With some of the weather lately, my time cycling has dwindled. It is unfortunate this has come along just as our team has really started to ramp up the hill climbing, distance and time on the bike. I’m concerned by the time I get back out there I will have either not progressed or, worse, […]

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.

I’ve made a promise to myself. Well, technically someone else heard said promise, so I guess I made a promise to her, as well. Today marks the start of week two of my third go ‘round of a little flick in my life I’ve entitled “Running for Women – The Beginner. Still.” The opening montage […]

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 […]

Although it hasn’t been more than a drizzle, there’s something do be said about running in the damp fall weather. In fact, there a several things I could say about it. Not all of them flattering, however. On the first night of this session, I arrived to find a plethora of ladies standing circled around […]

I’ve hung around me 24/7 for, what seems like, forever. In all of that time, I haven’t noticed me complaining so much as I have since I started knowingly trying to get healthier. Right now I’m looking back with mixed emotions over those days, months, years I spent on my beloved couch. And not just […]
