Missing Running

It’s Sunday morning and it’s been 3 days since I’ve been able to run and I’m actually missing it. I’m not one who really likes to run, I just do it, as the Nike people say. I miss that feeling of accomplishment, like I’ve actually done something for the day, like I mowed [...]

I really did it this time Thursday

Since Thursday was to be my last night in Seattle I decided to do my run outside, it was about 65 degrees, a little windy and cloudy, but the temperature was great. I asked the concierge at the hotel for a good route as I wanted to run 3 miles or so, he suggested [...]

Dreaded Dreadmill

I hate the treadmill and since I’m in Seattle working and have to be at the office at 8am I decided I would get up at 5am and run outside by myself for 3 miles, well, when I got up it was about 48 degrees, foggy and very dark and I’m a chicken. So [...]

What the Funk?

What the hell, people, airplanes, do us all a favor, wash. Please. The airplane I was on today smelled as bad as any port-a-potty I’ve been in, what the hell is up with that? I mean early in the flight, it was a 4 hour flight and within the first hour that thing [...]

Tuesday Travels

I’m in the D concourse of the DFW airport, wow, how exciting, I’m so not looking forward to this 4 hour flight to Seattle. I didn’t get to bed early last night and I woke up about 3:30am, 40 minutes early. Nothing exciting happened at the Little rock airport, same boring place as [...]

Tuesday Run

Well, we did get to run on Tuesday, I met Annette at 6pm at the community center and we started a new loop, we just kept running and made a loop which Thank God came back to the community center about 2.5 miles into our run, I was about to poop my britches, I don’t [...]

Will I get a run in today or not?

The rain has started and I’m not sure if I will get my run in today or not, I need to run 3 miles today for sure since I’ll be in transit to Seattle most of the day tomorrow and I’ll be pooped tomorrow evening. Annette and I planned on meeting at 6pm at [...]

Monday are you kidding me?

Can you believe it’s Monday morning already? I woke up about an hour before my alarm went off with my bladder about to explode, so no matter which way I turned I could not avoid getting up, once I’m up it’s difficult for me to go back to sleep. I started thinking about [...]

MacArthur Park Run September 22

This was the first official day of the Little Rock Marathon Training, we met at the Arts Center at 6am for a 6 mile run. One of my best friends Annette came with me and I always have much better runs when she’s with me. I hate it when either Annette or Kim [...]
