0:12.0	Welcome to The Alley on the Run Show.
0:18.5	I'm your host Allie Feller and it is just us today for this edition of Ask Allie.
0:24.1	This is where you get to call in and ask whatever's on your mind and I answer.
0:28.6	How are you doing today?
0:29.6	I'm recording this on Monday, October 18th and I am so tired.
0:34.7	On the last Ask Allie episode, I believe I mentioned how busy this month was going to be for me and yeah, we are in the thick of it.
0:42.2	I was in New York City for a Lulu lemon photo shoot and then I was in Boston for a live show with Nell Rojas during Boston Marathon weekend.
0:50.3	Then it was Annie's third birthday and we had a party at our house which was just...
0:54.8	It was the best. If you have followed along for a while, you may know that Brian, my husband and I, we've never lived in a house together before.
1:02.6	One that was ours. We always lived in apartments together in New York City and then in Wehock in New Jersey.
1:08.8	And then when the pandemic hit, we lived with my parents for a year and a half.
1:13.1	But now we are in our own place and it feels so wonderful and having Annie's friends here running around the yard,
1:20.4	playing in a bouncy house, doing an egg hunt. At one point during the party, I just looked out at the yard, filled with toddlers and their parents and I felt really, really, really happy.
1:32.0	And then I ran the New England half marathon the next day. That race was on Sunday and I went into it thinking there is no way it could go well considering how busy and exhausting things have been.
1:44.4	I don't think I ate or drank anything the entire day before because I was so busy doing stuff for Annie's party.
1:51.5	But it turned out to be a pretty great day on the run. The best day on the run. Actually, I ran a half marathon PR, a personal best, PR personal record,
2:02.9	which is something I had not done since 2011. So that feels pretty darn good to be able to say that my best ever time in the half marathon
2:12.8	was not only recent, but it came well into my 30s after having a child. So yeah, mom speed is real. I'm here to vouch for that.
2:22.5	And now we've got two weeks and then I'm back in New York City for my favorite weekend of the whole year.
2:28.8	Yeah, you know what it is. It's New York City Marathon week. There's so much going on. I will be in town for four and a half days.
