one of the things I’ve missed since 2018* is travel spontaneity. With COVID-19, the planning life cycle was both longer and shorter, if that makes sense. I’d be thinking abut a trip further in advance, but I hesitated to book because I wasn’t sure if the thing I was going for would happen, flights would… Read More »
it was also a crazy busy week, but with fun stuff, which is part of what made it a good week. Linking up with Deborah and Kim to talk about fun on (and off) the run. never miss a Monday: after meeting up Sunday, Darlene and I had a plan to maybe run in… Read More »
I love fall running. This week’s routine was all out of sorts with the Monday off and a busy work week, but the runs still happened. That generally doesn’t happen in other seasons, but I hate to miss any run in this perfect weather. And three days in a row at a museum? HAPPY CARI!… Read More »
I don’t over spoil my biological niece, nephew or my college rooommate’s children who are functionally my niece and nephew, but is it possible to say no to Disney for an eight year old’s birthday? Did I even want to if it was indeed possible? Probably not. Related runfession, I ran on the treadmill twice… Read More »
but this year? It felt even more chaotic. I do love what I do, but sometimes it’s a lot to balance. Trying to get back to weekly updates and more caught up on comments. Linking up with Deborah and Kim for some semblance of a run down of the last two weeks. There were new… Read More »
also, this was absolutely spot on for this week’s weather. I blinked and missed July. Wasn’t it just July 4th? Not complaining at all as I’m eager for fall weather, but hello time warp. A fast July brought me closer to vacation, which is always a good thing. It’s going to be a laptop free… Read More »
I think it was two years ago I joked we’d all be making the same weather post. But once again, we’re all cooking. Stay safe everyone. I’m not doing a minute by minute of the last two weeks since they boiled down to: it’s hot, but I still ran, including with Darlene when she was… Read More »
alternate title, the last line from last week: Oh hello March you wonderful gremlin you. Or, stolen from one of Coco’s comments, Marchuary. The boots weren’t needed for accumulation, but warmth as I dragged myself out in plummeting temperatures to pick up a library hold and get some fresh air. The booties are my new… Read More »
sort of? Not really? It’s been no secret that I have no idea whether I’m actually training for the Central Park half. Background: I was supposed to run the Frozen Penguin in early January, but it was cancelled due to Park construction and rather than run a 5K in January, I took a deferral to… Read More »
anyone else remember that taunt? Kids are such shits (and yes, guilty of that on occasion). Monday evening I was saying it to myself as I thankfully laughed off a very minor fall. When I became an official runner and fell on a trail I was most worried about breaking my iPhone. Monday? Was most… Read More »
