We survived our second Nor'easter in 2 weeks -- with another one possibly coming our way this coming week. Enough with the snow! I'm joining up with the Weekly Wrap from Holly @ Hohoruns and Wendy @ Taking the Long Way Home to share how I'm getting back to activity after being sick. Workouts update Monday: Dogwalk Tuesday: Dogwalk, 4 … Continue reading My Mom’s Big 9-0: 3/5- 11 Weekly Wrap

Currier & Ives: 2/26- 3/4 Weekly Wrap
On Friday our world was turned into a picture perfect Christmas card. It snowed for well over 12 hours (we were initially told to expect rain and maybe 3 inches of snow). I'm joining up with the Weekly Wrap from Holly @ Hohoruns and Wendy @ Taking the Long Way Home to actually share a few more miles … Continue reading Currier & Ives: 2/26- 3/4 Weekly Wrap
Hey, I got a few miles in!: 2/19- 25 Weekly Wrap
I am still slowly returning to activity, getting back into the house cleaning groove (as much as I ever am), and resting a lot. The Olympics came along at a good time. I'm joining up with the Weekly Wrap from Holly @ Hohoruns and Wendy @ Taking the Long Way Home to actually share a few miles this … Continue reading Hey, I got a few miles in!: 2/19- 25 Weekly Wrap
Second zero week: 2/12- 18 Weekly Wrap
It's been a long time since I've been laid up by illness for so long. The really frustrating thing is that outside of a handful of days, I never felt super sick. But just as I was feeling better, suddenly I kept getting random spikes of fever that would come out of nowhere and be … Continue reading Second zero week: 2/12- 18 Weekly Wrap
Zero Week: 2/5- 11 Weekly Wrap
It's gonna be relatively short and sweet this week since there just wasn't a whole lot going on. By now I thought I'd be running again. It's not that I couldn't, it's just that I know if I continue to rest now I'll come back stronger rather than potentially relapsing (like a lot of people … Continue reading Zero Week: 2/5- 11 Weekly Wrap
Be careful what you wish for: 1/29- 2/4 Weekly Wrap
I started the week fairly determined to run outside every day. And my wish was granted. Be careful what you wish for eh? On Friday I started to feel tired in the afternoon, but I did a lot around the house. Saturday I woke up with a sore threat and mildly elevated resting heart rate. … Continue reading Be careful what you wish for: 1/29- 2/4 Weekly Wrap
I ran out of ice: 1/22- 28 Weekly Wrap
Songs that involved ice, that is. I tried to look up new ones but nothing caught my fancy. Ice seemed to play somewhat prominently in this week. This felt like the first normal activity week in a long, long time. And no shoveling, either, which was a blessing (although the remnants tried to take me … Continue reading I ran out of ice: 1/22- 28 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
Another one bites the dust: 1/8- 14 Weekly Wrap
Race streak, that is. I've been doing the New Year's Day "race" since 2011; I ran this race before I'd even run my first half! First it got pushed from New Years Day to today due to the extreme cold on New Years Day. Turned out to be just as cold today, and despite the … Continue reading Another one bites the dust: 1/8- 14 Weekly Wrap
Short & Sweet: 1/1- 7 Weekly Wrap
Kind of like me. Still battling that on again off again low grade temp. I'm not sick enough to not work out, and not quite feeling good enough to work out as much as normal. There's the horrible crud that's been making the rounds that lasts for weeks, and thankfully mine is not that bad. … Continue reading Short & Sweet: 1/1- 7 Weekly Wrap
