A runner's thoughts
"To all who come to this happy place, welcome"--Walt Disney.

Hi there! I'm Sarah. I'm a 21 year old college student studying to be an elementary music teacher. Besides music, my greatest passion is running and fitness in general. I struggled with an eating disorder for three years and am in the process of freeing myself from it. I run marathons and hopefully want to complete an ironman one day. My blog is more than just fitness and recovery though. I am a huge book nerd, a whovian, a potterhead and a lover of travel. :) I'm also going to be in the Disney College Program this year so I'll be posting about that a lot. Let's be friends! :)


What’s next?

So, since I have a little bit of time because I’m waiting for the pharmacy to fill my prescription, I’ve decided to fill you guys in on what’s happening next. At Detroit, I hit my goal of running a sub 4-hr marathon. Can you guys guess what my next goal is?

Yep, I want to qualify for Boston. It may take a few tries but I know that I can do it. To qualify for my age group, I have to run a marathon in 3:35. My average pace would have to be around 8:13/mile. Yes, I’ve done the calculations. ;) I chopped 28 minutes off of my marathon time between my first and second one and I think I can do it again. I have a few choice marathons picked out.

Yep, I’m going to run the flying pig next may!! :D Next year, my mom wants to run her first marathon in october. Can you guess which one we’ve picked out?

We want to run the Chicago Marathon. :) I’m so excited to see where running will take me in the next year. Right now, I’m taking some time off of the hard training and resting my body but I’ll be working hard again soon! :) I just wanted to share my goals with you guys. Thanks for following me!! <3
