Headed out a little after 6:00am while still dark out with the temperature around 42 degrees. My legs felt a little tight and it took longer to warm up than normal. Completed a nice, slow three miles as the sky started to lighten with the sunrise. Nothing super special today. Always grateful for another day….

RSD #1,691 & #1,692 She Run Half Marathon weekend
The run on Saturday afternoon was a light pace to preserve energy for the early morning half marathon on Sunday. Then played a little pickle ball on Saturday afternoon after my run. This morning was an early wake up call to prep for the half marathon. I started with a smoothie and banana. I don’t…
RSD #1,690 Early run, late post
Ran this morning then ran to work! I feel like I am running late most days and really need to push myself out the door earlier…it’s just so dark and cold. Today was a busy Friday and I am so grateful for the early run to begin my day with a win. Even if it…
RSD #1,689 Afternoon run then pickle ball
Cut out early from the office around 3:30pm to run in the sun again. Such beautiful days right now. Then headed to meet a friend who is teaching me to play pickle ball. Today was my third time and I am really starting to enjoy it! I was a tennis player for years so the…
RSD #1,688 Not creative today
Early run today around 7am with temps in the low 40’s. Easy pace to rest up for upcoming half marathon in four days. I am listening to a book from the Memory Man series with the main character named Amos Decker. I like to mix a few fun books in with the business/motivational books. This…
RSD #1,687 Sunny afternoon run
It was overcast and a little drizzly this morning so I packed up my running gear in hopes that the weather forecast would be correct and it would clear up this afternoon. Sure enough the sun came out and I changed into my running gear. I headed out from the office about 4:00pm for an…
RSD #1,686 The day after the tattoo
I waited until 24 hours after the tattoo was completed because that is how long I needed to wait to take a shower and change the bandage. See no shower equals no run before work. It was still a rainy and overcast day with a break from the rain this afternoon which was perfect. Weather…
RSD #1,685 – 10 miles and a tattoo!
The weather forecast was for light rain very early, then a break until afternoon. So I laced up and started my run around 9:00am. Nice overcast day with temps in the low 50’s…so perfect for a training run to get ready for the half marathon next week. Then the really big event of the day…
RSD #1,683 & #1,684 Getting back in the habit of writing these posts
Ran last night around 8:00pm in the dark and stayed on lighted sidewalks. Then woke early this morning and headed out again in the dark with the sky growing lighter as the sun rose. It was a little cooler this morning and the brisk air felt good. Overcast day with rain expected for tomorrow and…
RSD #1,682 Thursday thoughts
Brisk morning run with temps around 45 degrees and partly cloudy. Felt good today and gearing up for a long run this weekend to prep for an upcoming half marathon. I am listening to Your Next 5 Moves by Patrick Bet-David and really hadn’t hear much about it before starting. The first couple of chapters…
