Here we go again: 9/24-30 Weekly Wrap

September 30, 2018September 30, 2018 ~ Chocolaterunsjudy ~ 22 Comments

Here we go again: more humidity, more rain, and oh yeah, another half. I'm joining up with the Weekly Wrap from Holly @ Hohoruns and Wendy @ Taking the Long Way Home to conquer NJ (state #19???? -- I'm not quite sure, I really must update my races page one of these days). Turns out it's state 18 … Continue reading Here we go again: 9/24-30 Weekly Wrap

Taking a Bite Out of The Big Apple: 9/17-23 Weekly Wrap

September 23, 2018 ~ Chocolaterunsjudy ~ 48 Comments

It was a good training week, but man, was it busy and wacky and really not the best way to train! Fasting, travel, and some rough food choices, oh my! I'm joining up with the Weekly Wrap from Holly @ Hohoruns and Wendy @ Taking the Long Way Home to share balancing training for Ocean City Half -- … Continue reading Taking a Bite Out of The Big Apple: 9/17-23 Weekly Wrap

Happy New Year!: 9/10-16 Weekly Wrap

September 16, 2018 ~ Chocolaterunsjudy ~ 46 Comments

It was a much quieter week -- figuratively (as in more sleep, less drama) and literally (as in Lola stopped honking, although she's not completely back to normal). Maybe I should have called this "here we go again", because the heat, humidity, and rain came back -- then again, we are not battling a hurricane … Continue reading Happy New Year!: 9/10-16 Weekly Wrap

Let’s hear it for some coolness: 9/3-9 Weekly Wrap

September 9, 2018 ~ Chocolaterunsjudy ~ 32 Comments

I touched on Lola briefly in my Friday Five post (read about it here), but here's the long lowdown (if you're not interested in the furkids, feel free to skip on down): last Sunday, out of the blue, she started coughing. We were supposed to go to my parents for Labor Day, but it had … Continue reading Let’s hear it for some coolness: 9/3-9 Weekly Wrap

Can’t stop, won’t stop: 8/27-9/2 Weekly Wrap

September 2, 2018 ~ Chocolaterunsjudy ~ 37 Comments

Rachel @ Runningonhappy had nothing on my schedule this week. Only I'd decided before the 1812 Challenge that if I finished feeling good, I'd be signing up for another half at the end of September. You'll have to read on to find out which one. 😉 I'm joining up with the Weekly Wrap from Holly @ Hohoruns … Continue reading Can’t stop, won’t stop: 8/27-9/2 Weekly Wrap

Racecation Week: 8/20-26 Weekly Wrap

August 26, 2018 ~ Chocolaterunsjudy ~ 32 Comments

It's always a busy week before a race, but driving instead of flying means that I have more wiggle room with when we leave (although the pet sitters really do like a time!). I'm joining up with the Weekly Wrap from Holly @ Hohoruns and Wendy @ Taking the Long Way Home to wish the Weekly Wrap Happy … Continue reading Racecation Week: 8/20-26 Weekly Wrap

Enjoying single digit runs: 8/13-19 Weekly Wrap

August 17, 2018August 19, 2018 ~ Chocolaterunsjudy ~ 38 Comments

Weather stalking. Cross training. Lots of baking -- I needed to restock the pantry! Humidity. All easy runs that never feel easy due to the weather. I'm joining up with the Weekly Wrap from Holly @ Hohoruns and Wendy @ Taking the Long Way Home as I'm winding down (or is that up?) for my first race past … Continue reading Enjoying single digit runs: 8/13-19 Weekly Wrap

Slogging through Summer: 8/6 – 12 Weekly Wrap

August 12, 2018 ~ Chocolaterunsjudy ~ 29 Comments

It was a miserable week when it came to running. Although the heat wave broke mid week, the humidity didn't -- not until my 10k on Saturday. Then we were blessed with temps we haven't seen in weeks and cloudy skies. It was also a week filled with friendly getogethers, family, and maybe a bit … Continue reading Slogging through Summer: 8/6 – 12 Weekly Wrap
