I was totally unmotivated to do any form of exercise in the beginning of the week. Not even my beloved yoga. I also had the slight problem that I wanted to eat everything in sight, preferably sweets, but I could do a good job chowing down on the mixed nuts I'd bought while we were … Continue reading Post race slump: 5/16-22 Weekly Wrap

Race week!: 5/9-15 Weekly Wrap
This week did not start out well. Too much to do, too little time, and a shattered phone. But did it end well? I guess you'll have to read on. I'm wrapping up my race week with the Weekly Wrap from Holly @ Hohoruns and Tricia @ Misssipppiddlin. You don't have to be a runner to participate in … Continue reading Race week!: 5/9-15 Weekly Wrap
This Time it was User Error: 5/2-8 Weekly Wrap
This week went a lot better than last week. Sort of. A few annoyances -- like the never ending rain (or so it seemed), the on & off achiness of my ankle, some screw ups with my Garmin. All in all, though, a solid week. I'm wrapping up my week with the Weekly Wrap from … Continue reading This Time it was User Error: 5/2-8 Weekly Wrap
Too Much Brotherly Love?: 4/25-5/1 Weekly Wrap
Damn, I was looking forward to this week. It was supposed to be my highest mileage of this training cycle, my longest run, the second time in months I managed 4 runs in one week, which meant the majority of those runs would be shorter, easy runs. Instead, shortly after I posted last week's wrap … Continue reading Too Much Brotherly Love?: 4/25-5/1 Weekly Wrap
Delmar Dash Race Recap 4/3/16
This is never what you want to wake up to on race day -- in April! Delmar is about a 20 minute drive south for me, and the roads were a snowy, slushy mess. Miraculously, down in Delmar all the snow/ice had already melted off the road. Packet Pickup Packet Pickup is in the gym … Continue reading Delmar Dash Race Recap 4/3/16
Houston, We Have a Problem: 4/18-24 Weekly Wrap
The title refers to several gear/fuel problems this week. While my ankle felt almost normal all week -- including today, after my 10 mile long run -- I think the real story this week was the lovely weather. Running in tanks and skirts -- I've missed you! I just feel so free when I'm not … Continue reading Houston, We Have a Problem: 4/18-24 Weekly Wrap
We were trumped: 4/11-17 Weekly Wrap
We celebrated my Dad's birthday again last weekend with a lunch at the Culinary Institute of America for all the grandkids, siblings, my cousin and her husband who live not too far away, and of course, my parents last weekend. So I was on a bit of social media diet this past weekend. Did ya … Continue reading We were trumped: 4/11-17 Weekly Wrap

Join us at the Weekly Wrap from Holly @ Hohoruns and Tricia @ Misssipppiddlin. You don't have to be a runner -- just healthy minded people supporting … Continue reading A Tale of 2 Runs: 4/4-10 Weekly Wrap
A Day in the Life 3/30/16
I mentioned last Wednesday that I totally forgot about wanting to try a WIAW post (epic food photo failage, and yes, I just made up that word), so instead, I decided to record everything I did all day so you could get a peek into my life. I think you deserve brownie points for reading … Continue reading A Day in the Life 3/30/16
I want to soar like an eagle: 3/28-4/3 Weekly Wrap
After the Delmar Dash today, Darlene, Barbara and I ran 5 more miles on the rail trial. Well, Barbara only wanted to go a couple but she just kept going and going . . . and then they saw eagles. Without them, I would never have seen them. So cool. I didn't even attempt photos … Continue reading I want to soar like an eagle: 3/28-4/3 Weekly Wrap
