I'm linking up with My First 5K and More, Running With Attitude, Runs with Pugs, Zenaida and Run Laugh Eat Pie for Fit Five Friday. Today I'm sharing 5 things I learned through running -- not necessarily five things I learned about running. 1: How many meters are … Continue reading 5 Things I Learned through Running

Make Running Fun Again
There are runners that love Summer running. That's not me. I am highly suspicious of anyone that actually loves to run in heat & humidity -- joking (sort of). If you're with me and humidity can feel soul sucking, I want to share ways to at least make it more bearable -- if not actually … Continue reading Make Running Fun Again
Multitasking doesn’t pay off: Runfessions June 2022
I runfess . . .As tempting as it is to leave the foam rolling until after practicing Yoga in the morning, I have learned my lesson and know that I have to do it before -- or it just won't get done. I runfess . . .I mentioned last week that my Garmin has been … Continue reading Multitasking doesn’t pay off: Runfessions June 2022
Running through the Koshas
I ran 9 miles a few weeks ago, so I had plenty of time to think during that run. Which is how I came up with this subject. There are 5 Koshas, so it fit perfectly. What is a Kosha, you ask? According to most Yoga philosophy, you have 5 bodies (some philosophy actually says … Continue reading Running through the Koshas
5 Benefits of Recovery Runs

Peloton & Treadmills: Runfessions May 2022
I runfess . . .I originally was thinking about another 5k in in May. Then it got suddenly hot (and the day the race was run would potentially have thunderstorms as a cold front was supposed to come through). Then COVID started surging again, and I decided it just wasn't a race I wanted to … Continue reading Peloton & Treadmills: Runfessions May 2022
5 Tips to Keep Your Socks Whole!
My socks stay intact, but I know a lot of runners who struggle with holey socks -- and holey running shoes, too! Knock on wood that hasn't been a problem for me so far. I got curious about what might cause this problem and any possible solutions. I'm linking up with My First 5K and … Continue reading 5 Tips to Keep Your Socks Whole!
5 Tips to Choose a Running Tour
If you want to see a new place, exploring on your own is a lot of fun, but if you want to uplevel your adventures, consider a tour (which I wrote about in this post here). I do have to add a caveat: I have not done tours during the Pandemic, and I haven't researched … Continue reading 5 Tips to Choose a Running Tour
Running Up, Down, and Around the Rain: Runfessions April 2022
I runfess . . .This actually happened in March, I think, but then I never wrote about it. I didn't tighten the top on my water bottle completely, and when I got to where I ran, about a quarter of it had leaked out. I was grateful it hadn't all leaked out or gotten me … Continue reading Running Up, Down, and Around the Rain: Runfessions April 2022
5 Artists I’m Loving Lately
I had an alternative title for this post: throwing it way, way back. Let me explain. I've written about my adventures with self massage (throw in dry brushing, too). Using music during the massage and my showers. I grew up singing in a choir and playing in bands/orchestras. I went to music camp. I still … Continue reading 5 Artists I’m Loving Lately
