So this morning I ran day 19 of the 30 days of 5K’s challenge. That I gave myself. That I’m doing with no one. And for no particular reason other than seeing if I could. I have honestly hesitated to post because I figure if it went horribly wrong (or I got really hurt or …
After the devastation in Moore, OK, yesterday, I’ve had it with death and dying. There’s just been so many major events in the last few months – really if you go all the way back to Sandy Hook Elementary. Then we had Boston. And West, TX. And the tornado in Granbury, TX, just last week. …
I bought the blog a birthday bagel. But since blogs can’t eat, I ate it.

So I hadn’t originally planned for this to be three days in a row of blogging, but having done the day before my half and the day of, seems only logical I would write, real time, about what I’m experiencing today, the day AFTER my half marathon. First off let me say to my looney …
It was a fantastic morning for a run!! There was a great spirit in the air that runners have anyway, but especially after the events of last week, we were all there together and I loved it. I adore the running community and it’s truly what keeps me doing these crazy things. I had been …
So, since this is Friday, and the GE Irving Marathon is TOMORROW, and since I’m living it in real time, thought I’d share some of my pre-race routine. I’m going to post a couple of articles, too, because as we know, I don’t REALLY know what I’m talking about, I just steal things from other …
