Late last week, I got sick with a head cold. I can’t even tell you the last time I’ve been sick. It’s been a while. I attribute my healthy diet, running and managing stress to this immunity I’ve had. I guess that even the most healthy of us can’t fight off all of the yucky… Continue reading A challenging week
The week started off well, with a 3.5 mile run on Monday, speed work intervals on Tuesday, and another 3.5 mile run on Wednesday. Then on Thursday, we were supposed to get our taxes done and so I decided to make Thursday my rest day for the week. Thursday night, I didn’t feel well and… Continue reading Week 2 of Marathon Training
Bear with me, folks; I need to have a bragging moment. I have earned the following title: “World’s Okayest Runner” Don’t be jealous. I ran a lot of miles and set and achieved a lot of running goals to get to the level of Okayest. With a lot of blood, sweat and tears, you may also reach this… Continue reading Stop comparing yourself to others

Marathon training started with an easy 3-mile run. Tonight I’m doing 1:2 X… Continue reading Marathon training begins!
A snow day on Monday: Starting this series on Netflix: Watching this documentary (available on Netflix). The John Muir Trail has gone on my hiking bucket list! My book group’s February selection; I started it this week and can’t put it down! Veggie sandwich from a local coffee shop with a side of peppers for lunch… Continue reading Highlights – Week of 2/2/15
I’ve been reading a lot about philosophy and meditation, in particular about Jainism, which is an ancient religion from India that teaches that the way to liberation and bliss is to live a life of harmlessness and renunciation. In particular, Jains live a life of non-violence and try not to cause any harm to other… Continue reading Karma
This post might piss some people off or offend. My apologies in advance, but I just have to vent about something that has been weighing on my mind for some time. As a vegan, a runner, and someone who lives a pretty healthy lifestyle, I get this a lot from people: “I’d like to ______,… Continue reading You can’t or you won’t?
