Wow…

ByNichole Porath

It’s so cold and miserable out! Hope I can muster the dedication to stick to the plan (today is supposed to be 10-12 400s)… there’s nothing easier than staying in and skipping workouts than weather like this :(.

One cool thing that happened yesterday: Gu sent me an entire bag of energy gels and chews!!! One of the men I work with at RWSC knows the VP of sales at Gu – I was encouraged to leave my PRs with the GU VP to see what they could do for me, so I did. I didn’t hear anything back, so assumed that was a “no”.

But, low and behold, they did! Wow!! How cool is that?!? It’s literally enough to get me through the trials next year… wonder if that’s by coincidence. 🙂

Ups and Downs

I’m now faster than I was post-Beauterre/pre-Anna (see the December 2016 5k race blog post here), which is a point in my life that I remember as being “fast”. So despite the seemingly frequent downs, I hang…

So SAD!

ByNichole Porath

Both times we’ve had a major snow storm, Nate’s been in Hibbing. That leaves me to try to clear our driveway. Ug. It’s 2+ cars wide, and long. Today I successfully cleared 1/2 of it. Success! Only took 1.5 hours. I was actually really proud of this. The end of the driveway is always the…

Spots open on “the team” for coaching!

Spots open on “the team” for coaching!

ByNichole Porath

I have a couple of spots open for athletes as I’m expanding my team post-Chicago.  I’ve decided not to go back to the finance/business world and instead continue to focus on my coaching and my own running. I am so freaking in love with coaching, and excited about my athletes’ potential! My life post-MBA-full-time-career is…
