With my boys after finishing my second 1/2 marathon – September 2014.

I work full time doing a job I love as a university administrator.  My husband and I have two boys, ages 8 and 6.  They all play hockey.  A lot.  All three of them.  All the time.  Like, it’s a lot of hockey.  What about Summer you say?  Nope, in Minnesota (the State of Hockey – go Wild!) it’s hockey all year long.  While I’m at the rink (which is often) I’m on the laptop working on my Ph.D. in Education and in my free time I’m working on training for my first Marathon coming up in October.

I love having a full plate and proving that you CAN have and do it ALL with a little planning and focus.  (Sometimes this is easier said than done but I look forward to sharing my experiences, ups *and* downs.)
