well not silence, exactly. Serenity? Linking up with Deborah and Kim for some weekly run down of squirrel footsteps never miss a Monday: on a weird pattern of running out of daylight (aka leaving the work later than planned) and running to the gym where I finish my run. Filed under, some > none Tuesday, the Cari… Read More »
Unlike some of you, I’m not sorry to see the weather go. I will miss the long daylight though. If we have a heat wave it’s because I took out the AC. I missed the breeze in my apartment. 2023 will be the year I replace my wall unit. I packed a lot into this… Read More »
I cannot believe it’s been twenty years since 9/11, even though I’ve been thinking about it since my Japan anniversary. Amazing to think how many alive now for whom it’s history and not something they lived through. I’ve already blown up social media, so for this just have Tribute in Light from the Ferry and… Read More »
So glad so many were able to “join” me in the 9/11 Virtual 5K. In honor of the twentieth anniversary, the museum is remembering and celebrating the 9/12 spirit when the world came together. Throughout these last couple of years, I’ve really missed that and I’m hoping we can remember how to get back to… Read More »
and I really wish someone would invent a brain/typed words app because I wrote most of this on the run, but sitting down to type it…especially as WordPress is glitchy today This ad keeps popping up on Facebook. I love my ghost puns and have a fun 26.Boo one, but this might also need to… Read More »
I’ve seen the article that floated around about whether running is a selfish past time. I don’t buy it – at least not any more than any solo activity. We do what makes us happy, and if we’re able to, we give back. But this week? There’s something bigger than all of us. Where were… Read More »
I logged into the new NYRR site to check on something and was welcomed with the above. WOW. 25 NYRR races in two and a bit years of running. 170 NYRR race miles. To say I didn’t see this when I first set the treadmill to 4.0 is an understatement. So glad I did,… Read More »
as I’ve mentioned, I love how much NYRR does to give back. I always try to get to Global Running Day events, but June is always a crap shoot work wise. I was glad this weekend when they announced a 7AM 5K that starts even closer to me than most Central Park runs. And there’s… Read More »
My TomTom has been having sporadic GPS issues of late that seem to be getting worse. The battery isn’t lasting as long as it used to either. It owes me nothing, it’s a hand me down that I’ve had for a year and a half, and its previous owner had it about a year. It’s… Read More »
I’m reading The Fire Inside by Steve Delsohn after reading about it in an AskMe that was recently linked in Meta Talk. I have no interest in becoming a firefighter, but it got me thinking. I knew it was somewhat dated as it didn’t cover 9/11, but it was only when I went to add… Read More »
