Hitchikers: Tea/coffee Date September 2022
I'm joining Coco and Deborah and sharing random odd encounters lately. If we were enjoying tea/coffee . . .I'd tell you about the woman with the walking shorts. As in she walked in the same shorts every single time I saw her for days. Does she own multiple pairs? It just seemed odd. Eventually I did see … Continue reading Hitchikers: Tea/coffee Date September 2022
Hitting the Trails: Runfessions August 2022
Sometimes that's literally hitting the trails, as in falling onto them. Thankfully the falls are not often. My worst fall ever was on pavement. Not as pretty as the last cloud photo I took in this spot but still nice I runfess . . .I am really loving all the shade on the trails I've … Continue reading Hitting the Trails: Runfessions August 2022

I'm joining Coco and Deborah and sharing more wildlife as seen on the run, as well as stuff heard on the run lately. And another lost keys story!

Smile and maybe tomorrow . . .: Runfessions July 2022
. . . You'll see the sun come shining through for you I just love that song (Charlie Chaplin if you didn't know) I runfess . . .I invested in a couple of pairs of new running shoes during Prime Days.

It’s a Wild Life, Baby!: Tea/coffee Date July 2022
I'm joining Coco and Deborah and sharing a lot about the wildlife in our area recently. If we were enjoying tea/coffee . . .I'd tell you about the Merlin App. It's so cool!

Multitasking doesn’t pay off: Runfessions June 2022
I runfess . . .As tempting as it is to leave the foam rolling until after practicing Yoga in the morning, I have learned my lesson and know that I have to do it before -- or it just won't get done. I runfess . . .I mentioned last week that my Garmin has been … Continue reading Multitasking doesn’t pay off: Runfessions June 2022
Will this be “the one”: Tea/coffee Date June 2022
I'm joining Coco and Deborah with some of the things I meant to tell you in May, but then I veered course and shared my race photos. There's a few new things, too -- and an explanation for the stress I alluded to in last week's weekly run down. If we were enjoying tea/coffee . . .I'd … Continue reading Will this be “the one”: Tea/coffee Date June 2022
Peloton & Treadmills: Runfessions May 2022
I runfess . . .I originally was thinking about another 5k in in May. Then it got suddenly hot (and the day the race was run would potentially have thunderstorms as a cold front was supposed to come through). Then COVID started surging again, and I decided it just wasn't a race I wanted to … Continue reading Peloton & Treadmills: Runfessions May 2022
My Race Story in Photos: Tea/coffee Date May 2022
I'm joining Coco and Deborah and sharing a little differently this month: mostly in photos. When I saw my (free) race photos (read the real recap here), I saw that they actually tell a story! Notice my cockeye'd bib? My race belt has bungees for the bib. The first one went on fine. The second one tore … Continue reading My Race Story in Photos: Tea/coffee Date May 2022
