It was another beautiful desert trail run this morning. The weather is perfect and I am grateful the heat hasn’t hit yet. Looks like a few more weeks of 80 and 90 degree weather before we hit triple digits. I will take it! I felt good on the run and am feeling stronger so will…

It is exciting to be closing in on the 5 year mark. I will celebrate early while in San Diego for the Rock-n-Roll Half Marathon on June 4th. Then the next day, June 5th, will be the 5th anniversary of my run streak. How long can I continue? How long will I continue to want…
RSD #1,795 Internal Programming
I had a glorious run this morning on the desert trail in 60 degree weather. This just can’t be beat! Pace picked up slightly again today and I feel stronger which excites me and I will getting some longer runs in soon. Today’s run had me thinking about some internal programming that I have about…
RSD #1,794 Forgot my airpods
I rushed out the door without my airpods this morning so no book to listen to. Not a bad thing to be in my own head for 30 minutes. At this stage in my life I think a lot about the next phase of my life, what I want to accomplish still, and the impact…
RSD #1,793 One Last One More
I finished listening to The Power of One More by Ed Mylett again today. The final chapter is by far the best and most motivating part of the book. It leaves you wondering where you can add one last one more philosophy into your life. I can apply it to my run streak. So many…
RSD #1,791 & 1,792 Stomach issues
So stomach issues are not fun when on a run. This morning I didn’t feel right when I stepped out the door so I went back in for a little while. Since it is Tuesday and a work day I needed to get the run done and get on with my day. I got a…
RSD #1,790 Desert Trail Run
Beautiful Sunday morning out in the desert. I am pet/house sitting for a friend in a rural area which takes me out on the dirt and sand. It is a welcome change and this will be a good place to push myself to pick up the pace. The run is an out and back so,…
RSD #1,786 – 1,789 Keep going
For some reason my pace isn’t recovering. The weather is still beautiful although getting warmer. Nothing super special about these runs. Just happy I am getting out there on a regular schedule and having fun! Run happy!
RSD #1,782 – 1,785 Just say no
I got derailed from my daily routine and started to lose focus due to some personal distractions. The running saves me. It brings me back to center. It is where I have the conversations with myself about what I really want in my life. Setting new standards and boundaries sounds easy until you are tested….
RSD #1,780 & 1,781 Mom’s 80th
