An Earthquake hit Alaska at 8:29 Friday (11/30/2018) morning with a magnitude of 7.0 and a depth of about 30 miles (pretty shallow). The epicenter was about 7 miles N of Anchorage which is pretty close to me. I felt like I was sitting right on top of it. My house shook for what […]
August Family Fun Time
August has been busy but full of fun and family time. To start off with, Scott and I took a hike up Mile High Trail in Eagle River. We initially just wanted to go on a hike, but once we got there, we noticed lots of blueberries and thought about picking some. This area has an […]
Running Update
Wow, it has been a busy month. How can it be the end of August already. The time just flies these days and I can’t keep up! Running Update I was given the okay to go from the treadmill to running on any terrain by my PT. And I did just that. I went from […]
Running Update and Finding a Physical Therapist
Running Update I have advanced from this run 1/walk 1 on the running program to run4/walk 1 although I did have to drop the speed down to 5.5. My cardiovascular system has taken a hit since I have not been running. I really did think I would be further along than I am by now. […]
Run Faster Vs Slower Pace
My latest physical therapy appointment was quite interesting. Dr. Rogers asked how things were going since I last saw her about three weeks ago. She was a little surprised that I was still having some pain around my knee – sometimes above, sometimes below, it just varies really – so she put me on the […]
How to Keep Running as We Age

The event was hosted by Skinny Raven Sports and the guest speakers were Dr. Tower, a local orthopedic doctor, and Dr. Rogers who is a physical therapist certified in sports injuries. I was really excited for this event because […]

Inconsistencies and a Plan For Progress
Wow, my injury diagnoses and leg pain are about as inconsistent as the Alaska weather. I woke up to a beautiful day with fresh snow on the mountains! It’s June in case anybody hasn’t noticed! Beautiful none the less. Then, I drove into Anchorage to work on my house. The weather was really nice, sunny, […]
Rainbows, Running, and Grandkids :)
There is a pot of gold at the end of the rainbow, but I would settle for a good pair of running shoes and magical rainbow dust that cures running injuries. Yep, that would be my pot of gold, my dream to run again which would allow me to run all those bucket list marathons. […]
Every Little Detail Matters
This has been a busy week and so very confusing at times. Of course if you read my last post, you will know that I have a new grand baby. A grand baby that I have not seen in a few days due to the fact that I am home with a pretty bad cold. […]
