Not only is my girlfriend Jenn Schott a Boston Qualifying runner, she is a very talented singer/songwriter. She used her gifts to write a song for Ian Miller (a first grader that has already undergone 3 brain surgeries, chemo, and radiation at St. Jude).

There are so many races going on this weekend! What is your weekend run plan?
What’s your favorite type of pie? Mine is chocolate with lots of meringue!
If you HAD to pick one…Pie, Cake, or Cookies? Cake for me!
I have started at a New Orange Fitness we got in town and love it for my cross training days. I hate strength training and it’s really helping me. As a runner, do you struggle to get your heart rate up enough and get your 12+ points in the “orange” ??

I did 7 miles today and have 16 tomorrow morning. I’d choose cookies most of the time. Obviously it depends on which kind of pie, cake or cookies though! Have a great weekend Jen!

Pie for sure! Fresh rhubarb is my favorite.
Running a St. Patrick’s Day 5K, going easy because I seem to have randomly pulled something in my leg that seems like I might want to keep in one piece.
Have a happy weekend!

I had a 10k race yesterday which was great considering the pain I was in. My favorite pie is key lime. It is the best! If I had to choose, I would consider cake my fave! I love the frosting.
