I mean seriously I should know better. So I got on the treadmill Monday, and while the left foot felt reasonable, I'd tried out some new walking shoes the day before. I'd loosened the laces but I guess they were still too tight. I knew it was hurting to run (and doing a little speedwork) … Continue reading Why are Runners Stupid?: 1/15 – 21 WRD

A Rundown Rundown: 1/1 – 14 WRD
Thankfully I'm feeling okay (well, except for the foot -- which is on and off) -- but sleep has been meh for a while. So it was a scaled back week, but there was a nice mixture of fitness all the same and I'm okay with it. I'd rather rest more than get sick by … Continue reading A Rundown Rundown: 1/1 – 14 WRD
Forget Cool Runnings . . .: 1/1 – 7 WRD
. . . chilly running was the name of the game this week! It wasn't too bad though. I got in my runs, but struggled with getting in some strength training (again). At least all three runs this week were outside! Especially as it's supposed to snow all day today. I'm joining Kim @ Kimrunsonthefly … Continue reading Forget Cool Runnings . . .: 1/1 – 7 WRD
Ready for the New!: 12/25 – 31 WRD
Let's just say all sorts of plans got screwed up in the last couple of weeks, the end result being that we are going to visit my mom today -- and that means only two runs this week. Not at all the plan but it is what it is. On the brighter side, Albie the … Continue reading Ready for the New!: 12/25 – 31 WRD
Where did THAT come from?: Runfessions December 2023
In November if was wrist pain and a very stiff neck for a long time -- both of those pains resolved. But the niggles never seem to end, do they? Although some days this one is more than a niggle. I runfess . . .It seems I've finally fallen prey to Plantar Fasciitis. I think. … Continue reading Where did THAT come from?: Runfessions December 2023
May you feel peaceful: 12/18 – 24 WRD
This week started out great. I've been feeling and recovering better than I have been in weeks. I went to bed Tuesday night feeling fine, and woke up a few hours later feeling not fine at all -- luckily, that only seemed to last a day. Very weird! I'm joining Kim @ Kimrunsonthefly and Deborah … Continue reading May you feel peaceful: 12/18 – 24 WRD
The Truth is Out There: 12/5 – 17 WRD
My mom got a nice surprise yesterday when Mr. Judy and Bandit came with me to visit for the first time in almost 6 months. Her apartment was still like a sauna, but Bandit's pupsicle kept him occupied once we got him going. I'm joining Kim @ Kimrunsonthefly and Deborah @ Confessionsofamotherrunner and coasting towards … Continue reading The Truth is Out There: 12/5 – 17 WRD
Where to Stretch: Runfessions November 2023
I know it's been a minute, and I'm just maintaining a very small base, but we've always got something to runfess, #amiright? I runfess . . .I realized I'd been really slacking on my post run stretches, so I've gotten back after it. It really doesn't have to take long at all, but that little … Continue reading Where to Stretch: Runfessions November 2023
The Report is in: 10/23 – 29 WRD
Did my vet call this week? Absolutely not. I called on Monday. I called on Tuesday -- when I finally got to speak to a human, I asked to speak with the Hospital Manager. She was in surgery, but the receptionist (whom I've talked to a few times by now) grabbed a different vet and … Continue reading The Report is in: 10/23 – 29 WRD
Fall is slowly arriving: 10/9 – 15 WRD
It was a another week, LOL! Actually a much better week (if we don't talk about current events, and I don't plan to), but it was busy and full on juggling mode again. Another week low on running, but more than last week. I ended both Thursday and Friday with an incredibly low body battery … Continue reading Fall is slowly arriving: 10/9 – 15 WRD
