What a day. I am exhausted. We were on the slopes snowboarding for at least 6 hours today plus another 2 miles or so of walking, all with about ten pounds of gear on and a snowboard in tow. If that doesn’t make up for a day without a run then forget screw...

I added distance to my run this morning! I still ran to the beach and back but took a few extra turns. It was such a warm sunny morning and my cold was kind enough not to put a damper on my Challenge progress. I was a little worried last night. I’m not sure...

I woke up this morning with a sore throat and burning sinuses. It was 7:45 and I had a 9am date to do Yoga with The Kahuna. My intention was to ride my bike the 2.7 miles to the beach apartment but that was just not happening. I danced with the idea of staying in...

Major challenge accomplishment for me today. The alarm went off at 6:23. I hit the snooze once but by 6:45 I was in sneakers and on the move. I went the same route as on Day 1. It was not my intention but I even shaved a few minutes off my time. The temperature...

Another successful challenge day. If you read my earlier post, I skipped the morning run for need of sleep, but intended to do some yoga as my day’s challenge activity. After work, and a food shop to fill our empty fridge, The All-Star and I walked a mile...

The alarm went off at 6:07 this morning and once again I hit the snooze. I continued to snooze until 6:50. No a.m. jog for me this morning, and that’s okay. I worked late last night and didn’t get to bed until after 11 and then woke up just before...

Here it is, Day 1. I realized last night that I was only mildly prepared but part of a challenge is facing the challenge and overcoming obstacles that may have been overlooked. So last night I set my alarm for 7:56 am, a modest time since car-pool doesn’t pick...

A new year and a new decade, for the calender as well as for myself. Today it’s official…I am30 years old! I can hardly believe it. I don’t feel any different, though the number itself is quite daunting. At the moment what I really feel is...

Year’s end is neither an end nor a beginning but a going on, with all the wisdom that experience can instill in us. ~Hal Borland The cliche of the New Year is upon us. December came and went being exactly what it always has been and January followed...

Well, I did it! Six whole nights by myself in the new apartment. Okay, so one night I slept at a friend’s and two nights I kept the dvd player running, but all the same, I made it! And I didn’t even hide under the blankets! Though, I have to admin that...
