Running Mama-in-Training

WELCOME! I *occasionally* write about my running/training/kitchen adventures as a way to record & learn from my disasters & triumphs...& maybe to inspire/spur someone on to explore the fun of running. We welcomed our little boy in the spring of 2016 & have been learning how to train & regain fitness post-baby {while juggling working, school, & being a mama/wife}! This is a sometimes wild ride, but I am loving every minute. Happy reading...& training!

Who is this running-mama-in-training?

Rachel Lynn: I'm a 30-something IL native with a passion for living an active lifestyle and inspiring others to do the same. While still very much a novice runner/triathlete in the grand scheme of things, I tend to be constantly "training" for the "next race" on my list and thoroughly enjoy running, racing, and talking with like-minded people and learning from others' experiences and adventures as well as my own.
