Goodness! It has been awhile!  I blame a few things for my lack of bloggering but lets not point fingers and just get down to what has been keeping me busy.

Early April I was able to see CALIFORNIA for the first time, flying over for Nicole's birthday and spending 10 days in "running camp" mode. Pretty much, our days revolved around the following:

eating
running
organizing nicoles apartment
making friends at Sal's sandwich place
running again
coffee and staring at the Starbucks coffee boy
kindling
playing with the gopro
sleeping

I liked the time to just focus on things that I wanted to focus on, running hard and brainstorming life plans.   I was so thankful for the California trails and running buddy to spice up my training. The trip came at the peak of my mileage in training for the 25k Riverbank run, so it was great to devote time to really prep for each run, think about what I was doing, and execute, without work or anything else getting in the way.

Now that I'm back in MI I'm getting excited about racing this summer, and the awesome things that are happening at UR Sportswear.  What is this, you ask? Well it's a sportswear company (brand new) that makes ridiculously comfortable and attention grabbing spandex running shorts.  They sponsor me and in return I blog for them about my training, tips, and other fun stuff people might be interested in. You should definitely check them out, their product launched May 15 so go get them! www.ursportswear.com



As for career stuff, I am still working at Pfizer but I have taken on a mini job of finding as many contacts within the company as possible that could direct me towards the global health field. I am also applying to TONS of internships in hopes of getting in touch with global NGO's that help with care, treatment, and prevention of disease.  Fingers crossed!
