There is something very satisfying about hitting a goal. I had a race each of the last three Sundays, all different distances. I didn’t put a lot of thought into my times for the first two. The first was the Army ten miler. After quickly doing some math (more or less to tell Anne when […]

My dog is big. When we adopted him, he was a measly 35 pounds at 5 months. I expected him to grow as an adult to approximately double that. When people say how big Matthew is getting… It’s a nice compliment about how much he is growing – starting to look like a little boy, […]

Less than a year ago it was a struggle for me to run a single mile without stopping. Yesterday, I ran 13.1 miles. Only stopping briefly to sip guzzle water and gatorade, since I haven’t quite managed how to run and drink at the same time. The Parks Half Marathon was my first, but it surely won’t be my […]

It’s hard to stay motivated, at least for me it is. Some people just have it in their DNA. Perhaps I could break it down to the simplest of things. Every morning when the alarm goes off, I have to hit snooze (more than once). On the other hand, or in this case, the other side of […]

It came. It went. I turned 40. I had this idea. It was vague. I did not know what to expect, but I expected something. I guess I thought I would just feel different. Perhaps I was over thinking it. I had spent the better part of a year focused on hitting a goal by […]

Well, at least I’m back. Not sure about the better than ever. I guess that will really be for you, the reader, to decide. I never planned on not writing. It just seemed there were other things that were taking priority. And no, I am not talking about watching The Bachelor Pad. What a show, what […]

I’m dissapointed in myself. It’s not the first time, and I am certain it won’t be the last. For over 10 months I have been extremely focused on July 10th, 2012. I had a goal to reach and a plan in place. I ran in my second 10K on Memorial Day. It was hot and hilly. […]

I could imagine myself twisting my ankle. I could imagine myself pulling a hamstring. I could even imagine myself falling and hurting my wrist or hand somehow. However, the one “injury” I would have never thought I would have to deal with is… the bloody nipple. Yeah, I am putting it out there. My nips […]

What a way to start the weekend. Sure, I was working on a Saturday. But after coming across an article on The Perfect Man on msn, all felt right in the universe. I have always joked that I married up. Perhaps it’s the other way around! Who knew that I posessed 23 of the 30 characteristics […]

Without a doubt this is the hardest thing I have ever done. It’s simple, but it sure isn’t easy. Being consistent at anything is tough. Well, besides being consistenly lazy… I sure seemed to have that one down. It’s been invigorating over the last week receiving over a dozen positive comments about my weight loss. […]
