Running went quite well this week. Paces are dropping a tad while HR is steady, all while pretty much running by feel. I got in a little more strength training, too. Snow flew, frigidly cold air moved in. Life, however, well, not so great. We have been pushing through getting my Dad into a nursing … Continue reading Still We Run: 12/16-22 WRD

Thawing out: 12/9-15 WRD
I thought we'd be going to my parents today, but we're going to try for tomorrow since my nephew (who lives in India -- yes, the country) will be visiting. So I didn't need to get that long run in on Friday, but then I didn't have to deal with the crazy wind today. I … Continue reading Thawing out: 12/9-15 WRD
Wrapping up Racing: 12/2-8 WRD
Last night (yup, night) was probably my last race for 2019. There was a 5k I considered for next weekend, but the weather right now doesn't look great -- of course that can always change. This week was still a bit light in strength training, but I suppose I made up for that with all … Continue reading Wrapping up Racing: 12/2-8 WRD
It’s bad when they name the storm: 11/25-12/1 WRD
Thanksgiving was spent with my parents, my sister and her kids, plus one of the couples my parents eat with on a regular basis. It wasn't horrible and it wasn't great, and I have a strong feeling it might be my Dad's last Thanksgiving, but only time will tell. Not a whole lot of activity … Continue reading It’s bad when they name the storm: 11/25-12/1 WRD
Bye bye racing; maybe?: 11/12- 18 Weekly Wrap
It seemed like all the races were canceled this weekend. At least the ones I was interested in, anyway. Some of the Sole Sisters got together to run, but frankly, I need all the time I can get before Thanksgiving so it's probably just as well those races were canceled. In case you missed it, … Continue reading Bye bye racing; maybe?: 11/12- 18 Weekly Wrap
Throwing out the Android: 1/15- 21 Weekly Wrap
Nothing super eventful about this week. Three of my four runs were actually outside -- despite getting dumped on with snow earlier in the week. I ran once with Darlene, who had MLK Day off, which hasn't happened in a while. And met up with the remnants of the Wineglass girls for a group run … Continue reading Throwing out the Android: 1/15- 21 Weekly Wrap
Devoloping Character: 1/30-2/5 Weekly Wrap
So last week I wrote about how we're not buried in many inches of snow. All you people who kept bemoaning our lack of snow -- can I please have it all directed at you? Cause it changed for us big time this week, with no end in sight. It's February, though, and it's pretty … Continue reading Devoloping Character: 1/30-2/5 Weekly Wrap
