Month: March 2022

We tried it: Wildgrain Box

March 29, 2022March 28, 2022 ~ Chocolaterunsjudy ~ 18 Comments

Do you love bread? Silly question for most runners, right? Although there are runners with gluten issues or runners like me who gain weight easily when we eat too much bread. Which doesn't mean I don't eat bread! If you fall into the runner who loves their bread category, have I got the subscription box … Continue reading We tried it: Wildgrain Box

Hitting pause: 3/21 – 27 WRD

March 27, 2022 ~ Chocolaterunsjudy ~ 28 Comments

This week may have been getting a little bit of what I need. Thankfully the fever was very short lived, but a low grade temp lingered. I wasn't down and out, but I really wasn't feeling like running in the beginning of the week, so I didn't. Plus I was busy wrapping up Spring into … Continue reading Hitting pause: 3/21 – 27 WRD

Alternate Title: Running without a Bra I runfess . . .If you do Peloton cycling, have you ever noticed the ratio of cool down rides to warm up rides? At least 3 to 1, if not more. Why aren't there more warm up rides? I'm using them to warm up for my runs but hey, … Continue reading Trying to Warm Up: Runfessions March 2022

Hello Spring!: 3/14 – 20 WRD

March 20, 2022 ~ Chocolaterunsjudy ~ 34 Comments

I had been wanting to get to Delaware for an exploratory visit; had even been researching towns to check out. When I saw the weather for this week, somehow I sweet-talked a reluctant Mr. Judy into the trip. We booked the AirBnB late Saturday, and left early Tuesday. I'm joining Kim @ Kimrunsonthefly and Deborah … Continue reading Hello Spring!: 3/14 – 20 WRD

Breathe: A Book Review

March 18, 2022March 13, 2022 ~ Chocolaterunsjudy ~ 16 Comments

Fast Lung Recovery Methods by an World Elite Athlete Darya Klishina's story is a light read, and yet there's a lot to take away from this relatively short, easy read. Darya shares what it was like growing up in and making her way as an elite athlete in Russia. The real point of the story, … Continue reading Breathe: A Book Review

Happy 94, Mom!: 3/7 – 13 WRD

March 13, 2022 ~ Chocolaterunsjudy ~ 34 Comments

With lots of family (unpictured obviously) it was a very happy birthday Between Thanksgiving and Christmas we were truly unsure if my mom would even see 2022, much less her 94th birthday, but here we are. Being on Hospice and not having to go to doctors has helped to stabilize her. The name of the … Continue reading Happy 94, Mom!: 3/7 – 13 WRD

Maybe you have a great big lovely bathroom -- lucky you! I have a relatively small, narrow bathroom. That doesn't mean I don't have a few tips up my sleeve to make that bathroom feel like time spent in a Spa. I'm linking up with My First 5K and More, Running With Attitude, Runs with Pugs, Zenaida and Run Laugh … Continue reading 5 Tips to Turn Your Bathroom into a Spa

The lure of all distances

March 8, 2022March 3, 2022 ~ Chocolaterunsjudy ~ 27 Comments

Some runners like the distance races. Other runners prefer the shorter races. Me? I enjoy the challenges of all the different distances I've tried. The 5k In some ways it seems runners either love or hate the 5k. Short -- but still challenging. You can't go out too fast or you'll most likely be dying … Continue reading The lure of all distances

Grinding Away: 2/28 – 3/6 WRD

March 6, 2022March 6, 2022 ~ Chocolaterunsjudy ~ 27 Comments

My heart was heavy much of this week, as I'm sure was the case for many people. What is going on in the Ukraine reminds me of the Warsaw Ghetto uprising -- if you're not familiar with it, google it. I think the world is in a different place now, though, or at least I … Continue reading Grinding Away: 2/28 – 3/6 WRD
