New Running Schedule Feels So Weird
New Running Schedule Feels So Weird
Last week, I finally acknowledged that I needed to shift my running schedule. I have to go into the office earlier than normal for a regular meeting on Thursdays, making it near impossible to run in the morning… Which is the only chance I have. My former schedule was M-W-Th, then Saturday and Sunday. Now, it’s M-Tu-W, then Friday and Saturday. Just a small, itty-bitty one-day shift. Yesterday was…

Managing My Alarms
I use my phone for all of my alarms now – mornings, naps… everything. Recently, I was pondering how that shift came about and subsequently summarized the progression… Because that’s what I do. It all started when I got my FitBit. That was a while back, but my FitBit didn’t require much time to charge and it “monitored” my sleep so I kept it on. It also had this wonderful feature called a silent…

Rainy Day Ramblings
I need a good name for my war with the common cold. My sore throat is back and it’s really frustrating. This has been off and on since the holidays – The Sore Throat Slog. On top of that, it’s raining a lot. That’s actually a good problem to have since California has been in a drought for such a long time, but it is a little de-motivational for me in terms of running… So… This morning, I could…

Travel - Ugh! Am I right?
Travel – Ugh! Am I right?
Today I traveled from San Francisco to Miami… Quite the slug since I had to get up at 3:30am… I am in Miami for a business conference, which is cool. I just hate the travel part. And, apparently, I need to fly domestically more because when I got to Miami, I kept thinking I should be in a different country. Or, maybe that was because I was so tired. Ramblings from today: Flight #1 I left home…

I wasn’t sure I was up for it today, but I had a good run. I was pleasantly surprised given my level of anxiety about my training. (I had been sick and wasn’t sure I had trained enough.)
I ran the San Francisco Hot Chocolate 15k this morning. I got there early… Too early. I had an hour before the race and pretty much only needed fifteen minutes. Oh well. Better safe than sorry…
The run was pretty flat, but on the way closer to the finish line, there was a small incline that I started to think wouldn’t end. It was wearing at me a bit toward the end – I was getting a little tired. Then, it finally ended. Finally! Pretty much as the race ended. Got my cutesy finisher medal and then everyone got hot chocolate and snacks. With chocolate sauce for dipping. Maybe too much chocolate. I ended up dumping most of it out. I tried to dip some of my banana in the chocolate for my son, but I managed to drop it on the ground. Parenting fail! He survived.
Before the run, my hubby and son called me via FaceTime. Soooo cute – apparently my boo woke up and was unhappy that mommy wasn’t at home. It was also nice to see my hubby and son after the race. I managed to lose my banana again! Good times! :)
Whew! A Good 15k Today! I wasn't sure I was up for it today, but I had a good run. I was pleasantly surprised given my level of anxiety about my training.
Race Mind Games
I am running a 15k tomorrow. It’s the Hot Chocolate run in San Francisco and it helps out the Ronald McDonald House, which is an amazing organization helping provide a place to stay for families who need to be close to their children while they undergo critical medical care. I was sick over the holidays but I made my training runs – I had to cute my 9-mile run down to a 7-mile run, but that’s ok.…
