Sleeping with the Running Chick

Sunday, August 31st, 2008

I’m here in Connecticut with Dianna.
We have the New Haven Road Race tomorrow.
But first we are going to bed.
Well, not together.  What the heck were you people thinking?

1:42 am

Why the heck am I up at 1:42 AM?
Because I’m a flmaing idiot.
Egads.
Go to bed, stupid.

Last hills

Wednesday, August 27th, 2008

I ran the hilly 3.25 at the park tonight, which will be the last hill run before New Haven.  I have one more run this week.  I think its only 2 miles.  Actually, I need a 2 miler tomorrow and Friday, but I’m going to dinner at my sister’s house Friday so no run that [...]

Late night bullets

Sunday, August 24th, 2008

I hate when people do bullets.  It makes them look like they think they are so damn important that people will be desparate for anything they have to say, and bulletpointed items will give them just enough to be happy.
That being said, I don’t have time for a full post but I wanted to post [...]

Corn!

Thursday, August 21st, 2008

I stopped at the corn stand that pass every day on the way to work (only this time I stopped on the way home).  The sign by the road had been taken down but I went up to the stand anyway.  It was self service!  All this time, I could have had fresh corn and [...]

Looking for zucchini

Tuesday, August 19th, 2008

I had 5 miles on the schedule tonight, but the road just outside the neighborhood was undergoing major repaving.  With traffic backed up and the road filled with piles of asphalt, cones, and sweaty guys in fluorescent vests, I decided it wasn’t a safe place to go running.
So I drove the truck about a mile [...]

No gym for me

Monday, August 18th, 2008

I was supposed to go to the gym tonight, but I stayed late finishing something at work and then I stopped to talk to the boss.  Then I had to stop at the store and get ground flax seed, and I had to get gas for the giant metal pig that I drive to work.
Home [...]

10 miles!

Sunday, August 17th, 2008

Its been a long time since I ran 10 miles (well, aside from the 30 minutes ago run).  I had some beautiful weather out there this AM.  I wore my baseball cap to keep the sun off my head, but ended up carrying it for most of the way just to let my head cool [...]

Old tagging

Saturday, August 16th, 2008

Jank tagged me about 10 years ago, so I finally got around to thinking of something to say.  Share 5 facts about yourself on your blog, some random, some weird
1. I have been scolded by the Secret Service. My friend and I were in DC touring the area and there was a big [...]

fast post

Thursday, August 14th, 2008

Just a VERY quick post because its late and I need to get to bed so I can 1) get up for work and 2) forget that I’m hungry and eat everything in the house.
I did 5 miles in the moonlight tonight and it was really really nice.  I miss the night runs on cool [...]
