Y’all know that I love audiobooks – I listen to them as I drive, as I run, and as I cycle (if I could figure out ways to listen as I showered & swam, I’d add those to the list — and speaking of swimming, I need to get back to swimming regularly). Right now,… Continue reading Where I answer Klosterman’s 23 questions
Where I wordlessly recap the marathon #WordlessWednesday
Where I recap my second take at the Harrisburg Marathon
About two years ago, I started running, and I’ve thought back on that time a lot lately. Back then, it was purely about health – getting myself to move, committing to a “better me.” I promised that I wouldn’t, ever, care about my time – I’d go further and further and further. I’d find my… Continue reading Where I recap my second take at the Harrisburg Marathon
Where I write in six words before the #harrisburgmarathon
I am completely & irreparably insane.
Where I pour my heart out
So, I’m over at Shell’s place today, pouring my heart out about worry. Won’t you hop over & say “hi?”
Where I fast forward 72 hours to my next marathon

Where I say “whoops” after looking at the calendar
This weekend was, basically, the last weekend for a “long run” before the marathon. So, naturally, we got about a foot of snow while the calendar still read “October,” and running in a wintery mix is not exactly what I wanted to do. So, I bag a run on Saturday and then, against my better… Continue reading Where I say “whoops” after looking at the calendar
Where I let the crazy come as it may.
It’s Friday, and I’m exhausted. This shouldn’t be surprising to any of you. Exhausted has become my status quo. So, we present, to you, a stream of consciousness. I’ve started reintroducing meat to my life. Simply, I wasn’t being very careful about what I was eating, and I’m pretty sure that chicken broth, lard, and… Continue reading Where I let the crazy come as it may.
