back in the office after flying in from Vancouver this morning! Super weekend spent with great friends! Totally loved the new Vancouver course - since I'm in taper, the goal for my half was just to have a supported run...but I felt good, and kept it 'comfortable' and ended up being 18seconds off my...

Getting back into this running thing.... again... Too many set-backs to be consistent these last few months. But.. when I get out there, I'm loving it! Yesterday I finally managed a decent run after 2wks of fighting a cold & cough. Today was a 5:30 a.m. swim & it was nice to be in the pool ...

Is it Monday already? Too bad, because it was a good weekend. We ran a 5km race on saturday because Bingerunner's student run club was participating in it. I got a 5km pb! (28:35 according to my watch) Sunday Binge ran the Police Service Half and I was a cheerleader. Yoga for me later in the day. Th...

Bingerunner is running. I'll be cheering. I'll look out for you.

Up early and ran 5km before work in foggy and humid conditions. Yoga after work.

Have a great Hump Day everyone!

Bingerunner is doing the half and we're both on a relay team as well. I'm doing the final leg of the relay. Maybe we could plan a get together at Boston Pizza on the Saturday night for anyone that is around and available.

Kicked my butt out of bed this morning for a 5km run. Yoga after work. Happy Monday all.

24 homemade egg mcmuffins made and in the freezer. They will be a nice quick breakfast. Tomorrow I'm going to make mini chicken pot pies in muffin tins that someone posted about in the NET. How did you cook the eggs? Is there a recipe posted somewhere? We cooked the eggs on our electric skillet. We...

After three weeks out sick I started to get back into things today. Oh, how things change with illness and drugs. Three weeks ago I ran a happy 14 miles. This morning I walked 30 minutes on the treadmill and then almost passed out in a 60 minute yoga class. FFS. That said, the day ended very well be...

Tell me more about the egg mcmuffins you make please. How do you cook the egg?

14 miles done. It is an absolutely gorgeous morning out there.

I really didn't feel like running after a tough day at work. But, a friend came over and we went for a good 4 mile run.

I can't wait to get home to run outside - KBO's post about Winnipeg's weather almost made me think about hopping on tomorrow's plane rather than waiting until next week when I go on leave!

Do it!

What a difference in just two days!! Sunday was a tough 11 mile slog through treacherous, icy conditions, while wearing winter gear. Today after work, capris and a t-shirt and a nice fast 5km on mostly clear sidewalks. And I saw geese and crows! Spring has sprung quite early in Winnipeg. I like it. ...

But I'm hungry now.

You'll survive buddy.

We do big cooks quite often. We're finding it a big help this year with Bingerunner commuting for work so far out of town. Some our staples include: - meatballs - good in spaghetti sauce, sweet & sour meatballs, or with mushroom sauce - chicken breasts - cut into strips, coooked and frozen - gre...

Long run this morning, 11 miles, but quite slow. It was a tough run and my legs felt like lead. Treacherous, icy footing and lots of jumping around to avoid puddles that didn't freeze up overnight. But, felt good when it was done. I'm looking forward to the snow and ice disappearing quickly over th...

I did my first tempo workout in a very, very, very long time today. Four miles on the track. Now I'm feeling it. Oy. First half of the season is two months out from today. It's time to get a bit more serious about training.

Quite a satisfactory result! I think you can chase down that sub 2 hr half, when the time is right.

You know how happy I am for you! You rock.
