"You’re in a slump. Put your kit on." Sal is standing in the bedroom holding my bibs.
I am laying on the big king bed holding my ugly doll with a pillow over my head: "I DONT WANT TO GO!"
That is only half true but I am throwing a tantrum so this has to be dramatic.
"Yes […]
I’ll admit it. I was mega-skeptical about this whole iron thing when it came up. It’s one of those things where one person tells you about something and then you start hearing it all over.
The iron buzz!! Get your iron checked! Everyone is doing it!
It all started last year when I met HG during ‘cross. […]
I have always complained about the way cycling is all-consuming. I complained about it in the beginning when I was a Cycling Widow and I will complain about it now that I am a Cycling Harlot.
It takes over everything. Everything.
The clothing - it must be constantly washed and cared for. The gear must be tuned, […]
My cousin asked me about this a little over a month ago when she was down with some really nasty cold/flu stuff.
"Should I run?"
I told her to stop and get better. Or, if she did want to get a few miles in just for sanity’s sake, to go someplace warm (a gym) and do them […]
I missed you. I missed you so much.
In the morning I woke up and thought about you. I wondered if you had watched the video and what you would think. I wondered what you were wearing… wait. I didn’t wonder that.
But I did miss you.
Analog Saturday was hard at first. I wanted to check my […]
I have often joked that I am surgically attached to my laptop. I love my laptop. I sometimes sleep with it on the nightstand next to me. All my precious work is in my laptop. All my little internets are in the laptop. When I go to bed, I tuck them in. I know they […]
Tony Horton is many things, but a yogi he is not.
(Aside: Tony Horton is the guy behind P90X, the program I am doing right now.)
As I’m watching his impressive legs move in his little tight yoga pants, I’m thinking more about the fact that he looks like a kid who is ready to watch Saturday […]
Ask anyone who knows me, and they’ll tell you that I like my beer. Specifically, I like it dark and strong. When I moved to Portland, it was like moving to the beer-lover’s wonderland. This place is wall to wall with absolutely stunning brews.
In San Francisco, I was more inclined to order a good glass […]
New Years is an awesome time. It’s a time when many people feel like they are getting a fresh start. A clean page. A blank slate.
It’s a new year! Full of possibilities! Full of potential! The sky is the limit! Anything can happen!
Indeed, this manic energy is catching. The electricity of so much hope and […]
I’ve always been a runner.
No really, I’m one of those people that can not run for ages and then just go out and do five miles - or six - whatever. It’s just sort of how I’m built. It’s in my blood. It’s like breathing to me… just part of how I make it through […]
