Enjoyed a much- needed recovery day today. Yesterday was brilliant! Lots of excitement on the morning of the run and fabulous weather. I realized quite early that I am not accustomed to running in such heat – in long black running tights and a black shirt… I was super warm and thirsty early. All in all, I’m very » Read More

So I was in a panic all week, essentially… and didn’t run at all. Frozen with fear perhaps? Well… Borden was away for work and L1 was busy with appointments and work as well and I thought about running on Tuesday, but it was rainy… and I thought about running Wednesday morning but then rolled over for another snooze » Read More

OMG – where has the time gone?! L1 sent me a little youtube video of Mayor Kelly training for the Bluenose Marathon (Mayor Training) and it totally sent me into panic mode. The run is NEXT WEEK???

Left town for another long weekend away – this time with a plane to catch, so missed my morning run/yoga routine. The guilt was killing me, so I bought Canadian Running magazine to read on the flight. (I know!!!) I was happy to see some local content and some great information and tips – also got into a » Read More

Sometimes I amaze myself. Borden and I decided that, in order to get in a decent run this week (around work and social commitments) it was going to have to happen in the morning (cue spooky music). The early morning. Before work. Ugh. So I’m up at 5:30 to cram one cuppa jo into me before a 6:30 pick-up and we’re » Read More

A new sign of my new-found commitment to this thing… headed away for a 4 day weekend out of town and did my running and yoga routine before hitting the road. Clearly I’ve been brainwashed! Read More

We headed for the hills this morning… the hills of Point Pleasant Park, that is… great to be running on a nicer surface than concrete or pavement and to be out of the wind and to have a new view… but let’s not mince words. Those hills are a bitch! The Climb Read More
