I'm joining Coco and Deborah and sharing a laugh at my expense, as well as a few things we liked and didn't like about Asheville. Plus I runfess that I wrote this post a couple of weeks ago, and then completely forgot about it. It's been a week -- I'll explain in the Weekly Rundown Sunday (although … Continue reading Mostly Asheville edition: Tea/coffee Date June 2023

Boo Peloton: Runfessions May 2023
I explain my displeasure with Peloton's new pricing for their app in my last point. Suffice it to say if you want to avail yourself of cardio classes (and you don't already own Peloton equipment), your monthly fee will double: Based on Peloton’s data from its most recent financial quarter, more than half of all … Continue reading Boo Peloton: Runfessions May 2023
Dogs & Tech: Tea/coffee Date May 2023
I'm joining Coco and Deborah and actually have been drinking smoothies a bit more these days with the warmer weather (well, warmer weather when I originally wrote this pose -- although it's going to get warmer as this week goes on). My neighborhood continues to go to the dogs, and an upgrade gone well. If we were … Continue reading Dogs & Tech: Tea/coffee Date May 2023
Cycling not in a good way: Runfessions April 2023
I had to deal with a slight setback to running in April. I am not training for anything, but I just want to keep my running base. Is that really too much to ask? I runfess . . .I was thinking about running my first race of 2023 last weekend. It's a race I did … Continue reading Cycling not in a good way: Runfessions April 2023

The Running Gods Laugh: Runfessions March 2023
I sat down to write this post on Monday, and nothing was coming. I've got nothing, I thought. Running may be short & sweet (and slow) but it's going fairly well. Never tempt the Running Gods . . . but first can we talk car alarms? I runfess . . .I did something this week … Continue reading The Running Gods Laugh: Runfessions March 2023

Taking it Outsides (sometimes): Runfessions February 2023
In January, when I got back to running, it was mostly on the treadmill. Time was of the essence and the runs were short. I was fine with that. Moving into the February the runs are still short, but they're growing. Temps were mild (until this week) so I was running outside -- until yesterday's … Continue reading Taking it Outsides (sometimes): Runfessions February 2023
No more rose colored glasses: Tea/coffee Date February 2023
I'm joining Coco and Deborah and definitely enjoying a hot beverage on this very cold morning. As the subject alludes to, I sad on my rose colored sunglasses -- they've appeared in many photos -- and I'm so sad. I think I've had them for over a decade. Good thing it was cloudy most of the time … Continue reading No more rose colored glasses: Tea/coffee Date February 2023
Welcome 2023! Runfessions January 2023
2023 running is off to a rocky start. I thought I was doing everything I could to be off to a better start than last year, but it's actually worse. I know I don't sound like one, but I actually am an optimist. Each year I do have hope it will be better than the … Continue reading Welcome 2023! Runfessions January 2023
