Boston

In case you’ve been living under a rock, the Boston Marathon is tomorrow. In case you’ve been living in a cave, under said rock, I will not be going. I have not been cool enough to be initiated in to the only club I’ve ever wanted to belong to, not yet anyway. It is supposed […]

20

You can suck it 20! 8:53 pace and ran the last 4 8:30ish. 700 ft elevation.

24 days

Let’s see. Last week I went on my longest run in two weeks. I ran 13 miles slower than MGP and it was windier than all get out..again. I explained to Niki that this is what pool running feels like. Lots of effort but going no where. I was so happy that my shin was […]

Voodoo Doc

Well after my crappy .25 mile of a run that Tuesday I was really looking forward to my first acupuncture treatment. Whoa…what a trip. I talked to Minh (the acupuncturist whom also happens to be a good friend) told him about my shin, popping hip, and dislocating shoulder. He then asked me if I get […]

Need More Shoes

Yep, I am an aqua jogger now. I thought about becoming a race walker but that’s a little close to the 80’s resurgence that is already getting so played out. Besides being an aqua jogger has way cooler accruements to buy. I mean check out this chick… I’m even going to need water running shoes. […]

Spring

March 22, the second day of spring. On the upside is I get to enjoy it from inside because I’m not running at least until Sunday when I’m supposed to run 20 short miles. Today is my first time ever doing acupuncture. I have been told by so many people that it is awesome. I […]

Tempo!

After Sunday’s cluster fu@k of a run I was really feeling the need for redemption. I took Monday completely off, Tuesday did the elliptical for 6 miles and by Wednesday I was so “Fueled by Spite” I almost wanted to puke. (haha not as funny as it reads, but hilarious in my mind). I called […]

Disjointed

It has been 4 days since my 17 miler and I still am unsure how to describe it. So instead of being all wordy and dramatic I’m opting for bullet points or this blog will have to end now. Tragic, I know. -husband out of town -pissing down rain -babysitter hours got all screwy and […]

Blog Trolling

Saw this on Mile Posts. Hurry slowly. Be dedicated and disciplined and work hard, but take your time. Move ahead, but be patient. ~ Grete Waitz It’s pretty much perfect.

It’s official

It kinda grates on my nerves when you ask someone how they are doing and their response is,”Oh my God, I’m just sooo busy.” I mean we are all busy, right? Whether it be a stay at home mom(dad) or working mom(dad), or college student, and even some retired folk. We all think we are […]
