This morning was day #1 of the 100 Mile Club at Lake Tahoe School! I'm so grateful I get a 2nd chance at this awesome program because I didn't do a very good job with it at my first school. Just look at these happy runners! They (and their families) were willing to get to …

#CelebrateMonday
I may or may not be in bed at 7:23. I'm whooped. And it's only Monday! Speaking of which, today I #CelebrateMonday for boys' morning hair. It just can't be beat to make me grin!
Yet continued
Despite my endorphin filled post about speedwork on Tuesday, I am not the speed demon I might have once almost not nearly been. And this was proven in the red and black of the timing clock on Saturday as I tried (I mean, I did actually run) to run one mile as fast as I …
How to Make a Friend
I saw 2 super How to make a friend boards on instagram (@iteachwhatsyoursuperpower & @digitaldivideconquer) and loved them. So I copied their ideas! Each morning we read a book and the kids post a picture of the cover and the message in the lunchroom. We will finish up next week. (Our 1st 5 day school …
Yet
I had growth mindset and the Power of Yet (phrase borrowed from classdojo) in mind for tonight's post but then we were treated to this and I think that's enough. A beautiful, clear rainbow 🌈 to end the day. 😊
Out of my comfort zone
Thanks to my friend Vicky for getting us out there... On the Reno High track. Speed workouts are terrible, they hurt, I feel like I can't breathe but they're also super satisfying. Things that are hard are with doing. I introduced the writing station today and worked to help my students see that they can …

I'm not sure how much James is understanding, although it seems like he's doing most of the talking, but they're talking away. Phone conversations …

Hiking
It's like trail running but somehow better! I thought hiking was too slow for many years. The years I was trying to become a better trail runner! This summer I've tried to really embrace my days hiking with Zack and they've been great! I mean, look at these views! We left Reno at 7:09 (9 …
First Fun Friday of the year
One of the reasons I love Fun Friday is because I get to spy on my kids in plain sight! I love seeing what they choose then listening them talk through the plans, discussions about how to implement the plans, disagree about steps along the way, and just have fun with each other. I know …
Sunrise
This summer I really noticed, maybe for the first time, how much longer the days are. I would wake up in the daylight, exercise and then walk Molly all in the daylight. And it would be quite a stretch for me to give Molly her bedtime walk in the dark. It's only late August now …
