I got chikungunya and took a forced hiatus from the blog. I’m not quite back to normal. My body still feels like mush. My muscles are not as strong as they used to be. For this and other reasons I have made two important decisions about my running. 1. I deferred the San Juan divas …
The last two weeks have been rough on my body. TMI ALERT. The new thing that happens is that when I’m exposed to something that I’m sensitive to, like perfume or fabric softener, I get these crazy intestinal cramps. This has left me with a few days where I was in too much pain to …

I went for a run today! 4 miles and it felt mostly good. To celebrate I’m sharing my running playlist with you. It’s mostly girl power songs that really help keep me motivated during my run. 1. Let it go – Idina Menzel 2. Rolling in the deep – Adele 3. Livin’ on a prayer …
I didn’t run. I had a serious fibro flare up and learned to accept that fibro affects my mood. All this while being very busy growing my business. I still need to buy paper cups and get a foam roller. I did buy new shoes although it may take a while until they get here. …
Other than realizing that I have no idea where my good running shoes are this week went well. I swam a lot more. I was really surprised my endurance while swimming. To think I only learned to swim 10 years ago. Also is there any easy way I can figure out my mileage while swimming. …
