With the exception of Monday, it was nice running this week, even if it was all over the place. Weather whiplash indeed, from running in a skirt & tee one day to tights and a jacket a couple of days later. I'm joining up with the Weekly Wrap from Holly @ Hohoruns and Tricia @ Misssipppiddlin to get … Continue reading Turkey Talk: 10/30-11/5 Weekly Wrap

October 2017: Did I pass?
Did I pass in October? I suppose any month that starts off with a half marathon PR (read about Wineglass here) can't be a bad month. With the half "monkey" off my back, though, there have been a wee bit of slacking going on. You decide. Getting in scheduled runs While there are still runs … Continue reading October 2017: Did I pass?
No trail race but a hike!: 10/23-29 Weekly Wrap
It's Fall, y'all. We are just a little bit past peak here in our neck of the woods, but this post will be a bit more photo heavy since it's just so pretty out there (when it isn't raining, like today). I traded in an easy run for a hike this week. I continued to … Continue reading No trail race but a hike!: 10/23-29 Weekly Wrap

It’s the Great Pumpkin!: 10/9-15 Weekly Wrap
There hasn't been a lot of short distance racing this year, but I tried a new-to-me 10 k this weekend. I'm usually traveling this time of year since it's right around our anniversary, but this year we front loaded most of our travel in the first half of the year. Except for a teeny escape … Continue reading It’s the Great Pumpkin!: 10/9-15 Weekly Wrap
Wineglass Half Marathon Race Recap 10/01/17
I guess you could call 2017 the friendly half marathon year, as in I knew someone in every single half marathon I ran this year. And the number of friends running increased with every half! I do not foresee a repeat in 2018, though. Mr. Judy had been complaining for quite some time that we … Continue reading Wineglass Half Marathon Race Recap 10/01/17
Putting the R in Rest: 10/2-8 Weekly Wrap
It's another week short on activity, but man, I needed that! The last couple of weeks before my half were not the least bit restful and I was feeling extremely run down and just praying I could make it to the half healthy (actually, praying I would make it at all -- but that's a … Continue reading Putting the R in Rest: 10/2-8 Weekly Wrap
State #16, Half #18: 9/25-10/1 Weekly Wrap
It's somewhat short and sweet this week, because what promised to be a crazy week got even crazier midweek and I was feeling really run down (before that) so there wasn't really a whole lot of activity. Aside from a little half marathon. I'm joining up with the Weekly Wrap from Holly @ Hohoruns and Tricia @ … Continue reading State #16, Half #18: 9/25-10/1 Weekly Wrap
September 2017: Did I pass?
September was a good month for running with beautiful Fall weather -- right up until Summer decided to return just a few weeks before my Fall half marathon. One thing that wasn't good this training cycle? The speed work. For whatever reason, I was never able to hit my paces for speedwork. I can't lie; … Continue reading September 2017: Did I pass?
