We had a blow-out yesterday. No, not a dirty diaper, a stroller tire. I was walking with the Stroller Posse (six of us with babes and strollers!) in the park and apparently my BOB ran over a nail. We heard a loud bang and looked down to discover I had a flat tire. Of all [...]

bouncing around

I began training for the Honolulu marathon Thursday. No, seriously. I know that is a bold statement but I’ve signed up for it several years in a row and not participated since 2005 so maybe this will be my year. Or maybe not. Who knows? I had only a short amount of time between my [...]
mixing it up

Once again I seem to be finding a million other things to fill my time instead of blogging. Fortunately these other things not only include working and Baby prep, but working out and resting. This past week I’ve been unusually tired again- a result of not sleeping long enough at night because my hips are [...]
catching up

So many days have passed since my last entry and the ironic thing is, I’ve been working out more lately than before! I had one slow day in the past week when I got on an elliptical trainer and felt too overheated to continue. I left the gym and came home to sleep for an [...]
dirt vs pavement

After seeing a race finishing near Crissy Field yesterday, I was craving a run this morning. Luckily I got out of the house early enough to beat the rain! After a short warm-up, I alternated between walking and running, making loops around my new area of the park. There are fewer dirt trails at this [...]
vitamin D

What gorgeous weather we’ve had here lately! Sunny and 70… perfect for soaking up tons of vitamin D. Yesterday morning we decided to lengthen our ride to the farmers market by a few miles and visit the beach first. I began pedaling and realized my knees were wide out to the sides because something was [...]
running again

I ran again today! It feels as though it has been months since I put on my running shoes, but until a few days ago I didn’t miss it so I saw no reason to do it. I went directly from my acupuncture appointment (not painful and no weird reactions this week) to the gym [...]
3 day triathlon

I just got back from a rather unmotivated run-walk, which was necessarily short because I put clothes in the washer at the laundromat and had to be back at the end of the wash cycle to move them over. My back was hurting in the beginning for no apparent reason and in a different place [...]
chicago heat

I can’t count the number of times I said “I wish I lived in Chicago!” this past weekend, but now that I’m home, I’m happy to be back. I biked to work today in the sunshine with RJ, stopping at Papalote for tasty burritos on the way home, and the only thing disagreeable was my [...]
will run for puka dog

I opted out of this morning’s paddle with the outrigger club and I woke up before my mom & sister returned for breakfast so I figured I’d run the canal and see if I’d spot their canoe. Somehow I missed them completely but did enjoy a sprinkling which lead to a beautiful double rainbow. The [...]
