I drank 56 ounces of water yesterday.
Pin itI know. It’s riveting. You can’t look away, can you? I am taking the Crystal Light Water Way Challenge this week, and writing about how all this water is affecting my bladder body. Look at that picture to the left… I’m all happy and hydrated and celebrating 56 ounces on Day 1! How much [...]
The Nail Fairy?
Pin itMy feet are a WRECK. Over the past 3 years I have stacked running and triathlon events in such a way that my feet have not have the opportunity to return to the intended state they were given to me. You know, 10 intact, cute-ish toes… all with nails. Not model feet, but I [...]
One Reason Why Yoga (and Pilates) is a Hard Sell for Me
Pin itI lump them both into the same category of people: Pilates… Yoga… it’s all the same to me. I know the ladies at Where’s My Damn Answer are Pilates lovahs… I’m sorry my friends. I have yet to see the draw. Don’t hate me. I know if you were with me in a class, [...]
A Post About Other Posts
Pin itNo new stuff here because I have new stuff at Type-A Mom and Mom on the Spot. At Type-A Mom I discuss that fact that I have discovered I can’t be still. I don’t know if it’s mania or mania. Anywho… feel free to check-out I Cannot Be Still at Type-A Mom… At Mom [...]
Make Me Laugh Monday – Awesome and Pain
Pin itDear friends, I apologize for the delay here. Instead of crafting yet another dynamic MMLM post yesterday… I piled my bawdy high with ice. I filled her with ibuprofen and drank inordinate amounts of water. I ate a Carl’s Junior Western bacon cheeseburger for lunch and *ahem* evacuated all but prolly an eighth of [...]
My First Full Marathon & Pride
Pin itSo… the marathon I have been training for is tomorrow. I am faced with a few questions/issues as my day of reckoning reckon’s me. Or something. 1) Am I going to be able to not simply finish, but even begin? I’m not sure. Had I remained uninjured, I’d be feeling pretty confident about now. [...]
In which I whine a little.
Pin itThis post is for those of you who have been bearing with me as I go on and on about some “marathon” I have been training for… for the past 18 weeks. Only 18 weeks. WAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! Goshgollydoggoneitalltoheckalmightyofthewholeworld. Did you see that? I totally just made spell check wig-out. Kinda like I made my Achilles [...]
A little bit of this, a little bit of that…
Pin itA little bit of this: An insider look… this Jenny on drugs blogging: Sure… it LOOKS like I’m thinking, but… prolly not so much. A little bit of that: My son… He’s 9 and I have no idea how I became the mother of a nine year boy. I have been in “baby/toddler/preschooler” mode [...]
I Have Tendinitis and My Marathon is in 15 Days.
Pin itAs you all may know (or if you don’t I’m about to tell you)… I have been training to run a full marathon. I started an 18 week training plan almost 16 weeks ago. *pats self on the back* Wanna know what happened? Tendinitis. More specifically, Achilles tendinitis. Good times. Not severe, but if [...]
Marathon Training Update: The 20 Miler
Pin itJust a little update for those who are interested… I hit my peak-distance training run yesterday. 20 miles. And it actually went well… If you don’t consider: My left ankle (then moved up to my lower-calf) experienced sometimes sharp, but mostly dull pain the last 10 miles. That’s all. I have gained 8 pounds [...]
