There seemed to be deer everywhere I looked this week: in my neighborhood, where I ran, and where I stopped on the way to visit my mom -- deer sightings three days in a row. Despite all the sightings, the only photo I took was not even worth sharing. Y'all know what deer look like. … Continue reading Oh Deer!: 8/8 – 14 WRD

Chipping Away at To-dos: 8/1 – 7 WRD
Except for the heatwave a relatively quiet week. My to-do lists were quite long, but my motivation wasn't strong -- I blame the heat! Good thing I prioritize the three most important things. They usually get done. I chip away at the rest. I'm joining Kim @ Kimrunsonthefly and Deborah @ Confessionsofamotherrunner, and easing back … Continue reading Chipping Away at To-dos: 8/1 – 7 WRD
Peloton & Treadmills: Runfessions May 2022
I runfess . . .I originally was thinking about another 5k in in May. Then it got suddenly hot (and the day the race was run would potentially have thunderstorms as a cold front was supposed to come through). Then COVID started surging again, and I decided it just wasn't a race I wanted to … Continue reading Peloton & Treadmills: Runfessions May 2022
More Weather Whiplash: 5/16 – 22 WRD
It was a busy week of errands, visiting mom, and working on projects. A cold front last weekend blew out all the hot air, only to have it come back with a vengeance by week's end. I'm joining Kim @ Kimrunsonthefly and Deborah @ Confessionsofamotherrunner, and going longer again but keeping the "easy" runs short … Continue reading More Weather Whiplash: 5/16 – 22 WRD
Happy Full Moon: 5/9 – 15 WRD
It's Friday as I sit down to write this post. Usually I try to write a bit as the week goes along, but it was a busy week. As usual it's hard to remember what I did yesterday, let alone a few days ago! I'm joining Kim @ Kimrunsonthefly and Deborah @ Confessionsofamotherrunner, and maintaining … Continue reading Happy Full Moon: 5/9 – 15 WRD
Enough with Savannah!: Runfessions February 2022
I slowly and cautiously started to rebuild my mileage in February. Definitely nothing crazy; there's no rush. I think I'll be ending February with 10 or so more miles than January, which isn't horrible considering February is a short month. Yet there's always runfessions to be shared. I runfess . . .Not too long ago … Continue reading Enough with Savannah!: Runfessions February 2022
Top 6 List of 2021
I haven't raced in a long time, and for a variety of reasons, my mileage was pretty low in 2021. So could I find six things to love about running in 2021? Shorter runs I know there are runners that love that long run, and I'm not saying that I hate it, but it's so … Continue reading Top 6 List of 2021
Ice, Ice, Baby: 1/31 – 2/5 WRD
Or maybe let it ice, because that's sure what it did Thursday night and most of Friday. I'm joining Kim @ Kimrunsonthefly and Deborah @ Confessionsofamotherrunner, and running into February. Workouts update Monday: Yoga (40 min), PB ST (20 min), DogwalkTuesday: Yoga AM (30 min), 3 miles easy + sorta hill repeats x 3, Dogwalk, Yoga … Continue reading Ice, Ice, Baby: 1/31 – 2/5 WRD
Outside 2; TM 1: 1/14 – 30 WRD
It's been a frustrating week for the Yoga practice. I often do online videos (I'm a member of a couple of online studios), but the Internet was acting up and for several days and I couldn't get through the practices -- it was super annoying, the opposite of what Yoga should be. Sometimes it would … Continue reading Outside 2; TM 1: 1/14 – 30 WRD
What I like About My Treadmill: Runfessions January 2022
I am running even less in January (my first point below), but I'm always able to come up with some runfessions. Especially when they're bolstered by hiking gaffes and senior moments. The treadmill does figure prominently this month, but so do those ever present senior moments! I runfess . . .My running was off to … Continue reading What I like About My Treadmill: Runfessions January 2022
