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. […]
It’s a Girl!!
We have a baby girl! Charolette Joyce – “Charlie” 7# 3 oz 19.5″ We are so excited that she is finally here- 39 weeks and 4 days. We did not know the sex of the baby until she was born. I initially talked about her like she was going to be a girl, […]
I Will Run Again….eventually
With all of these running injuries, how do you know even where to begin? I don’t even want to begin until I can figure out what is the underlying cause. Once this injury heals (if it ever does), I hope I will have figured out what needs to happen to prevent running injuries in the […]
Is Running Rewired the Cure?
Running is touted as an easy sport. Just a pair of running shoes and one foot in front of the other is all that is really required. This way of thinking has rung true for me for many years. Running for the most part has been easy. What has made it more difficult for me […]
Running Injury, Dry Needling, and Cupping
Having a running injury that doesn’t appear to be getting that much better really is tough. I know I need to have more patience, but that is so hard when all I really want to do is run. 4-6 weeks is what I was told. Could be longer. I consulted the calendar to see how […]
Boston Marathon BQ Training on Hold
Wow, congrats to Des Linden on winning the Boston Marathon in such grueling conditions. There hasn’t been an American female winner of the Boston Marathon since 1985!! She looked so strong during those last miles. She was so exciting to watch, and I am so glad I didn’t miss it. I love this photo by […]
Motivation to run (or lack thereof) and Celebrating my Mother’s 85th Birthday!
It’s amazing how quickly a perfectly well planned out running schedule can turn into days of no running! And what is even more amazing is how those days can turn into weeks and then, before you know it, a MONTH has gone by. But….this is how it all happened. Excuses???? Maybe….but legit to some extent. […]
Running and Icy Roads
This week didn’t exactly go as I had hoped. My plan was to continue running easy miles towards building a base before starting Hal Higdon’s 12 week spring training program. That program would lead right into the start of marathon training. But….icy road conditions pretty much kept me from running most of the week. Some […]
