Yep, it’s that sort of day, so here’s some bullet points for ya: I’m sluggish and a little crabby today, which I’m going to blame on the heat. I know you’ve heard this from all us Californians the past couple of days, but it is HOT and I am over it. I cranked out a […]
T.H.I.E.F!
Thank Heavens I’m Exercising Friday! *crickets chirping* Okay, you know what? Sometimes I’m not clever. In fact, most days I have to settle for “mildly amusing.” I rode my bike today!! Yay!! It was a very short and slow ride which ordinarily wouldn’t have been blog-worthy at all. Ah, but today I’ll regale you with […]
Phunny Photos
Yesterday, Laurie from The {Mis}Adventures of a Jogging Stroller Mom – who totally cracks me up, btw. Do you already read her blog? If you don’t, you should, because she is her very own brand of awesome. Wow, nothing like digressing from my own topic in the very first sentence. Anyhoo… Laurie posted some official […]
A Day in the Life…
Beth over at Shut Up and Run! did a great post today, giving us a glimpse (okay, more than a glimpse, there was poop talk) into her life and asking her readers to do the same. Since I know you spend most of your day wondering about me (don’t you???), I’m happy to provide you […]
Bloggy Award Fun
I’m very pleased to be the recipient of the two latest Bloggy Awards that are out there floating around, the Cherry on Top Award and the Happy 101 Award. Many, many thanks to the lovely bloggers who awarded me: Ginny @ Java Joggers, who takes lots of gorgeous pictures and has terrific giveaways (which […]
Six Things Sunday
Ahhh, Happy Labor Day Weekend! In the spirit of celebrating the working folks with a day of laziness, here is my bullet-point post for the day: Thank goodness Recovery Week is over! As mentioned previously, I am not a huge fan of Recover Week. I find it sort of boring and sometimes even harder than […]
Mama Goes Masters Virtual Race Report
Today was the big day – the Mama Goes Masters 4.0 Mile Virtual Race! I’ve been anticipating this race for several weeks now, so I was definitely feeling the nerves when I woke up. I drank my coffee, checked my email and headed out to the starting line…in front of my house. Note to […]
Hillacious, Bodacious and Review-acious?
Today’s run was a 14-miler on the gorgeous nearby bike trail. I was both excited – because I enjoy long runs – and nervous – because this route is HILLY, and I haven’t run 14 miles since early spring. I have done any very much hill work recently, so I had a feeling today was […]
3:30 am Thursday
It’s true, I was up and running in the 3 o’clock hour again this morning. My training plan is so completely jacked right now from all the unforeseen circumstances – my hours at work, The Hubs’ training and racing plans, unscheduled travel, etc. – that I’m not even sure if today was supposed to be […]
Whatchu Got?
Patrick and Kovas made me do it, I swear. The thing about running or triathlon-ing is, the more you do it, the more gear you “need.” Suddenly, the garage that used to be full of cars is full of bikes, and the shoe rack of high heels is replaced with boxes of Newtons. These are […]
