Yes, there is some running to report this week! Nothing wild, just a few short runs. Still lots of Yoga and walking. Less walking, though, because . . . running. My running miles basically replaced my extra walking miles from the previous week. Joining Kim @ Kimrunsonthefly and Deborah @ Confessionsofamotherrunner, and reporting on easing … Continue reading Mr. Judy to the Rescue: 10/12 – 18 WRD

The People Have the Power: September 2020
September was even busier than the last few months! 2 trips to mom, both with side trips. One day trip as a "family" -- I'd hoped for more, but it wasn't meant to be. Cat sitting for a friend. Planning & executing birthday shenanigans for Mr. Judy. A virtual 10k + virtual 5k walk. September's … Continue reading The People Have the Power: September 2020
Leaves are a’popping: 9/21 – 26 WRD
After our cold snap last week, trees are popping out in color all over the place. Way too early, but there's something about the changing leaves . . . even if I never missed that the 17 years we lived in TX! Joining Kim @ Kimrunsonthefly and Deborah @ Confessionsofamotherrunner, and running/walking my virtual Dempsey … Continue reading Leaves are a’popping: 9/21 – 26 WRD
Zooming into the New Year: 9/14 – 20 WRD
Another busy week with an unplanned visit to my mom -- nothing new there, I just hadn't been planning on visiting this week. Mainly because I was deep into prep for Mr. Judy's 60th birthday. It worked out well, though, because we had a family Zoom call on Friday (for Rosh Hashanah, the Jewish New … Continue reading Zooming into the New Year: 9/14 – 20 WRD
Close Encounters . . .: 9/7 – 13 WRD
. . . The Cat Edition It was a busy week with going back and forth to a friend's house for four days to take care of her cats. Just in the mornings! She told me I was unlikely to see either of the cats -- will she or won't she? That's in the favorites! … Continue reading Close Encounters . . .: 9/7 – 13 WRD
Tackling all the Hills: 8/31 – 9/6 WRD
I'm not gonna lie: I am ready for some flat road! Only problem is my neighborhood (and the surrounding area) has very little flat. The places I visited this week had very little flat, too. These legs got a workout this week, which is good, because I didn't manage to squeeze in much strength training. … Continue reading Tackling all the Hills: 8/31 – 9/6 WRD
I Come Back Even Stronger: August 2020
August was relatively busy in a good way. 2 trips to mom, one with a side trip. More day trips. Slight increase in running. Slight increase in walking, too. Made an effort to get in more steps. I collected my mug from June's virtual xc runs (with a side trip on that trip too). August's … Continue reading I Come Back Even Stronger: August 2020
Heading into Fall: 8/24 – 30 WRD
Fall seems to be moving in. I'm mostly okay with that. A little wistful, of course, I'll miss my skirts and the long days. In fact, as I was folding up and putting away a few of my Summer skirts today, I couldn't help but wonder if that will be the last time I wear … Continue reading Heading into Fall: 8/24 – 30 WRD
Thank You, Mother Nature!: 8/17 – 23 WRD
I know a lot of people suffered with Mother Nature's actions last week, and if you were caught in the Derecho or in the wildfires, know you are still in my thoughts. We were treated to a dose of cool, almost Fall like days until the weekend. It was a much needed break from the … Continue reading Thank You, Mother Nature!: 8/17 – 23 WRD
Roatripping: 8/10 – 16 WRD
Some people are effected more by heat than others. I remember once, in TX, we'd been out to a memorial service. It was hot and humid. As we sat in the car afterwards, trying to decide what to do, the sweat was rolling down my face. But not Mr. Judy's. I'd rather run outside than … Continue reading Roatripping: 8/10 – 16 WRD
