2011 Was A Good Year

2011 Was A Good Year

Earlier this month, when I first started thinking about 2011, all I could think about was the 2 DNF’s I had this year. And then I didn’t want to reflect upon the year anymore. But I’ve had a lot of downtime during this week’s staycation, looked beyond those 2 unfortunate incidents and found that there [...]

Weeks 37, 38, 39

I guess I fell off the wagon of my weekly recaps again. My motto always used to be, “I don’t do Sundays…” meaning, I needed a whole day of doing nothing to psych myself up for upcoming the work week, but lately my Sunday’s (and pretty much every other day of the week) have been [...]

The Giant Race 2011

This weekend 2 favorites of mine converged – running and baseball = The Giant Race. Here’s how the weekend went. Friday ART I visited my chiro for an ART session.

This Week

TGIF! It’s Friday afternoon and I can hardly believe that I survived the week. The week started off with hours spent at the County courthouse for Jury Duty. Yes, JURY DUTY.

Last night I went to only my third SF Giants game of the season. And I just realized that this is my first G’s post of the 2011 season. How can that be? Back in April, I went to the season opener (first home game since winning the World Series) and Opening Night (the night [...]

A Tour Through San Francisco

Workout: 19-mile run In thinking about where I wanted to run this 19-miler, I considered a few different trails. But really, a trail can only be so good for so many miles. And with the temperatures climbing considerably last week, I decided the City would be the best place to run. I have felt an [...]

Vacation Miles

As I sat by the pool for 5+ hours on Friday, I kept thinking about the 15-miler I had scheduled on Saturday. I hadn’t been eating very well (I mean, I was on vacation!) and I knew I also hadn’t been drinking enough fluids. Sitting in the sun didn’t help that either. So after lunch [...]

Scottsdale, Day 1

Hello from the desert! We arrived late last evening and picked up our powder blue Crown Victoria car rental which told us it was 91 degrees outside at 9 pm. :/ We headed straight to my aunt’s home in the West Valley where my folks are staying (they happen to be coincidentally visiting at the [...]
