The weather has been relentless in these parts. Downpours, 50 mph winds, and 40 degree temperatures do not make for good running conditions for a newbie like me.

This morning was no exception. I don't want to put off running just because of the weather so today I took a deep breath and made a second date with the treadmill. As you recall I don't much like the treadmill or as what many of you have referred to as the dreadmill.

However, I do like to run so my adversity to the dreadmill w...

So....

First real date with Superman was yesterday. I was going to post something about it but I wanted to wait until today so that I could experience the full effect of the abuse he put me (Lois Lane) through.

By abuse I of course mean love.

First of all, he calls these things my friends.


I call them my enemy (Lex Lugers) and I'm pretty sure they will NEVER make it into the category of being my friend.

It probably wouldn't have been so bad if I could just walk arou...

Look both ways

Monday, April 5th 2010

When I run in my neighborhood I often come across this beauty of advice when crossing the street:

The other side was always our goal. Maybe it was to go to the candy store or the playground. Maybe it was to go to a friends house or to return home after a long day of hanging out on a summer day. We’re always tol...

Recovered and moving on / First non c25k run / Easter

Sunday, April 4th 2010

I waited.

Patiently.

I cried in the middle of the night for no apparent reason, waking up and feeling stuck. But I didn't get mad at myself. I just said "Well this must be what I needed to feel" so I cried myself to sleep and woke up the morning: Recovered and ready to move on. Saturday's tend to be pretty important days for me with them being OWiS (official weigh in saturday) days and I just couldn't let myself lay in bed feeling upset.

Got good numbers yesterday (-2.8)...

I really want to run today. This damn rain is upsetting me. I’m up early on my day off to get out there and move. Instead I’m having to wait for the gym to open up (one hour to go) so that I can at least get a good swim in and some time on the elliptical.

Today is Saturday and if you’ve been around for a while then you know today is Official Weigh in Saturday or what I like to call: OWiS!



That’s a -2.8 loss this week. A total of 33.5

I’m a extremely happy about this, t...
