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 […]

As you might imagine, it’s been a very busy few weeks for me. I seems when I’m not at work, I’m cycling. When I’m not at work or cycling, I’m in the Running for Women class. When I’m not at work or cycling or in the RFW class, I’m playing softball. When I’m not at […]

Here’s something. Something I figured out a while ago, but only recently accepted. Now that I’m a three-time Veteran of the Beginning Running for Women’s class, I’ve come to realize…I’m spoiled. It occurred to me while I was completing my honor run at the gym this week. On a treadmill. I was bored. B. O. […]

For most of my life, I’ve been unable to run or do a lot of exercises comfortably. The main issues early on tended to be my knees. While in high school, I was diagnosed with chondromalacia. Now, I don’t recall if that was a diagnosis based purely on my explaining my symptoms to my doctors […]

Our RFW class is smack dab in the middle of its eighth week. I’m remembering the eighth week not-so-fondly from the last session. This is right around when things started to go awry for me and my ability, desire and self-confidence. …mostly my self-confidence. This was close to the time when I first began to […]
