It’s December already…

New totals: Since October 20: 50.31 milesSince April 10: 144.72 I’m currently 10 miles away from Nike Level Green, which I’m pretty excited about. Today’s run was a comedy of errors. First, it’s only like 40 degrees outside. It was really, really cold. Stephen loves me and bought me a beanie and mittens (not gloves […]

Exciting Stuff

Exciting things have been happening on both of the major fronts that I write about: Wedding: -We got our amazing engagement pictures in! Oh, they are so great and I love them so much! They can be seen here: Charlotte Geary Online Gallery-I tried on my dress with my slip and shoes and it was […]

The way you walk, way you talk, way you say my name It’s beautiful, wonderful, don’t you ever change

After taking off Thursday-Monday from running (in part because I was in Colorado Fri-Sun), I wasn’t sure how today’s run was going to go.

It’s a love story, baby just say yes…

So I have gone out walking/running 6 of the last 10 days and am feeling really good about it. I am making some progress in being able to run more. Between Sunday’s run and Tuesday’s run I shaved a whole minute off my mile time by running just a little bit more on each lap. […]

On Running…

Nike was nice enough to give me the above certificate for (finally) going over 100 miles since I started using my Nike+ Sensor. It took 43 runs to get there, but I made it. Today was a 2.03 mile run (my 44th total). The park I run at is just beautiful right now. The trees […]
