favorite days of the year in Superior – I’d be …

Race Report / Weekend Recap: Frisco Trails Half and Beaver Creek Food & Wine Festival

Beaver_Creek_Cookies

Weekend of August 10-11 Before I talk about the weekend, I’d like to first write about a truly epic Thursday night. Nonprofits seem to get last minute event tickets to things all the time, but Thursday was the first time I’ve been able to take advantage of that. Our Meals on Wheels volunteer coordinator emailed everyone to say she had four tickets to Billy Joel performing at Coors Field that night, and I ended up being able to snag two of them for myself and my friend Kelli. I was psyched! We met up with my friend Heather (who already …

Weekend Recap / Race Report: XTerra Castle Rock 20K

Castle_Rock_Mile_1_Trying_to_Pass

Weekend of August 2-3 My weekend kicked off with one of my favorite annual work events: our company baseball night at Coors Field! This year, I didn’t know as many of the people attending as usual – we have had a lot of new people move to Denver in the last few months. However, one of those recent arrivals is my colleague Sara – who I met in person for the first time when she moved to Denver two months ago. I was really excited that she and her boyfriend (who also works for PwC) were coming, and we ended up …

Weekend Recap / Race Report: Dynafit Camp Hale Half Marathon

Camp_Hale_Half_Mile_3

Weekend of July 19-21 My weekend started a little bit early – with the kickoff of Back on my Feet (BoMF) Denver at 6:30am. I first heard about BoMF years ago, when Ericka used to volunteer with them in DC. BoMF seeks to combat homelessness by first building confidence and self-esteem through weekly group runs, then enrolling participants in financial literacy classes and job skills training. I was really excited they were coming to Denver! The run was scheduled to start at Denver Rescue Mission’s Crossing facility, where I’ve spent time mentoring women in the STAR program, so I was hoping …
