ain't nobody got time for sitting still
"Wow, you look better on your skis today than you did all last season," my ever-so-charming husband said to me after our first run one day last month. It was an awkward compliment, but I couldn't argue with him. While I did eventually get to a point where I could make it from the top... Continue Reading →
As usual, I've let things go far too long without writing about them. And, as usual, I've made an unofficial "resolution" to revive this site and write more regularly. We'll see how long that actually lasts. (As usual.) Much like the last time I did a life update post, I'll do my best to not... Continue Reading →
As I look out my window and watch it rain instead of snow for what seems like the 100th time this winter, it's hard to not feel a little sad. Maybe it seems worse than it really is because I'm comparing it to last year's epically snowy winter instead of a "normal" winter. And maybe... Continue Reading →
Oh hey. I'm sure by now you've forgotten all about me and my silly little blog, just hiding over here in our corner of the internet. Sorry about just disappearing like that. Evidently this rut I've fallen into is both all-encompassing and bottomless. Not only have I not been writing for the past few months,... 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.

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 →
Ugh. I accidentally took two rest days in a row this week, which is something I: a) hadn't done in a while, and b) was really hoping to avoid in 2013. Also, it always makes me feel really shitty about myself, even though deep down I would really much rather be a lazy blob--who eats... Continue Reading →
The trend this year seems to be less focused on "resolutions" and more focused on "reflections." Or that's at least how it seems amongst the blogs I read. 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 →
