So. That happened. A few months ago, I wondered if I was going to make it to the re-commitment date for Team in Training’s Triathlon at Pacific Grove event. On the day of the event, (some would say ‘race’), as I stood on the beach after having dog paddled around a bit in a safe […]

I had to wait a week to write this entry. I needed to be sure it wasn’t a fluke or a one-time thing. It has happened twice now, so it must be real. I ran. Without intervals. Without walking. Without so much as a curse word escaping my being. I ran. Slowly. Methodically. Deliberately. Constantly […]

Right now I’m looking back with mixed emotions over those days, months, years I spent on my beloved couch. And not just […]

So, the time has come for the RFW Spring session to officially ramp up, then wind down to completion. This marks the last week of the course and on Friday evening my running shoes will be asking me to put them out to pasture. They were far too expensive, however, and they will not be […]

I recently got together with some friends from a past profession/life. Every time we’re together, which is not nearly often enough for me, I pretty much just sit back and take it all in. It’s as if I’m an audience member and the studio is a busy barroom somewhere in the middle of where we […]
