Continue reading →: FREE. THE. NIPPLES.
Hey friends, I try to not judge, but lately, I’ve seen a few things I think we need to change. I know, it’s tough, but let’s see if we can do this. It is running-related, I promise. I am lucky that I have gotten rid of most of my shame.…

Continue reading →: And… we’re BACK!
I guess I hadn’t told many of you so when people see me running and they haven’t seen me in weeks or months, they are perplexed: “you’re running now?“. I am. It all started back again, out of nowhere, with July, and I’ve been doing around 25 miles a week…

Continue reading →: Do you “like” to run hard?
I really don’t. I always knew I run my easy runs too slow, my long runs too too slow and I do my tempos and intervals with very little enthusiasm. I realized this morning, when a friend was dragging me through a fast half mile (which was probably at 9mm) that…

As a blogger, I get very random offers to try products. Sometimes they’re interesting, sometimes it’s stuff I would buy anyway, and sometimes things I’d never even bother to try. But when Buick emailed me to offer me a CAR, (A CAR!) I had no clue what to think or do.…

As you might have read, I lost most of my running mojo some time back and I have been quite off. But, I had signed up for the mini… and my parents were in town and wanted to see me race. Also, the mini is like THE quintessential race… I have done…

While I have no reason to say that because I am happily married, I am far from the typical woman who might want to get married. I really never thought I would get married, I was never interested in the whole marriage thing and definitely not interested in planning a…

So much fallout since my post yesterday to stop running, I had to sit and re-analyze everything all over again… I had so many people being SO understanding… telling me how they felt the same, how it had been a while since they enjoyed it, but they keep at it, or…

It’s been weeks, emm, months of this and it’s time I do something about it: I’ve lost all will to run. Seriously. I just don’t want to anymore. I feel a bit guilty about this, but just around 10% guilty. And it’s only because I can’t eat the way I…
