Last weekend I somehow stumbled upon a post on CNN about tricks parents told their kids to get them to eat certain foods. Ok… they used the word “lies” … but “tricks” to me sounds at least semi-honest. The actual post had some funny stuff (“Brussle sprouts will make you grow hair on [...]
The internet gods are working against me. WordPress would NOT let me log in for the life of me last night, and this morning, every page loaded is a serious struggle! Anyway, due to said malfunctions, yesterday’s intended-light-hearted post has been postponed. Instead, I feel like it’s finally time to share some good news with [...]
Goodness. Gracious!! How many attempts at posting does it take to say “I have a stress fracture.” ??
Well I can count two written and non-posted novels… but more importantly, it’s been almost TWO WEEKS since the Kayak Theory! Ugggh. Not giving an excuse. Just, ugggh.
In the last 13 days, I have:
Had a 9:15 pm [...]
This has been on the “to post” list for quite some time now. However, as I was swimming the other day in one of my injuries-suck-shopping-make-me-feel-better new swimsuits, I realized it never actually was posted!!
The Kayak Theory….
Go ahead on the right hand side and type “kayak” in my search Where Do I Find? Bar. (Or [...]
Sorry for the unexcused absence mis amigos! This last week has been full of settling into my new digs, work, and lots of swimming and biking. This following post will explain why. Although a little lengthy… I hope you’ll stick it out with me and read to the end – it’s a subject that’s pretty [...]

Like I mentioned before, el chico and I packed up and headed out on a camping trip on Friday morning. Accompanying us was el hermano del chico, along with a handful of my boyfriend’s buddies. This trip was for his birthday, and I’m pretty [...]
Hey there! T – 3 hours until camping kick off. AHHH I am so excited!
I wanted to make sure and get this posted before my friends all heal, rendering all of my expertise useless. [UN]fortunately though, there will always be an injured runner out there, so I hope at least one person can [...]
Um, wait. No… I really don’t. (Unless it’s on the dance floor. ) But that’s what I’m doing my friends…
In between packing race bags, packing for ‘outta town, and packing up to-go orders at the restaurant, I’m packing up my life in many little boxes and getting ready to move. If you are [...]
Currently: Sitting at coffee shop. With el chico. In front of fire place. Feet up. Still in desperate need of compression/recovery socks. Other-than-that, SOLID.
Gonna let the photos do the talking here – I’m pretty much all talked-out for today. Essentially, I had a less than stellar race today: I couldn’t feel my feet [...]
I’m sure you’ve heard it before… TWO nights before the race is the most critical time for getting good sleep. Be it that I’m racing TOMORROW, I wanted to make sure last night was extra solid. The following precautions were taken:
I OD’ed on Hershey’s Special Dark Pieces. And that’s coming from a chick who really [...]
