Hello Friends!
I know it’s cliche to apologize for a long blogging absence, but I have to apologize. I really need more hours in the day because I’ve missed you all! Writing, reading, the whole blog thing!
Let me explain:
Track started! This is my first season being head coach for track (I was head for cross country as well). I was assistant for half of last track season and head coach for the other half, but I am so thrilled to start this season with a fresh outlook and clean slate. We are three weeks into practice and the kids are excited, positive, and itching to get their first meet under their belts.
We moved into our new house! Officially official that we live in our new place. It is by no means “done”, and would be better be described as “glamping”, but we running water, working toilets, and as of yesterday, a brand new stove!
To give you an idea of the work we still need to do, we are using the old kitchen cabinets with a door glued to the top as our kitchen counters. It may not be pretty, but it is extremely functional.
I’m getting back into running. I am so so thrilled to be running the Thelma and Louise Half Marathon in Moab on June 6. Unfortunately, June is right around the corner and my running has been capital S-slacking. Fortunately, our new area has tons of trails to explore.
Rob and I have done three runs together the past few days and no two have been in the same direction or on the same path yet. Woot!
Blog conferences are sneaking up quick. This year, two of the best blog conferences are in Colorado. Blend is hitting Boulder in May (here’s last year’s recap), and Fitbloggin’ is coming to Denver in June. It will be my first year at Fitbloggin’, but I’ve only heard super wonderful things about it.
Ok, it doesn’t sound like much is going, but I promise it’s life has been way more busy than this makes it sound!
RQ: What’s been keeping you busy lately? What’s an unusual way you’ve made something functional?

What are the blog conferences like, Brooke? Can anyone partake, as long as you “blog”? I have considered giving one a try, but have no idea what to expect.
Congrats on officially moving into your new house. My husband and I just sold our house and are currently in the process of looking to buy. It’s been chaotic, so I understand your time away from the blog. What an exciting time for you.
And always, cheers to race registrations and half-marathons. I think now that you registered, you won’t slack as much in the running department. Just my two cents. 😉
Great to see you back on the blog!
I have only been to one blog conference, last year’s Blend, and had a great time! Between the fellowship and sponsors, it was a fantastic learning experience for me. I’m a bit of an introvert in real life, so it definitely put me out of my comfort zone, but I am going back so it couldn’t have been too awkward.
Glad to see your alive!! Congrats on moving into the house!!
hahaha. Thank you!
I love following your house progress on Instagram!!!
So exciting that track season has started – that will keep you busy for sure!!!
Thank you! I’m glad you’re enjoying it as much as I enjoy posting it!
I thought I was missing your blog posts but nope! Glad to hear everything is going well! Missed seeing you in the blogging world!!! 🙂
