ain't nobody got time for sitting still
When the idea of a Peck family weekend getaway was first proposed, it was back in August as a way to celebrate Tim's dad's 70th birthday. Life had other plans for that time though, so it was postponed for a few months. This past weekend was our make-up weekend, and boy, did it turn out... Continue Reading →
Since this is just a continuation of my last post (and it's long enough as it is), I see no need to bore you with any sort of intro (you're welcome). So, let's get to it... MAY: May involved a lot (for me) of running (20/31 days! who even am was I??), including a couple... Continue Reading →
Once I registered for the Wapack Trail Race a little over a week ago, I decided that I would try to finally commit to a training plan despite how unrealistic I tend to find them. A quick Google search last Monday morning informed me that there appears to be no such thing as a training... Continue Reading →
My grandmother politely informed me yesterday that it had been a while since my last post. (My apologies to anyone else out there who cares as much as Nana does.) So this post is mostly for her, and partly to convince myself that even though I felt pretty lazy most of the month, I really... Continue Reading →
Remember that time I was whining about having two rest days in a row a couple of weeks ago? Well, I did it again last week. And then finished the week off with a third lazy day. And I hated myself for it. As if I need any help making excuses for my behavior (I don't;... Continue Reading →

Maybe that's how runners, climbers, and other outdoor enthusiasts roll and I just never noticed until now. Regardless, I like it. Things I'm good at: reflecting. Things... Continue Reading →
We went back to Tim's beloved "Stash" today, and it was a perfect way to kick off the new year. Since my last post was so long, I'll give you a break this time and just let the pictures and video speak for themselves.
Despite the fact that I hate trudging through the snow in snowboard boots and snowshoes (as you learned last Thursday), I willingly chose to do it again Friday morning. Tim was meeting Doug, Mickey Spades, and Luke at his favorite local place for some backcountry action--a place he affectionately refers to as "The Stash"--and invited me... Continue Reading →
It finally snowed! Like, for real! (If you got snow too, you can thank/blame Tim...yesterday was his birthday and I'm pretty sure this is what he was wishing for.) We got somewhere between 6 and 8 inches overnight, which obviously meant I needed to do two things this morning: One, bring Booker outside to see... Continue Reading →
