Five years ago this week, Liz and I got to run together in person. In subsequent years we’ve occasionally managed to run at the same time, at the same clock time in our respective time zones or the same distance. A couple of weeks ago I said to Liz that it wasn’t happening. I knew… Read More »
I am not super familiar with Pokemon Go, but I remember when it was A Thing a few years ago. I didn’t realize that was still true, so I was taken very much by surprise when I ran into Go Fest on what’s typically a fairly sleepy Randalls Island. That, and 62 degree temperatures! made… Read More »
no… not running. July has been decently back on track. It was worse when I woke, but I apparently deleted the screenshot it was so horrifying. But I gave up melting for no good reason and re-joined the gym. Running should be challenging, and can be hard, but shouldn’t be miserable. Joining Deborah and Kim… Read More »
Linking up with Deborah and Kim for a look back at the year so far. Yep, this is another overdue post despite starting it a month ago. Seems to be my theme! On June 11 I realized I was way behind in my mileage spreadsheet. I knew why, my running has fallen off. Frequency and… Read More »
Not that I stopped – more on that in the half year recap – but the first half of the year has been weird, running wise. I started to feel the itch to run more again when I got back from my trip and decided to roll with it. Of course the smoke put a… Read More »
I was all set to get back into a running/weekly rundown routine, and then the Canadian fires smoke ate NYC. I could have run, but I mostly opted not to. It didn’t feel good the one day I did, and running is supposed to feel good, right? The smoke did clear in time for the… Read More »
So I’m technically 10K training, but my running/schedule was all over the place this week so it didn’t feel like it. Linking up with Deborah and Kim to look at the week that was. never miss a Monday: I don’t know what it is, but I’m having real trouble getting going in the morning even… Read More »
Spotted on Saturday’s long run. Harlem River Park is a very underused portion of the greenway. The entrance is so poorly marked, I’m not sure I ever completed it during my #GreatManhattanLoop project (ssh don’t tell!) and we definitely didn’t use it during the Great Saunter. Like so many pieces of the east side greenway,… Read More »
Stealing Jessie’s format for this. EEK. It’s not so much that the race is four weeks away as I can’t figure out where January and February went. Linking up with Kim and Deborah to talk about this week. it’s not missing a Monday if I ran two days in a row. Long overdue drinks with… Read More »
One of those crazy weeks that you just have to navigate to get through training. But I did. Training is going well. The workouts may not have happened on the days they were slated, but they all did and the week’s long run felt strong despite some fueling issues. It’s nuts to realize the NYC… Read More »
