Dreamer with a Day Job

Kate Ziegler. Runner of Silly Long Distances. Designer of Beautiful Things. Rider of Bicycles. Culinary Guesstimator. Travel Fanatic. Contemporary Art Enthusiast. Fashion Magazine Addict.

Full-time Master of All Things Logistical, after-hours Partner at Union Jack Creative.

A few things I am not:
-pro-ana
-a speedy runner
-shy about public speaking
-opposed to cocktails before noon
-sorry for including all of my interests in one confused tumblelog

This blog contains my personal musings, adventures and inspirations.

Shenanigans, beautiful finds and Instagrammed shots from daily life, you can follow here. Shoes, cocktails, feathers and food; fashion, running, bikes and art. Sometimes politics. Sometimes athletics. Sometimes all of the above.

My full account (running only, no stilettos) of my athletic ambitions since running the 2011 Boston Marathon for charity is at KateRuns, though I share snippets here as often as possible.

Want to get in touch? Ask me anything or shoot me an email at kate [at] unionjackcreative [dot] com! I tweet and facebook, too.

Be sure to also follow Union Jack Creative for a more gender neutral dose of design and contemporary art.

KateRaffles: The Clymb There was definitely another run involved in the past week, but for the life of me I can’t recall the details. It’s been that kind of busy around here. On Saturday, I skipped the team 15-miler to represent Hollaback! Boston at Ladyfest. I had intended to cut the mileage short anyway, since Jack and I were slated for race on Sunday - the Super Sunday 5-Miler. The weather was cold, but sunny and beautiful. The course was a mostly-flat loop from Kendall Square around Cambridge, and the after party included plenty of friends and free beer. Jack finished his very first road race intact, and I clocked in just a smidge over 10 minute miles - which, for me, is excellent. These are our singing faces. Good times were had by all. But, more importantly: another Clymb raffle! Up for grabs this week is a $100 credit to use as you see fit, on any sale at The Clymb. In their own words, “For those who find their passion in the outdoors, The Clymb inspires human-powered adventure by delivering member-exclusive 72-hour sales on premium brands and experiences, hand-picked by our team of fellow enthusiasts and experts.” KateRuns readers (whether you win or not) get a $10 credit to The Clymb if you sign up through this link. Last week, due to a late posting, I extended the raffle through this evening, rather than ending on Sunday. Considering the jump in entries I’ve received so far today, it seems that a Monday end might be prudent – and so, you have until Monday, February 13 at 11:59pm to donate and comment here for a chance to win. (What a Valentine’s surprise that would be, yes? $100 to spend as you please!) Good luck! TL,DR: Fast(ish) five, $100 up for grabs. Comments?
