I just modified the song slightly (I, instead of we) to fit my love songs for 2019 theme. No, I am not broken, I'm well, although over the last few months it kind of felt like I was a little broken. It's sort of going to be a theme this week, I think. Normally I'd … Continue reading I found love in the broken places: May 2019

Love Will Keep Us Together: April 2019
Yup, had this post *almost* ready to go last week, but not quite ready. So I'm wrapping up April today. Technically I only missed running those last couple of days in April.

March is a big birthday month in my family, and there was a lot of celebrating going on.

I Can’t Make You Love Me

What is love? Baby don’t hurt me

November 2018: Did I pass?
When it comes to racing, 2018 was just an odd year. Some highs, some lows, and a lot of races that just didn't happen (but luckily weren't registered for so I lost nothing). Getting in scheduled runs Essentially there were no scheduled runs. No big goal races. Not as much racing as I usually do … Continue reading November 2018: Did I pass?
October 2018: Did I pass?
October was a lot less busy than September, and after a couple of months of travel -- mostly fun stuff -- I was ready for a slower pace.
