Doggie Day

April 21, 2010

Tweet The dogs thought that today was a fantastic day.  I took the dogs to the Soos Creek Trail and we did 4 miles.  This time I went the other way on the trail (toward Renton) and it felt very different, much shadier and the trees much closer to the trail and having to cross […]

Another Monday

April 19, 2010

Mother Nature is a B*tch

April 16, 2010

Tweet Mother Nature really likes to screw with me.  My first 5k race back in January, oh yeah it was that time of the month, nice.  Today I really wanted a nice relaxing 2 mile run, no chance.  A bit less than half a mile in I got killer cramps, I kept going to the […]

Why can’t it always be easy?

April 15, 2010

Tweet Workouts were a struggle today, I felt weak on the bowflex <sigh>  I went out for my run, a 2 miler and that was okay, not great but I got through it, I had already planned to only do one set for each of the muscle groups on the bowflex.  I’m glad I made […]
