Karma vs Dharma

April 10, 2020April 10, 2020 ~ Chocolaterunsjudy ~ 26 Comments

Karma: What you are here to learn Karma isn't necessarily about past lives, although for those who believe -- I'm not sure if I do or not -- it can be. We're all here for a reason, which is actually more about Dharma than Karma -- we'll get to that in a bit. You can … Continue reading Karma vs Dharma

3 Must Haves for a Bad Weather Run

April 7, 2020April 6, 2020 ~ Chocolaterunsjudy ~ 32 Comments

I have been known to avoid running in the cold wind or cold rain or cold, windy rain with the best of them. Retreating to my treadmill when the weather isn't great. I can run in bad weather, though, and have many times. Right now you may have no choice about running outside in bad … Continue reading 3 Must Haves for a Bad Weather Run

Trying Something New: 3/30-4/5 WRD

April 5, 2020April 6, 2020 ~ Chocolaterunsjudy ~ 31 Comments

Of course. Cause if you get to know me, you know I'm almost always trying something new. I crave variety in most things in life. Joining Kim @ Kimrunsonthefly and Deborah @ Confessionsofamotherrunner, and sharing still more doggy cuteness, because why not? Workouts update Monday:  Dogwalk, SB 15 min, PB Cardio Toning (25 min), Yoga (30 … Continue reading Trying Something New: 3/30-4/5 WRD

Silver linings: Tea/coffee Date April 2020

April 3, 2020April 2, 2020 ~ Chocolaterunsjudy ~ 29 Comments

Mr. Judy and the dogs are once again front and center if we were getting together over a hot beverage. Aren't they always? Pull up a chair and mug with Coco and Deborah and me for the ultimate coffee tea date: can we talk? Especially about the damn menopot! If we were enjoying tea/coffee . . . I would … Continue reading Silver linings: Tea/coffee Date April 2020

Stronger than the Fear: March 2020

March 31, 2020March 30, 2020 ~ Chocolaterunsjudy ~ 28 Comments

March was a doozy, wasn't it? It didn't start out well for me, not feeling well. I get a non specific virus like this often in Spring (relatively sure it wasn't COVID19 but we'll never know). I rest, I get better, then out of the blue I feel a little worse, and back and forth … Continue reading Stronger than the Fear: March 2020

Business as usual: 3/23-29 WRD

March 29, 2020March 29, 2020 ~ Chocolaterunsjudy ~ 44 Comments

Sort of. Ok, obviously it's not completely normal, but in general things are going along okay so far here. I hope that it is with you guys, too. We adjust and we just pray and have to have faith that we will get through this. Joining Kim @ Kimrunsonthefly and Deborah @ Confessionsofamotherrunner, and sharing … Continue reading Business as usual: 3/23-29 WRD

Running Down a New Normal: Runfessions March 2020

March 27, 2020March 26, 2020 ~ Chocolaterunsjudy ~ 29 Comments

March most definitely did not go out like a lamb. As you can tell, I try to work on my Runfessions throughout the month, and I'd written most of this post before all the craziness really started. It's a great time to focus on the things that are good in our life, and these linkups … Continue reading Running Down a New Normal: Runfessions March 2020

So You Can Only Work Out at Home

March 24, 2020March 23, 2020 ~ Chocolaterunsjudy ~ 30 Comments

I know so many of you rely heavily on gyms. It may be the social aspect, it may be the competition, it may be the equipment, it may simply be the variety. Most of us can't go to the gym right now. I have belonged to gyms on and off, but hadn't been a member … Continue reading So You Can Only Work Out at Home

Life hasn’t changed too much: 3/16-22 WRD

March 22, 2020 ~ Chocolaterunsjudy ~ 46 Comments

Yet. After a lot of back and forth (I'd feel perfectly fine, then not great -- never terrible, by any means), I do believe I turned the corner -- finally! this week, and feel 100%. Or maybe 95%? My life hasn't changed that much. Not yet, anyway. Of course there are changes, but in general, … Continue reading Life hasn’t changed too much: 3/16-22 WRD

We are lucky

March 20, 2020March 19, 2020 ~ Chocolaterunsjudy ~ 27 Comments

You probably don't feel so lucky right now -- or maybe you do. I must say, now is a great time to be an introvert. Who knew it's the introverts who can more easily weather a pandemic? We like to be at home. We like to be with just a small tribe. Sometimes we really … Continue reading We are lucky
