Long Run

Home Stretch Training Run

My final over 20 mile run was crazy hard, but better than I had expected. I was coming off a week of “weather”, with blowing snow and cold temps (in mid-April) so I was missing a few of my runs.…

Running and Peeing (or not being able to)!

Incontinence while on the run is a very common occurrence, especially in older women.

Using real food on a run is a good alternative when you just can't stand gels. Rice Pudding can be used as a carb replacement

I have been experimenting with different things to take on my long runs and ultimately use during the marathon for carb replenishment. This rice pudding with sugar and cinnamon is one of the recipes I developed to test in re-usable pouches.…

I’m Sherry, a 56 year-old runner (hence the wrinkled!) who has gone from running as exercise to loving the sport. I started around 17 years ago when a magazine article proclaimed that in your 40’s its “Welcome to back fat”! I took a look and lo and behold...there it was!! I determined then to lose 30 pounds and thus started my running “journey”...or torture. At first I could walk a mile, run a mile, walk a mile and gradually (verrrrry gradually) worked up to a half marathon.

I have now completed 3 marathons and 6 half marathons. I talk about my training, and also share the things I am learning as I go along. I have found so many helpful resources as I explore and grow as a runner and can't wait to pass them on to you!

I am a mom to 5 children (all married) and grandma (Nani) of 7. My partner in everything is my husband of 36 years, Dave.

I also have a YouTube channel, and Podcast.

In 2019 I attended a RRCA Coaching Certification course and successfully completed the steps to become a run coach. The main reason I did this was to learn more about running and how to set up my own training and to have confidence about the information I am providing on this website and on YouTube.

Although my passion is running, I am also a NASM Certified Personal Trainer. When I coach, I add strength training specifically for running. I also provide Personal Training services for those who are not runners. Check out my Coaching Services if you are interested.
