Here we go again…
Well, it’s January. Once again, we have a chance to start all over. We can make resolutions, start a new fitness plan, set goals. The year is ours; we can make it the best year ever. “Tomorrow is the first blank page of a 365 page book. Write a good one.” Blah, blah, blah. Why…

Sometimes Running Sucks
My running has been less than stellar recently. Considering I ran a 10k this past weekend, the timing is bad. I haven’t had a run that felt good in quite some time. Even three miles is somewhat of a struggle, so running over six was much more difficult than I anticipated. I was thrilled to…

Every once in awhile…
…I have one of those runs. It isn’t particularly fast or incredibly long, rather it makes me appreciate my body’s ability to just get outside and run. Today I set out to run six miles. While that typically isn’t a big deal, today was also my 49th day straight of running, and I had run…

Another Snow Day…
UGH! It’s Thursday, and we’ve been to school a little over one-half day this week. We are now going to be going after Memorial Day, and from experience, I know the kids are finished long before the holiday weekend. Keeping them on task after Memorial Day is like herding cats. Teachers should probably start stocking…

Running and Being a Kid…
My mind works in mysterious ways. I can jump between subjects in a conversation faster than my listener can keep up. In my head, I have gone from one thing to another, and it makes perfect sense. To the average listener (or my husband), I am sure what comes out of my mouth seems completely…

Gotta Tabata!
I have a hundred things I need to do this evening, and writing isn’t really a necessity, but sometimes I just have something to say. Combine that with time by myself, and I am going to write. Surprisingly, I don’t plan to whine in this blog – not one bit. This week I embarked on…

Just What I Was Afraid Of
About four and a half years ago, Gary and I began running and our journey toward fitness and a healthier lifestyle. For the first several months, I worried that I would quit because that’s what I had always done. I would get excited about exercise, and then after a few weeks, I would skip a…

Getting My Mojo Back
It’s been three weeks and three days since surgery. It seems much longer. It’s been three weeks and four days since I really exercised, and I am beginning to really miss my workouts. Tuesday I decided to go for a walk after a meeting at school. I wanted to listen to my music, and see…
