Training Week 2: Best Damn Race Savannah Half The week went sideways on me (read more about that in favorites, although it wasn't a good thing) and I didn't get as much activity in as I wanted -- but I got my runs in and the bonus is my legs are feeling pretty good again. … Continue reading Running & Watering: 12/10 -16 Weekly Wrap

Back in the Groove: 12/3 -9 Weekly Wrap
Training Week 1: Best Damn Race Savannah Half Let's just say it wasn't an auspicious start to my training for my next half: I finally felt like I got back into the groove. The taping was helping my hamstrings tremendously, my paces were normal, I had a great run Friday and Saturday last week, and … Continue reading Back in the Groove: 12/3 -9 Weekly Wrap
Don’t Patronize me!: 11/26 -12/2 Weekly Wrap
On my Friday on my long run, this guy passed me, calling out passing on the left. No biggie, right? Only he also said older, slower runner passing. Well, you're passing me, so obviously you're not running slower than me. I get it, he said he was 69 (no idea why he felt he needed … Continue reading Don’t Patronize me!: 11/26 -12/2 Weekly Wrap
Sometimes change is good . . . : 11/19- 25 Weekly Wrap
. . . and sometimes it doesn't feel so great This Thanksgiving was bittersweet, in more ways than one. Bitterly cold, for example, which had me running on the treadmill instead of in a Turkey Trot. I've run in weather that cold, but it was just not calling to me this year. Also bittersweet because … Continue reading Sometimes change is good . . . : 11/19- 25 Weekly Wrap
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
Short & sweet race week: 11/5- 11 Weekly Wrap
Slowly easing back into activity and my last "long" run/race for a bit. I'm joining up with the Weekly Wrap from Holly @ Hohoruns and Wendy @ Taking the Long Way Home to share running and racing this week -- I had my eye on a couple of 5ks in the next couple of weeks but now I'm … Continue reading Short & sweet race week: 11/5- 11 Weekly Wrap
Life after Goal Races: 10/29- 11/4 Weekly Wrap
You'll probably notice I was a bit of a slug this week. And I'm okay with that. Kind of wished I'd done a little yoga but I didn't and that's just the way it is. I'm joining up with the Weekly Wrap from Holly @ Hohoruns and Wendy @ Taking the Long Way Home to share life after … Continue reading Life after Goal Races: 10/29- 11/4 Weekly Wrap
State Number . . . : 10/22- 28 Weekly Wrap
. . . Well no, MA is a repeat state for me, so just two new states added this year (ID & NJ). However, Mr. Judy (more so than me!) and I have spent many happy hours on the Cape, as his parents retired to there (but then moved away about the time we moved … Continue reading State Number . . . : 10/22- 28 Weekly Wrap
Last Half Training for 2018: 10/15- 21 Weekly Wrap
Thankfully no snow here yet but the temps are cold enough for it overnight! Too soon, Mother Nature, far too soon. I'm joining up with the Weekly Wrap from Holly @ Hohoruns and Wendy @ Taking the Long Way Home to share my last week of hard training for the Cape Cod half as I move into tapertown. … Continue reading Last Half Training for 2018: 10/15- 21 Weekly Wrap
Weather Whiplash, Again!: 10/8- 14 Weekly Wrap
Fall arrived in a big way this week, but not before Summer battled for it and almost finished me off. Seriously, a couple of days with highs in the low 80s, a super humid run, then temps plummeting to the point where you're trying to figure out how to dress for running outside. I'm joining … Continue reading Weather Whiplash, Again!: 10/8- 14 Weekly Wrap
