Timex asked me to promote their sweepstakes to win one of these sex-ay devices.  I have nothing to do with the entries or drawing – you have to click on the image below for that.   The prizes are: GRAND PRIZE (1 WINNER): • Timex® will cover your 2011 race entry fees (up to $620), [...]

When I did my 140.6, lo those many months ago, I came out of that experience feeling like I could handle anything.  Not that I was so amazing – just that I had done the distance and if I wanted to go out and do a Half – no big deal! Last season I trained [...]

I don’t think I can make lemonade out of lemons quite they way Runner Susan can. She turned a 3 hour traffic jam, a full bladder and a missed race start into running an ultra marathon and getting a marathon medal but I digress.  My particular brand of lemons come in the form of non-running, [...]

1). Let me just apologize for the picture in my last post.  Those are just fluffy bits of lovely cotton, you know. I’m better – almost 100%!  I didn’t workout today but I also didn’t sleep.  I didn’t take any cold meds.  I am almost all better and so very grateful for that.  2).  Does [...]
