I don’t want to sound like an asshole, but lately these posts have been harder to write because I had trouble finding lows. Thankfully running regularly again after a few months of no running took care of that problem.
High workout of the week: MY BIKE COMMUTE! Sorry, but I had to scream this one. [...]
Last night I had insomnia and I found myself wanting to blog for the first time in a while. I’m not sure if anyone out there is still reading – but I think moving forward I will blog every now and then, especially after races. After all, I’m not sure if I would still be [...]
Week one in Denver has been pretty friggin’ awesome. I’ve had fun with friends (so happy that fellow former DC blogger Lauren is here!),
explored parks and the biggest dog park you have ever seen,
and started a fun, new job. It has a completely different culture than my old company, in all the [...]
Right now I’m sitting in a hotel room in Dallas, TX. I’ve been to three cities in three days, which have included 12 hour + work days.
A few things I’ve learned from this whirlwind week:
Trail runs in the dark are a terrible idea. Neil and I decided to hit the trails early Tuesday [...]
One of the reasons I haven’t been blogging as much lately is because I’ve been a big ball of stress lately. And I’m sure you don’t want to hear me b*tch about it. Or do you? I’ll go with yes then
I’m managing a particularly stressful project at work (which, might I add I [...]
I’m still swamped at work, which is why I have been posting so rarely. After a long, stressful day I don’t want to get anywhere near a computer feel as inspired to write. My big deliverable is due Tuesday, so hopefully things will be back to normal by then. The good news is that, [...]
This week did not go according to plan AT ALL.
It started with late night focus groups on Tuesday. Add in a very busy work week, a lost bike lock, and one night of insomnia and my workout (and blogging) schedule was royally screwed.
Today I am heading up to NYC and Long [...]
I’ve had a busy few days, but they’ve been filled with mostly good things. First up, a blogger meet-up at a Nationals game. Thanks to Amanda for organizing (and for getting us covered seats, which were clutch when it rained). It was fun to catch up with old friends and make new ones. (And thank [...]
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. I love running in new cities. You get new scenery (no boredom) and you can efficiently see the sights.
I’m in work for Los Angeles until tomorrow. Yesterday I only had about two hours of downtime, so I ran on the treadmill for 40 minutes and [...]
I’ve been having some trouble sleeping lately because of work-related anxiety on the mind, so hopefully today’s combination of activities will kill that stress.
This morning I went to my second Stroga class – this time it was Power Yoga. I liked that it was fast-paced, worked my muscles and only 50 minutes long. Sometimes [...]
