I’m back baby!! In the past 2 weeks I have gotten into a bit of a training groove. It hasn’t been all rosy 100% of the time- it is a process- I’m taking it day by day- but I’m happy to report that I had a “4 runs” week and then a “3 runs” weekContinue reading “Things that are working/Things that aren’t”

Come hell or high water…
I’m doing it. I’m gonna run come hell or high water- my post last week where I ran (pardon the pun) down every (quite valid really) reason I can’t be running right now just didn’t sit right. Instead of making me feel “better” or “relieved” or “off the hook” I was just depressed about it.Continue reading “Come hell or high water…”
Run-iversary
I miss running. I miss running a lot. Lately as I been driving like a crazy woman to work and back, picking up and dropping off children, I will pass places that I used to run when I was training for the marathon. It is the “far away” places that get to me the most.Continue reading “Run-iversary”
Time keeps on ticking…
I don’t have time to be doing this… I don’t have time to be doing anything really, or that’s what it feels like- Have you ever been so busy that you don’t even know where to start, you kind of feel frozen? I guess that’s called being overwhelmed, I am overwhelmed at the moment. IContinue reading “Time keeps on ticking…”
Je suis ici!
I am here. Life is CR-azy. 2 runs in the past 2 weeks. New job, new kids schedules… I am determined I will run again, VERY soon. I cannot wait for things to settle down, but rather, must figure out how to work within this chaos. Because really, when is my life ever NOT chaotic?Continue reading “Je suis ici!”
Good things…
come to those who wait…
I’m not so sure…
Heigh Ho Heigh Ho…
I’ve been away for awhile, we went on our very fun trip to Tofino (saw whales, a bear an eagle, lots of sea lions, surfed, boogie boarded, evening fire on the beach… did it all!) and when I returned I had 1 week to prepare for a job interview. Not just any job interview, butContinue reading “Heigh Ho Heigh Ho…”
Baby steps
Did I mention that I am finding it hard to stick to any kind of programme? There many things to “blame” it on (the heat, the kids being home for summer vacation, my “iffy” knee) but mostly I am staying calm about the whole thing and trying to find that balance between taking the summerContinue reading “Baby steps”
Feelin’ Hot Hot Hot!
My “haven’t run in 3 days” excuse de jour? It’s just too darn hot!! It seems we’re breaking records in the temperature department here in balmy Vancouver… 33.8 Celsius! and while I don’t have too big a problem with it myself I find the kids to be particularly cranky, and of course the last 2 nights haveContinue reading “Feelin’ Hot Hot Hot!”
