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
Weekly Run Down
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
Stick a fork in July; it’s done!: 7/25 – 31 WRD
I had already decided to take a week off running this week -- good thing, too, because I can't even begin to tell you how exhausted I was when I got back from my moms mid week. It's always tiring, but throw in that extreme heat -- wowza! I sincerely hope that I don't have … Continue reading Stick a fork in July; it’s done!: 7/25 – 31 WRD
Just Play It Cool, Boy!: 7/18 – 24 WRD
Can you name that movie? I was a little disappointed that the recent remake was very similar to the original movie. It was good, but why make it if you're not adding something original? It did add a little, but truly mostly it seemed very similar -- to me, anyway. I hope that you've been … Continue reading Just Play It Cool, Boy!: 7/18 – 24 WRD
Going with the Flow: 7/11 – 17 WRD
A busy week even though I really tried to get in two rest days -- the second one was a bit too busy to really qualify as rest, though. Especially when my sister texted to tell me the aide is having more medical work done and I'll be going down at the end of the … Continue reading Going with the Flow: 7/11 – 17 WRD
The highs and lows of running: 7/4 – 10 WRD
Highs and lows is a bit of a wordplay on my runs this week, playing with heart rate -- which has been high and low on the run, indeed. Four runs baby! I finally made it to the elusive 15 miles per week, too, LOL! Next week will be a cut back week, I think, … Continue reading The highs and lows of running: 7/4 – 10 WRD
Explorer: 6/27 – 7/3 WRD
A week at home felt good. Tomorrow I will spend the holiday with my mom, but just the day and will have Mr. Judy on hand to help with the driving. It was a good week for a little local exploring! It all started in this backyard 6 years ago In other news it's Bandit's … Continue reading Explorer: 6/27 – 7/3 WRD
No Place like Home: 6/20 – 26 WRD
After about 3 days at my moms, not gonna lie: I was dragging this week. Everyone needs a little downtime sometimes. So far this Summer has been much less wet than last Summer (I know, it's early days!) and I've really enjoyed my reading outside in the backyard -- and being able to film in … Continue reading No Place like Home: 6/20 – 26 WRD
The Need for Speed: 6/13 – 19 WRD
Another busy week, but some fun things in there. A movie -- I think you might be able to guess which one if you like movies, although it's a nod to the original; a race, and pierogis! I'm joining Kim @ Kimrunsonthefly and Deborah @ Confessionsofamotherrunner, and giving thanks for unseasonably cool weather on race … Continue reading The Need for Speed: 6/13 – 19 WRD
WTF, Garmin?: 6/6 – 12 WRD
Most of the time my Garmin behaves itself, but every once in a while it really does something funky. My long run this week had a Garmin incident. I'm joining Kim @ Kimrunsonthefly and Deborah @ Confessionsofamotherrunner, and still enjoying mostly great weather this week. Workouts update Monday: Yoga (40 min), AM Walk, Lots of walking … Continue reading WTF, Garmin?: 6/6 – 12 WRD
