Yes, today! It’s National Running Day. Last month there was National Walking Day. I love to run. I love to walk. What I want, though – and haven’t seen or heard of yet, is National Move It Day. Running is fantastic. I never thought I would run a 5K, let alone a marathon. That was… Continue reading Happy Day!
Sounds like a game from my teen years. Maybe it’s a little like Truth or Dare. No, not a game. I want to know have you ever been in a relationship that has been decidedly one-sided. By that, I mean one partner is giving more. The other partner may be taking more or may just… Continue reading Have You Ever?
June is not the middle of the year but May is basically over so we are fast approaching a half a year gone by and I am not totally sure where that half a year has gone. I spent January deep in a relationship. When I looked back on myself in that rendition of this… Continue reading Where Has The Year Gone?
I’m always up for a good festival on a beautiful summer weekend. Last year I discovered this spring festival in Pennsylvania. Montrose is not far from where I live in New York. The fact that the festival celebrates two of my favorite things – chocolate and wine – makes Montrose even close. Last year my… Continue reading Festival Fun
Have you ever asked a writer, someone who writes prolifically whether for money or for joy, if they ever read? You will find that good writers read all the time. I am a voracious reader. I average 20 to 25 books a month when I am not at a peak training period for a race.… Continue reading Reading and Writing
You know all about setting goals and reviewing or checking in on them. Do you ever think about relationships the same way? I admit I tend to not take apart relationships while I am in them. I go with whatever is happening. I do, though, go back after a relationship ends and look at all… Continue reading Reviewing Life – Relationships
Through my association with FitApproach, I received four packages of Mealenders to sample and review. All opinions are my own. Item for giveaway is provided by Mealenders directly. Due to overwhelming response, the earliest winner shipments will go out is mid-April. I’m not one for the easy way out on how to lose weight. I… Continue reading MealEnders – A Product Review
It’s Wednesday. The race was Sunday. I feel like I am already behind on a recap but today is my last recovery day. Probably not totally necessary as I had barely trained for this race so why should I recover. In a complete opposite from last year, the weather preceding race day is not spectacular.… Continue reading Asheville Half Marathon – Race Recap
I know! You’ve had enough of hashtags. Why did I put one in my title? Last night I took the 75-80 mile drive up Interstate 81 to Syracuse to catch the second stop on the Tales from Another Mother Runner book tour. This is much better than the trip to Albany in May of 2013… Continue reading #TAMRTour
Race week is here! I have a few races coming up in the next six weeks. Two are out of town and those races tend to stress me out as I do not own a car but I have been known to take a Greyhound bus to a race so no car is not a… Continue reading Race Week
