Cherry Blossom Run Race Recap

By Janelle @ Run With No Regrets | race recap , running

Hey there!  It is Thursday, and for me, it has been a very long, very slow week.  Hopefully it hasn’t felt the same for you!  I’m itching to get to the weekend, but we’re not quite there yet…

But I am so excited to FINALLY share my experience with the Cherry Blossom Run!  If you’ve been following my blog, you know that I spent 10 weeks training for this race, mostly in tough winter conditions, so I was feeling quite a bit of pressure to have a good race.  So let me give a full recap…I hope you enjoy it!

Happy Friday!!  I am SO happy that the weekend is here!  In less than 48 hours I’ll be finally racing in the Cherry Blossom Run.  A few days ago I shared my goals for the race, so now I’m just impatiently waiting for the big day.  I’m so nervous and excited as I get packed for Washington, DC!

Log Off, Shut Down, Go Run Virtual 10K April 24-26

From Gone For a Run

A few days ago I was contacted by Gone for a Run to sign up for their first virtual race, the Log Off, Shut Down, Go Run Virtual 10K.  I’ve never run a virtual race, but I thought it would be interesting to try it out.  As I prepare to travel for a race for the first time, I’m loving the idea of being on the other side of the spectrum and being able to set out on a race as soon as I step out the door!

Goals for the Cherry Blossom Run

By Janelle @ Run With No Regrets | training

Happy Wednesday!  Another day, another dollar right?  It’s weird how slowly this week has been going.  On Monday night I had a blast watching Wisconsin vs. Duke, but was VERY disappointed in the outcome (spoiler alert – Duke won!).  I had predicted Wisconsin would win it all, and it was so CLOSE…but alas, it wasn’t meant to be.  But on the bright side, I won my bracket pool, giving me bragging rights and a nice chunk of change!  Thanks Kentucky for busting everyone’s brackets!  But I digress…

Since it’s Wednesday, it’s time to talk about my training for the Cherry Blossom Run, which is THIS SUNDAY!  I’m sharing my updates as part of Workout Wednesday, hosted by Diatta from Femme Fitale Fit Club and Sheila from The Frugal Exerciser!  It’s a great linkup where fitness bloggers post great workouts and share lots of useful tips!  Be sure to show them some love!
