    Day 77

    Snow for real! Schools are closed. Government is closed. Buses are on a special schedule and can cancel any time without notice. Yeehaw! It means  we are going camping (can’t wait). That’s how I feel any way. The camping trip is this weekend but I feel we can go today! We have been waiting since last weekend for snow when it was supposed to snow and it has been pushed back to today. (more…)

    Day 70

    I have been staying indoor for most part because the cold just stings. You could layer up and cover yourself but cold is cold. There are people running still. Not me. At least for most part.  Probably just an excuse for me though. I know I can run in the cold.  (more…)

    Day 69

    I had a long weekend doing two things of my heart’s desire. Running and hiking. At the end of it, I still couldn’t believe it. It was like yeah, I have done this all my life. It was fun, I was told at the end of it all. That caught me by surprise. (more…)

    Day 60 / Second Review – “December Update”

    The last 30 days came and  disappeared like a flash. I blogged another 30 days! The highlight was the 31 miles (50K) race completed. You can read all about it in the race report. Before the race I didn’t think I was prepared enough. I, at the time, had no idea how I could run another 5 miles on top of running a 26 miles. Then there were all kinds of panic at the last minute regarding the weather not being optimal on the race day. In the end these fears were moot. The race went well. I did finish, and that all it mattered.

  • Finally got outside

    I finally got myself outside and ran. Not going to go in details about how my body reacted…and adjusted to running again. My right hip area still bothers me. It feels like something is wrong with the joint socket or one of the nerve/muscles is a bit off. I could locate that particular muscle with my finger but I was all at lost trying to look up a human anatomy diagram to figure out which one it was… I know I should go seek an expert/specialist. Somehow I am like one of those people who never seek a doctor unless it is time to roll over and die. Oh my goodness. I know.

    Anyway, the run was great.  (more…)

    It is something I would imitate…keep it up!

  • Looking ahead 2019-2020

    I am picking races to do for next couple years. I want to join the 50-50 club, that is to run all fifty states by the time I reach 50 years old (more…)

  • It’s Friday

    I finally weighed myself and I broke the scale –figuratively. Haha! I’m way heavier than I thought. It must be all the pizzas (more…)

  • In the grind

    I had a blog post ready for today but in the end decided to scratch that. I have in the past wrote to myself but now there are a few readers (more…)
