April continued to be a challenging month. It would really help to have Spring-like weather, but it's not unusual for us to miss out on Spring and unfortunately this was another year that that's true. The flowers are blooming, the trees are slowly beginning to leaf out, the lawns are greening up, every once in … Continue reading Then a hero comes along: April 2020
Running
Running on sunshine: 4/20 – 26 WRD
I'd like to say snow is in our tailview mirror, but not this week. At least there was no accumulation. But there was snow, rain, sleet, and hail oh my! In between all that there was also sunshine, and some days that were breezy instead of super windy. A little sunshine goes a long way! … Continue reading Running on sunshine: 4/20 – 26 WRD
Let’s Return to Spring; Please?: 4/13 – 19 WRD
More snow, but nothing really to write home about. Wind and cold though! Definitely having some shorts/bathing suit photo envy. I'd settle for putting away my Winter clothes, I stare at my closet and I just don't even want to put them on again! Joining Kim @ Kimrunsonthefly and Deborah @ Confessionsofamotherrunner, and apologizing for … Continue reading Let’s Return to Spring; Please?: 4/13 – 19 WRD
Springing into . . . Snow?: 4/6 – 12 WRD
Yes indeed, we got just a tiny bit of the white stuff yesterday -- nothing sticking, just a brief snow shower. Thankfully I chose to run today, a much nicer day. Yesterday the wind was insane. Today it was just windy. Joining Kim @ Kimrunsonthefly and Deborah @ Confessionsofamotherrunner, and sharing still more doggy cuteness … Continue reading Springing into . . . Snow?: 4/6 – 12 WRD
3 Must Haves for a Bad Weather Run
I have been known to avoid running in the cold wind or cold rain or cold, windy rain with the best of them. Retreating to my treadmill when the weather isn't great. I can run in bad weather, though, and have many times. Right now you may have no choice about running outside in bad … Continue reading 3 Must Haves for a Bad Weather Run
Trying Something New: 3/30-4/5 WRD
Of course. Cause if you get to know me, you know I'm almost always trying something new. I crave variety in most things in life. Joining Kim @ Kimrunsonthefly and Deborah @ Confessionsofamotherrunner, and sharing still more doggy cuteness, because why not? Workouts update Monday: Dogwalk, SB 15 min, PB Cardio Toning (25 min), Yoga (30 … Continue reading Trying Something New: 3/30-4/5 WRD
Stronger than the Fear: March 2020
March was a doozy, wasn't it? It didn't start out well for me, not feeling well. I get a non specific virus like this often in Spring (relatively sure it wasn't COVID19 but we'll never know). I rest, I get better, then out of the blue I feel a little worse, and back and forth … Continue reading Stronger than the Fear: March 2020
Business as usual: 3/23-29 WRD
Sort of. Ok, obviously it's not completely normal, but in general things are going along okay so far here. I hope that it is with you guys, too. We adjust and we just pray and have to have faith that we will get through this. Joining Kim @ Kimrunsonthefly and Deborah @ Confessionsofamotherrunner, and sharing … Continue reading Business as usual: 3/23-29 WRD
Running Down a New Normal: Runfessions March 2020
March most definitely did not go out like a lamb. As you can tell, I try to work on my Runfessions throughout the month, and I'd written most of this post before all the craziness really started. It's a great time to focus on the things that are good in our life, and these linkups … Continue reading Running Down a New Normal: Runfessions March 2020
So You Can Only Work Out at Home
I know so many of you rely heavily on gyms. It may be the social aspect, it may be the competition, it may be the equipment, it may simply be the variety. Most of us can't go to the gym right now. I have belonged to gyms on and off, but hadn't been a member … Continue reading So You Can Only Work Out at Home
