Still A Success

It’s been a long day. I was up at 4:30 am in order to get up to Connecticut for today’s Fairfield Half Marathon. The full recap will come tomorrow — because right now my priorities are frozen yogurt and sleep — but here’s what I’ll tell you about the 13.1 miles I ran this morning… […]

‘Twas The Night Before Fairfield

Tomorrow I will run 13.1 miles through Fairfield, CT. The way I see it, this race could go one of two ways: I wake up, feel amazing, say F-you Crohn’s and totally dominate the course. (I love this option.) I wake up, don’t feel so hot, and get through the race knowing I’m doing my […]

I Need Lists To Function

Oh hey Friday. You snuck up on me there! It’s nice to see you. Today is going to be a bit of a crazy day (aren’t they all?), and on crazy days, I only function by way of lists. Here’s just a little snapshot of today’s “Get All This Done” list: So yeah… I’ll work […]

Thankful Things Thursday: Yoga, Run, Braid

Happy Thursday! I said it yesterday and I’ll say it again: This week has been a super speedy one. I can hardly even remember what happened on Monday. So let’s keep moving right along and get down to it: Today is Thursday, and on Thursdays I like to take some time to think about the […]

Ali At The Doctor

Wednesday! When the heck did it become Wednesday? This week is flying. I have a good feeling about today — anybody else? Despite the fact that I hardly slept last night (I cannot for the life of me figure out how to be in bed before 11 pm), plus the fact that I woke up […]

I Am Not Sick

Good morning! It’s a beautiful day in New York City — and it’s the first day of summer! I can think of no better way to start the day than with a Central Park run. But we’ll get back to that. First I will tell you that I made something good last night. It didn’t […]

Dizzy

Happy Monday! It’s been a whirlwind couple of days and I have a pretty strong feeling today is going to kick my butt. After working from home two days last week then taking Friday off to travel to Charlotte, it’s safe to say I’m way behind at the office and in life. In case you’re […]

I Love My Dad

I’m back in NYC (with a coach-approved 3-mile run behind me, no less). Charlotte was good to me and I’ll update a bit more tomorrow, but I wanted to post a little note to wish all the fathers out there a very Happy Father’s Day. Yet another holiday that should be acknowledged more often. But […]

Fun In Charlotte

Hi from Charlotte — again! It’s been such a great trip so far and I’m heartbroken that in just 12 hours I’ll be on my way to the airport to fly back to NYC. You know I love you, New York, but Charlotte has been pretty good to me. A quick recap of the trip: […]

Hi From Charlotte!

I woke up at the blissfully late hour of 7:30 this morning — and I woke up in a big bed in Charlotte, NC! My trip is off to a great start. I worked from home yesterday, which was far busier and more stressful than anticipated. Some good news: I called my doctor yesterday and […]
