This week has been a bit challenging in regards to both diet and running. I am working a few more hours than usual plus my daughter moved out of my house in Anchorage that she had been renting (bought a home of her own…congrats to her!) and it needs some upgrades. It’s been a while […]
Happy New Year
Happy New Year! We had a great time ringing in the New Year. Scott and I headed downtown Anchorage for the festivities. We stopped in at Ginger’s for drinks and apps before heading to town center for the fireworks. We met up with Matt, Sonja, and the kids and had a blast! The kids, […]
The Chicago Marathon
I did it! I completed the Chicago Marathon! Before I get into the marathon, I have to say that the very best part of my Chicago Marathon experience was sharing it with Sonja (my daughter). I am so glad she was there with me and her support meant everything to me. She always seems to […]
Early Summer Family Fun
The highlight of this post is my handsome and very talented grandson. He is 10 years old (9 at the time of his test), and he tested for his 1st degree black belt in Tae Kwon Do. Getting his Black Belt is no easy feat. It is a lot of work, dedication, commitment, self-discipline, and […]
Running Update
From melting snow to blooming fireweed…..just like that. Time just goes by so fast it seems. But, lots of things have been happening during that time which is mostly really good, but some…well uh, not so good. So first the bad news….. My running was going great! I felt great! I was running about 30 […]
Base Training and Late Night Runs
This week I learned a couple of things about myself in regards to running. I typically do not run on the days that I work because I am so exhausted by the time I get home. I wake up at 5 am so I can be on my way to work by 6 am, and […]
Easter Week-end Family Fun
I had a great week of building my running base. But the best part of my week was hanging out over the Easter week-end with my family. I absolutely love, love, love it when they come over. I truly wish it was more often. We all just get so busy I guess. Maddy and Tylor […]
Training and Pacing
Such a busy week, I’m lucky to have even gotten my runs in. I am just continuing to build a base and for the most part taking my runs nice and easy. I don’t see any reason to push the pace until I have a good base established. But pace is definitely something to start […]
This Week’s Base Building
I have been saying that I don’t think that the Hansons Marathon Method would work for me being that it is a running schedule that consists of 6 days per week. But, as I started reading the book I was really inspired by this method. I was almost convinced that I could actually do it […]
A Week Of Just Fun Stuff
Fun things happening this week… I received my copy of Run Fast Eat Slow in the mail. I wanted to try one of the recipes right away so I chose Hearty Minestrone With Spicy Sausage and Beans. It was soooo good! I loved it! Instead of using the spicy Italian sausage, I used Moose chorizo that I […]
