Two Goodbyes: 1/23 – 29 WRD

January 29, 2023January 29, 2023 ~ Chocolaterunsjudy ~ 38 Comments

Last Sunday it was goodbye to my high school friend's mother. This week it was goodbye to Mr. Judy's uncle. Although relatively young (early 80s) and relatively healthy, he'd been in the hospital with pancreatitis almost a month. They were actually talking about him going home -- and then in a few days he was … Continue reading Two Goodbyes: 1/23 – 29 WRD

A Welcome Dose of Sunshine . . . : 1/16 – 22 WRD

January 22, 2023 ~ Chocolaterunsjudy ~ 27 Comments

. . . in a very gray week Another week, another pop up chance to visit my mom. Trying to reframe here! Had nothing to do with her, actually -- I'll talk a bit more about it in the favorites section. Oh, yeah, I ran, too. A teeny bit. I'm joining Kim @ Kimrunsonthefly and … Continue reading A Welcome Dose of Sunshine . . . : 1/16 – 22 WRD

Finally some quiet!: 1/9 – 15 WRD

January 16, 2023 ~ Chocolaterunsjudy ~ 13 Comments

The title of this blog has a double meaning: More R & R New, quieter dishwasher I'm joining Kim @ Kimrunsonthefly and Deborah @ Confessionsofamotherrunner and still staying active with Yoga, Pilates, and dog walks. Still not running . . . I did consider it, but all in all it was a busy -- and … Continue reading Finally some quiet!: 1/9 – 15 WRD

R & R: 1/2 – 8 WRD

January 8, 2023January 8, 2023 ~ Chocolaterunsjudy ~ 25 Comments

Not much to report. Taking a bit of a break -- you may or may not have noticed I didn't even post last week. I didn't do much. Heck, I didn't do much this week either, but I wanted to check in with y'all. I'm joining Kim @ Kimrunsonthefly and Deborah @ Confessionsofamotherrunner and staying … Continue reading R & R: 1/2 – 8 WRD

Happy Holidays!: 12/19 – 25 WRD

December 25, 2022December 25, 2022 ~ Chocolaterunsjudy ~ 25 Comments

The plan was to try to squeeze in three runs in this week, but after two runs my body clearly wasn't really digging the lack of rest so I let that go. I've worked really hard to try to relax more this December, even though that got completely hijacked by last week. I'd rather rest … Continue reading Happy Holidays!: 12/19 – 25 WRD

I lied to you: 12/12 – 18 WRD

December 18, 2022December 18, 2022 ~ Chocolaterunsjudy ~ 38 Comments

Okay, it was a lie by omission. Remember when I told you Mr. Judy asked "you know it's snowing, right" when I told him I was running last Sunday? What I didn't tell you was that he asked that question from Seattle. Because he was out visiting his mom. I had a busy week of … Continue reading I lied to you: 12/12 – 18 WRD

Bye Bye, Trails!: 12/5 – 11 WRD

December 11, 2022 ~ Chocolaterunsjudy ~ 19 Comments

Sleep was spotty this week, which led to many senior moments. There was a trip to mom, so there was a short hike but a bit less running than I wanted. As usual I just tried to do the best I could. I'm joining Kim @ Kimrunsonthefly and Deborah @ Confessionsofamotherrunner and wondering why that … Continue reading Bye Bye, Trails!: 12/5 – 11 WRD

All the leaves are brown . . .: 11/28 – 12/4 WRD

December 4, 2022 ~ Chocolaterunsjudy ~ 28 Comments

. . . and they're all on the ground I had this post almost completely written yesterday (on the desktop). When I went to put in the photos from my phone, somehow all the stuff I'd updated disappeared. So here I am, trying to recreate 90% of the post. The week started out rough with … Continue reading All the leaves are brown . . .: 11/28 – 12/4 WRD

A Balanced Week: 11/21 – 27 WRD

November 27, 2022November 26, 2022 ~ Chocolaterunsjudy ~ 26 Comments

Despite two lost days this week (Thanksgiving & going to the movies) I actually did have a good week fitness-wise. I'm joining Kim @ Kimrunsonthefly and Deborah @ Confessionsofamotherrunner sharing a week where I felt I had a nice balance of rest and activity -- despite the holiday and the movie eating up two days … Continue reading A Balanced Week: 11/21 – 27 WRD

Winter Arrives: 11/14 – 20 WRD

November 20, 2022 ~ Chocolaterunsjudy ~ 30 Comments

I should have titled this "spinning my wheels), because it felt like a busy week, but there were many things I didn't get done. I (personally) find it really hard to be as productive in the shorter days. I'm joining Kim @ Kimrunsonthefly and Deborah @ Confessionsofamotherrunner and enjoying less mileage. Workouts update Monday: Yoga (20 … Continue reading Winter Arrives: 11/14 – 20 WRD
