End Week Nine
I am a biathlete. I ran 3.5 miles this morning and then Ben and I went for a bike ride this afternoon. I took a shower and moved my arms about a bit. Like swimming! Does that make me a triathlete? Anyway. Another week down. I ran 10 miles on the CHaD course on Friday […]

End Week Eight + Diatribe
Nothing much new to add this week, but will include a rambling rant at the end. Didn’t do a long run this week, felt too in the vacation state of mind to excert myself. Who am I kidding? I did excert myself by running or cycling most days last week while on vacation. I am a […]

End Week Seven
A late entry. On vacation in Maine this week and have lost all sense of time. Have been running on the trails on the island where we are staying. It’s a lot of back and forth, out and back, but with the company of Steve Runner (Pheddipidations podcaster) it’s bearable. Ben and I did a […]

End Week Six
Sunny day, hot but less humid. Ended week with a 10 miler on the CHaD course this morning. Thank goodness for fuel belts! Sipped when I was thirsty, had plenty of water and a bag of sport jelly beans post run. Felt good afterwards. Had thought I was only doing 9, but again, I over […]

Prouty Numbers
Just got some figures from Saturday – more than 4500 people either walk or rode in the event and so far, the event raised $2.18 million dollars for cancer research and patient services at Norris Cotton Cancer Center. Not bad for an event in a small New Hampshire town! While it drew people from all […]

End Week Five
Short post. I wrote a longer Prouty review post that you can check out. Felt great after the 50-mile ride. On Sunday, went for a jog around Lake Morey while Ben rode his bike around, then met up with me and rode alongside me. Ran to Whippi Dip to get ice cream after. Now THAT’S motivation! […]

Prouty On!
Included are pics from our Prouty Day. There are also video commentaries that Ben will include at some point. As seen by the alarm clock photo, we were up early on Saturday. Woke up to rain and it rained pretty much our entire ride so we weren’t able to bring our phones for photos or […]

P minus one day and counting…
Come rain, thunder and lightning, wind. We will be there. Ok, maybe hiding under an awning until the worst of the weather passes us by, but we will still be there. Tomorrow morning we will be rising early and hitting the road in the early morning hours to turn our bums into hamburger. All for […]

End Week Four
Too hot to write much. Brain cells melting. Rode bike home from work on Friday. Numb bum. Prouty this Saturday. Will have numb bum to the extreme…all for a good cause. Need to start building long runs again. Sitting in darkened room, sipping margarita made with fresh lime and lemon juice. Ahhh. Keep cool, Amy

End Week Three, CHaD (and 10 in 10 update)
So ends another week. Back from CA. Wonderful vacation and feel rested for another week at work. One month until next vacation in Maine. Stuck pretty well to eating good. Except for the beer and vino (which flowed copiously), we ate pretty healthy and didn’t snack much. I am having difficult time tracking weight consistently […]
