I did it. My first half-marathon. I was not alone... Over 10,000 others were there too. Most importantly, Katie & Ellie were with me - all 3 of us in our matching hot pink shirts. We even hat matching pink hats! Where should I begin? Should I start at 4 a.m. when...
A clean house makes me happy. It is almost as exciting as chocolate. I'm not kidding. Just as a really good piece of chocolate (dark) sets me twirling and smiling and humming a happy food tune - I am learning having things clean and organized puts me in a similar...
I'm probably crazy. Now for a Half-Marathon. I have decided to sign-up to run the Seattle Half-Marathon. If I do know anything, I do know this: if I don't have a goal, I won't work-out. Week 1 of 12 training weeks looked like this: 3 miles on Friday and 6 miles...
Seriously, where is it? There is never enough... time. I can't find enough. If you happen find extra time, I'll give a good price for it. I'll take it over gold... seriously. This crisis comes on the heels of moving and getting our old place ready to rent. And did I...
I was much more pleased with my times at the Seattle Danskin women's triathlon. I did make a few changes from my last last triathlon - like drinking much more water the day before. AND wearing shorts for biking and running instead of capris, and not losing...
I feel as if... I've been beating on the tops of my legs with a billy club. I am so sore! I don't know if it's due to the new house and having stairs for the first time ever, or that the few times I've run since the Luna Women's Triathlon I've really tried to...
One triathlon down... I'm home and only a little sore. I thought the run would kill me, but my friend Katie was "the wind beneath my wings" as we bounced our way to the finish. Here are my splits, the drama to follow (like the feeling that during the run I would...
Luna Triathlon Training: Week 3 Here are the digits: Swam 45 minutes of 80 scheduled, biked 70 of 195 scheduled, and ran 80 minutes of 120 scheduled. It's better than nothing, but nowhere near I need. In my defense, I didn't do nothing - hardly slept for that matter -...
I am constantly riding my kids about whining, and lately I've been looking a little bit closer at myself. The positive. In short, my own whining and complaining have been bugging me about myself. It comes and goes - depending on how right I am... and how wrong others...
If I look on the bright side... all the piles of clothes that are consuming my bedroom are clean. Which also means... the fact that my son can't find clean undies in the morning shows me he is seeking out clean underwear daily. I suppose I must be doing...
I'm on the spot!
