So I promised I would give you all a recap of the race. And as I sit down to write a report on how food determined the social roles in Renaissance England, suddenly I received an unsuppressable urge to tell everyone in the blogosphere how my race went. So here we go. I left you… Read More…
Race Recap pending..
So apparently running a 50 K race is not idea with a torn ligament. I will be back with a full recap, but I will leave you with this: It’s blurry but it is a perfect representation of the sadism of the race. Me at the finish line with my family. It was emotional as… Read More…
Race Prep
So last night, I arrived home and the mail fairy had been at my house. Angela hooked me up with some free stuff from Silver Hills Bakery. I got a cute little t-shirt, stickers and 5 coupons for a free loaf of their bread. I am even more excited because it is sprouted whole grain… Read More…
Fanny packs and knee highs
I think every runner has an allegiance to a certain running store. Well, at least I have an allegiance to a certain running store. Indeed. Runner’s Choice is MY choice. I sound like a bad infomercial, but there is a reason behind this proclamation of adoration. Today, I walked into the store from the pouring… Read More…
This is your life.
This week, my sister flew out to Utah to an anorexic treatment centre and obviously the topic is weighing heavily on my mind. I realise it is different from the normal tone of the blog, but eating disorders are a reality everywhere – even for runners. I wish that I could sit down with everyone… Read More…
Race Recap: A Midsummer Night’s Run
This was the hardest race I have run to date. This one, that is. 2:34 hours of 30 KM of city streets and trails by the lake. I heard about it from a co-worker and decided to give it a go as a stepping stone before my 50 K. Probably wise, considering my longest race… Read More…
Why I Run
I am beginning a segment on my blog called “Why I Run” because there are so many reasons to why I do it and they continue to accumulate. I am going to start with something quite dear to my heart. I wish I could say it was my health, the social network or the challenge… Read More…
Race Recap: 5 Peaks
I love the anticipation that precedes a race: rising before the sun, swallowing coffee, lacing shoes, the starting line, the nonchalant veterans and nervous beginners, that extra trip to the toilets…just to be sure. When you really think about it, a race should be a miserable thing. You are up before your brain is fully… Read More…
My Lifestyle
I have always been slightly envious of my sister. She is beautiful, strong, smart and healthy- and she has never, ever mistreated her body and only treated it with care. She has always eaten exactly what she wants, but remains active and healthy. I, on the other hand, have not always treated my body with… Read More…
Hello world!
I am grappling with what to begin saying about myself that can possibly be worth saying. What is the most important thing for someone to know about me? And why blog if there is nothing? I will tell you. Every one does sensational things in their lives, but it is those in-between moments that really fill up… Read More…
