Tidbits from the Long Run

September 9, 2012

Today is a Rest Day, and after the past week, I had hoped to be able to sleep in and get up just before the first football game. You see, this past week I forced myself to get back to early morning running. I used to be that person who was up at 5 am [...]

I Run To Be…

October 18, 2011

I run to be….sore?! I did not expect to be this sore after Nike. Yes it’s the hardest half course I’ve ever run. Yes, the hills were endless. But I did not run very hard for the majority of the race so needless to say, I am surprised, disappointed and a little freaked out about [...]

All Kinds of Sore

August 4, 2011

I think I may have felt more sore and exhausted after Sunday’s half-marathon than after the full marathon I ran in May – seriously, no joke. I was all kinds of sore – feet (blisters!), hamstrings and especially quads. The San Francisco hills were not nice to me. Since I’m a member at Massage Envy, [...]

Lazy

April 19, 2011

Workout: AM: Spin / Core PM: Laziness I was supposed to go to yoga tonight, but I had a terrible headache after work and just couldn’t bring myself to go. Instead, I came home, ordered Chinese takeout (only because they delivered), then plopped on the couch to watch a Tim Lincecum special (10 K’s! – [...]
