Goal Review

I try, at the beginning of each month, to look at how I am doing with my annual goals.

Fitness I am still not running a full marathon. I have not been tempted to… Continue reading Goal Review

Summer for a Day

This past weekend we experienced, here in my small part of upstate NY, a summer weekend. Highs were in the mid 70s which is not normal for this fourth month of the year. That along with a need to get items to certain people prior to my move led me to a lot of bike miles over a five day… Continue reading Summer for a Day

Goals in Review

The first quarter of 2016 is over. Can you believe that? I am not sure I am moving quickly enough towards my 2016 goals but I know I am moving. I sometimes think I am moving at a crawl. Case in point, yesterday on Facebook, my memories came up discussing a 167 mile March. That was in 2012. It was my second… Continue reading Goals in Review

Hello March!

Normally, today would be a review of the last month but this coming month has my full attention.  Might have something to do with yesterday’s 50F temp and turning down the heat, forgetting to turn it up and a 21F morning. I’ve since warmed up but have a lot on my mind than any goal… Continue reading Hello March!

Five Things I Wish I’d Known

I am sure there are more than five but I wish someone had told me, or I had had the foresight to tell another runner, these five things at the start of my running career. You have to remember that I didn’t start running until the wonderful age of 46 with my “baby” of the… Continue reading Five Things I Wish I’d Known

This Time of Year

Yes, a title like that could get into just about any topic and maybe I will. Or maybe I’ll stick to the topic I was thinking of when I came up with the title. I’m having trouble staying focused this time of year. Normally, because of a spring marathon on the horizon, it is not… Continue reading This Time of Year
