Last night (yup, night) was probably my last race for 2019. There was a 5k I considered for next weekend, but the weather right now doesn't look great -- of course that can always change. This week was still a bit light in strength training, but I suppose I made up for that with all … Continue reading Wrapping up Racing: 12/2-8 WRD
Weekly Run Down
It’s bad when they name the storm: 11/25-12/1 WRD
Thanksgiving was spent with my parents, my sister and her kids, plus one of the couples my parents eat with on a regular basis. It wasn't horrible and it wasn't great, and I have a strong feeling it might be my Dad's last Thanksgiving, but only time will tell. Not a whole lot of activity … Continue reading It’s bad when they name the storm: 11/25-12/1 WRD
All the leaves are brown: 11/18-24 WRD
Another week at home, although I had a false alarm midweek. Physically my Dad is regaining some strength, but mentally not so much and it's only going to continue going downhill. Even with an aide, it's very hard on my Mom. On everyone, really. Joining Kim @ Kimrunsonthefly and Deborah @ Confessionsofamotherrunner and sharing how … Continue reading All the leaves are brown: 11/18-24 WRD
Baby it’s cold out there: 11/11-17 WRD
A week at home (although I'm probably at my parents or on my way home as you read this -- just a visit) felt glorious. In fact, by Tuesday I felt extremely run down so I took a real rest day -- stayed in my pjs all day. Binged watched a few shows (mostly because … Continue reading Baby it’s cold out there: 11/11-17 WRD
Third time’s the Charm: 11/4-10 WRD
At my mom's much of this week again. Dad is home. Big, big adjustment. Third time refers to the fact that his release kept getting pushed to a different date, due to medical issues, but in the end I brought him home on Thursday. Although there was time to get a third run in this … Continue reading Third time’s the Charm: 11/4-10 WRD
A Spooky Good Time: 10/28-11/3 WRD
Much of this week was spent at my mom's again. Both the staff and the residents got into the spirit of Halloween. So did Mother Nature with some nasty storms and power outages! Joining Kim @ Kimrunsonthefly and Deborah @ Confessionsofamotherrunner and sharing how I'm prepping for that 15k next week I'm not even signed … Continue reading A Spooky Good Time: 10/28-11/3 WRD
Still on the racing circuit: 10/21-27 WRD
I do love me some races in the Fall. This week's was a 5k. One billed as flat and fast for PRs -- yeah, right! The hills weren't bad, but they were there. I'm getting ahead of myself though. Joining Kim @ Kimrunsonthefly and Deborah @ Confessionsofamotherrunner and sharing how I'm tackling all the hills … Continue reading Still on the racing circuit: 10/21-27 WRD
Happy 34 to Us: 10/14-20 WRD
I don't post a lot to my personal FB page -- although I'm always saying I should do it more because I do love looking at those memories -- but this weekend the weather Gods aligned to give us the perfect day on our anniversary (our actual wedding day, not so much). We made the … Continue reading Happy 34 to Us: 10/14-20 WRD
1 runner, 1 deer, 1 turkey: 10/7-13 WRD
Saw a deer on the way to my moms, which is not at all unusual in around here. I saw a huge turkey running across the road on the way to my Dad. Then I actually saw a runner running while I was at my moms -- which was a first. Joining Kim @ Kimrunsonthefly … Continue reading 1 runner, 1 deer, 1 turkey: 10/7-13 WRD
Hello October & Fall: 9/30-10/6 WRD
Dad is back in rehab. Seems to be better, but I let my sister take my mom there yesterday. I'll be back down for Yom Kippur this week. There was still a lot of walking this week, but little running, although I ran 9 miles for the first time in a long, long time. Perhaps … Continue reading Hello October & Fall: 9/30-10/6 WRD
