Did you say 6:30am? That could never be me…

Spring 2016: “There’s this thing called November Project that meets at Harvard stadium, do you want to go?” my roommate said to me as we laid across from each other in our twin sized beds. “What time?” I replied. As she scrolled her phone further, my roommate paused and read aloud “6:30am”. “That’s way too early, hell no” we both exclaimed as we looked at each other and turned over. read more

Introducing: Neighborhood Residencies

Hey y’all!

If you’re reading this, you’ve almost made it through February. A month usually reserved for cold snaps and a lot of gray days, we’ve felt some warmth from the sun this month and took in many beautiful sunrises together. We’re really glad you’re here and showing up – the winter days elevate us to a whole other level of beast mode that challenges us both physically and mentally.  But we’re here, we’re doing it, and most importantly, we’re doing it together. read more

Be runnin’ up that hill – By Kate Driessen

It’s the soundtrack to Chariots of Fire that rouses me from my sleep. Day of the Athens Marathon. A slow-motion montage of 16 weeks of tempo runs, threshold runs, trail runs and Sunday long runs plays in my head and I AM SO HERE FOR THIS. My roommate’s humorous yet motivational choice of dramatic run-themed tunes continues, and so, possibly foretelling of unexpected sporting glory, I hurriedly get dressed, vaseline my feet, grab my gear and hit the streets. read more

Can You Survive Until Sunrise?

Part Zombie Apocalypse, all workout

You almost can’t remember a time when they weren’t a part of your life. Back in the day before that chemical spill and the resulting toxic cloud turned half your small town into something…unspeakable. Even worse, the government has just put your town into quarantine and left you to fend for yourselves, hoping the problem will “take care of itself”. Given your remote location in the mountains, they’re sure they can resolve this quietly.
But that’s not how you’re willing to play this. You all are not going to let your town go down without a fight.  read more
