12 miles of hills = OUCH

It was the dreaded Rahling Road route for Saturday’s 12 mile run, I dread it, I don’t forget it and neither do my muscles.  I didn’t get home Friday night from St. Louis until almost 10pm, delays at the airport, frustrating since it’s only an hour flight, so I didn’t get into bed early and [...]

Coming Home, Yippee!!

Couple more hours and I’ll be heading to the airport, can’t wait, even though I hear it’s a little humid in Arkansas, I don’t care, I don’t have to come back to St. Louis next week!!
Kim and I have a 12 mile run in the morning at Rahling Road, it’s our hilliest route, she is [...]

Dreaded Dreadmill

Another dreaded dreadmill workout this morning, I just couldn’t wake up, maybe if I went to bed earlier?  Up at 4:38am, on the treadmill by 5:00am.  This was a miraculous workout today, the most miles ever for me on a treadmill, 5.82 in 1 hour, I was shocked.
Around mile 1.6 I was trying to figure [...]

Back in St. Louis

Another week in St. Louis, uneventful trip in yesterday, straight to the office by 9:00am.  I was able to leave the office pretty early, 5:15, we had an update go into the system at 5:00 pm so that meant everyone had to be completely out of the system, woohoo!  I was looking forward to a [...]

Slow Sunday Run

After a few good runs today was not so good.  Kim came over around 6:30am and ran 4 miles while I got ready for our 7 mile run, or that was our plan from yesterday.  I piddled around the house waiting on her to get back, I felt fine from our 10 mile run yesterday [...]

Back home to the Humidity

Made it back home last night and I have to say, whew, glad to be back, but boy is it HUMID!!  St. Louis was very stressful, the branch was very negative, it was hard to stay positive when so many people were been negative, constantly, maybe next week will be a little better, at least [...]

UGHH!! St. Louis

I’m in St. Louis this week and next on business, moving our Beta branches into a Live status, woohoo, it’s been terribly busy, some glitches to work through as usual, but all in all, no show stoppers.  I’ve been working till about 6:30 each night, not that late, just late enough that I don’t have [...]

Busy Week

I’ve been very busy this week with work, getting ready for a big ‘Go Live’ with new software next week so I’ll be in St. Louis for the next 2 weeks.
I went to my new Fitness Boot Camp class on Wednesday night, wow, she kicked my butt again, but it wasn’t as bad as Monday,  [...]

Running Solo

Today Kim was sick so I ended up running solo, this was twice this week I’ve run by myself, no fun. I just like running with someone better, but today probably was for the best, I wasn’t “feeling it”, the bad Cheryl was trying to talk runner Cheryl into taking a short cut home [...]

Monday Run – Days are getting shorter!!

I got up at 5:30am to start my 5 mile run at 6:00am, Kim is working this week and can’t join me for our traditional, Mon, Wed, Friday runs. It was still dark at 6:00 am, I looked on the weather channel and sunrise was at 6:36, boohoo, I hate that summer is coming [...]
