Buffalo Marathon Training Week 10: On Apple Watches and the Outer Harbor

So this was another rest week, in preparation for 21 miles next week. The weather is starting to be a bit better, so I was more anxious to get out there and run. On the day of my typical long…

Buffalo Marathon Training Week Four: Back to Snow and Ice!

[caption id="attachment_165" align="alignleft" width="95"] "The Pearl" Shanghai[/caption] This week was a pretty good training week, both in Shanghai and Buffalo. We were moving back to Buffalo so had to pack up, but it was still easy to get the runs…

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.
