    When running happens…

    Since running my marathon, it has been ridiculous. The first few days were fine. Just your typical mild soreness, but as you read in my marathon recap, my back did lock up on me and I am still experiencing it today….yuck! But then my fibromyalgia started to flare up worse than usual. So there’s that. Here…

    25th Anniversary runDisney Marathon

    WOW! To say that this weekend was memorable, it’s an understatement. From the Cigna  blogger event, where we learned about nutrition and exercise in a fun way where we stacked cups, apples, did (fake) shot, played beer pong without the beer, oh yeah…we sang too. Then it was time to check into my home away from…

    Be kind to your muscles

    I am always on the hunt for the best way to recover or release the tension in your muscles. Especially when you come back from a run or just suffer from chronic muscles spasms and need tension relief. Sometimes Some methods work better than others and there is always new stuff coming out so I…

    Thanks for the lessons 2017

    Another year is going, going gone. And I am not sad to see it go. 2017 gave me a shitload of challenges. And yes, they are continuing and probably the only thing I will carry on into the new year. Unfortunately my declining health is the ongoing problem I will always carry onto the new…

    Monday.

    Some days are rough, some days don’t even have a word to describe it. But a way to recover from them or to survive…is to RUN. At least that is what they say. Running can be difficult at times, yes, but it can also be therapeutic too. Some people blast some music in their headphones…

    It’s your imperfections that make you…YOU

    Life gets tough at times and throws things your way you don’t expect or want to even accept, but sometimes you have no choice. Last August I had a small stroke and since then my body has been affected. While there wasn’t anything done permanently to my brain, there seems to be one lasting effect.…

  • Be OBSESSIVELY grateful

    Be OBSESSIVELY grateful

    2017 has been ferociously mean, and yet I am grateful. I have learned lots through the months and the year is still not over. This year has not been my favorite, but that doesn’t mean that I am not grateful for it. We all know running in general isn’t easy, not even for the most…

    May the RUN be with you.

      I am always on the hunt for a good virtual race. I can’t always travel around to races to I look for the next good thing and do the virtual runs and give myself challenges. I make them fun, interesting, and sometimes hard work. Depending on the distance of the race. I think I…
