Half Marathon Training Recap: Week 10

I know, I know, I’m sitting here blogging when there are fireworks to be watched and kegs to be tapped (umm…was that the right? Do you tap a keg? Jeez, college wasn’t that long ago!). But since it’s cloudy, I hate beer, and I live on the outskirts of a beach community that’s known for [...]

Half Marathon Training: Week 8 Recap

Wowza, am I really two months into half-marathon training? Well, the race is TWO MONTHS from Tuesday, so I guess so. Now the real…fun?…begins as the long runs keep getting up there in mileage. My PDR is 7 miles, so after next week, I’ll really be in uncharted territory there. Before I go over my [...]

Getting my Zen on at Kripalu: Part 2

Missed Part 1 of my recap of my two-day stay at Kripalu Center? Forgot I even went there at all since it’s been forever? Grr…I’m not going to apologize for my sporadic blogging, since it’s my blog and I do what I want, but still. When they come up with that 30-hour day, I’ll be [...]

Half Marathon Training: Week 7 Recap

Hey! So I slacked on my recap yesterday, so I wanted to post it tonight. BTW, I’m taking advantage of the fact that Mr. Student has a lighter schedule for the summer and letting him do more of the cooking these days. But if I do cook (or…bake…) something worth sharing, you know I will. [...]

Quinoa and Countdowns

Two more days…two more days…two more days of work until my vacation! I’m totally doing the pre-vacation dance. And the countdown. Actually, that’s not even true that I’m done in two days. I’m working overtime at my museum on Saturday and Sunday, and we leave for Boston on Monday. Somewhere in there I need to [...]

Half Marathon Training: Week 1

Happy Sunday! Well, that might be some sort of oxy moron, but still. I’ve had a whirlwind weekend, and next week and next week is going to be insane as well. I’m going to Las Vegas with my dad next weekend, because that’s where all fathers and daughters go for quality time right? Anyway, I [...]

My New Crazy Endeavor, and Why I’m Becoming Popeye

In my last post I asked if you’ve ever done a workout that made you say “WTF AM I DOING” halfway through, and a few of you said yoga. Well, I think I have stumbled upon the craziest of “WTF yoga” out there—Bikram. A friend of mine talked me into going to a class, and [...]

Blogger-inspired (and Supplied!) Lunch

This time change is messing me up! This morning, I missed yoga because I forgot about the “Spring Forward” and woke up too late. (I ended up going at 5:30 instead. It was still light when I got out of class!) Earlier today, I probably had the most delicious lunch I’ve had in quite some [...]
