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

Slowing Expanding: 1/10 – 16 WRD
I am determined to respect my body and give it the rest it wants -- while trying to move gently, too. I seemed to find a good balance this week. What I didn't find? Myself, outside, as much as usual. The ice stuck around for days because of the the mostly cold temps -- I … Continue reading Slowing Expanding: 1/10 – 16 WRD

Although he's been gone since I was a teenager, I always think of him on the Fourth. I'm joining Kim @ Kimrunsonthefly and Deborah @ Confessionsofamotherrunner, and … Continue reading Happy Birthday, Grandpa Sam!: 6/28 – 7/4 WRD
Finally Coming Clean: Runfessions December 2020
I come clean about something that's been bothering me a long time. Then there's tech issues (because when isn't there?). Then finally there's some animal shenanigans -- because isn't there always when you live with furkids? I runfess . . .I'll open with a whopper: my achilles tendon started acting up about mid Summer. It … Continue reading Finally Coming Clean: Runfessions December 2020
