So this is something a bit different on the blog! I wanted to talk a bit more about what my marathon training journey has been like this year. I know, it’s not book related and is a bit of a departure from the norm on the blog but it really was a big portion of my life this year!

The good things: I became way more involved and actually voted in local elections, became more aware of things going on locally and nationally, and donated and supported important organizations and causes. My mom underwent some scary health problems but is recovering better than anyone could have predicted — we […]

Of UtopYa and Nashville Adventures! Part 2

Posted July 1, 2015 by Wendy in Personal, recap / 5 Comments

I talked about the first part of my UtopYa and Nashville adventures in part 1 earlier this week and now it’s time to relive the remainder of the trip!
