One Year Later
April 1st 2012. The year is up. I have not blogged about my running for most of February and all of March. I just wasn't able to keep up to it, and then with other things going on in my life, I decided to just write a final blog. So,... Continue reading

Gross Running
Will the coughing never end? I can't believe the amount of grossness coming out of my face. The runny nose and the wet cough. It is gross. I am tired of it. I can't seem to get that to quit. It takes me a large amount of tissues to where... Continue reading

Running Nose
I went for a run after 2 days of really sick. I will admit I am still stuffed up and coughing. I realize that others would scoff at my willingness to go for a run at all. I am not under any medication and I feel more like myself. I... Continue reading

Rise and Fall
Mama is sick or atleast starting to be sick. I have been taking extra vitamin C, anti-cold pills (which I renamed pro-health pills) and drinking lots of water. I feel a bit run down and as always can usually fight it. I saved my running for the evening when I... Continue reading

My Dear Lady
This is the last day in January that I ran, meaning, I ran on the 30th but did not run the 31st. I see that I have 2 months left of my challenge. I am tired. I am glad I did this, and there are still moments when I say... Continue reading

Simple
The girls came home today from the camping weekend. I missed them. We got them home and showered and unpacked. They were all relaxed and looking tired from lack of sleep and tons of fun. They were settled. I didn't even want to go for a run, but silence had... Continue reading

Looking At Me
Have you learned anything about me after all these months of blogging? The truth is that I am not one to reveal too much of my heart. It hurts when the words leave my mouth. I can't fathom that words are really enough to explain how the heart feels and... Continue reading

High-Jacker
I went running in town. It is dark and cold. I think that I am crazy for running at night in town. I run only on lighted streets which many would probably say is not wise either. I can only go with the hope that I will remain safe and... Continue reading

A Day of Silence
"You don't stop running because you get old. You get old because you stop running." Jack Kirk There are days I feel old. My body creaks and cracks in the morning. I run and I feel like I have weights dragging on my feet. I don't feel rejuvenated. I feel... Continue reading

Deep Run Thinking
Happy Birthday Bee! 10 years ago I had my first child. She was incredibly cute. I remember bringing her home, rocking in the chair and looking up and seeing an hour had past. It was easy to get wrapped up in you. I continue to see that sweetness every time... Continue reading

A Sneak Out
I prepared for Bee's family birthday. Yes, I know. I do two parties for one child. I've heard the remarks that I am crazy. "Our home is small." I reply. She had a sleepover with her friends which really should be enough. But, the family is large and they all... Continue reading

The cold weather through a wrench in all my plans. Bee's birthday slumber party is coming up and because of the cold weather I stayed put. Plus, the kids were home with the buses not running and we couldn't go shopping for Bee's party with Bee right there. So, I... Continue reading

No Excuses

What I've Learned About Running
This is what I’ve learned about running so far: 1) Running is cheap. It requires no money, just your own energy and body. 2) You do not need fancy running gear. There is a market out there for workout wear, but I can’t afford it. So, I pass on the... Continue reading

Back to Life
This was a bad day. I sort of refused to run. I had got some of my gear on, but when it came time to go out I just could not convince myself to go out. Hubby had gone back to work. The pathways were icy and I was tired.... Continue reading
