About
We are “forty something” women who run and women on the run. We aspire to stay in shape, love our families madly, connect with friends (over a book or a movie), and retain our beauty (inside and out). We have jobs that challenge us and lives that demand our constant attention.
It’s a bold pace to keep…and yes, we are running for our lives.
Running has been the key to our sanity. We hit the road to challenge ourselves (and each other) to put in the miles. It makes us strong-spirited women and good “long distance” friends.
Our goal with this blog is to share, inform, encourage, and perhaps inspire in an effort to help us all keep up!

Hey guys, so I was doing a little research and came across your blog and I think it’s a great concept- I love the idea of having several contributors all on the same blog.
I wanted to let you know about a line of products that you might be interested in. I work with Sof Sole and we are looking for bloggers who run just like you for a little feedback.
