A Back-to-Summer BOOMERANG



 To sum up this week in one word: Wowza! 

This week pretty much had it all. The weather felt like I’d gone back in time, and woke up in mid-June (no complaints!). The running felt incredible (and has me feeling good going into taper week). Finally, the freaky bruising has substantially faded from my unassuming eyes and face (check out last week’s WRD for more info).

Dodging the Deluge


Rain, rain, and still more rain! What a reality!

This week, thankfully, had some prime opportunities to dance around the rainfall. There also were a few moments of  sunshine! The temps were more late-summer-like, so the weather conditions were a lot more to my liking.

A Hot Beverage & Chatter Gathering


Here we are, entering October.

As with each new month, I’m dumbfounded by how quickly the previous month has flown by. It seems like it was just a few days ago I was embarking on a relaxing 3-day Labor Day weekend.   

Nonetheless, the new month signifies the monthly gathering around our virtual table for some virtual coffee talk. It’s always fun getting together and chatting as we sip our beverages of choice (mine is a Hazelnut Cappuccino).

…and it’s STILL RAINING


Can you say, “RAIN!”

We’ve had an abundance of the wet stuff, which continued through most of the week. It was a true test of my commitment to the #OptOutside streak (which is sitting at Day-2,097 as this post goes to press). 

Thankfully, I was able to dance around the intermittent rainfall, and get outside on the daily. I also utilized my indoor options, also on the daily, to keep sane. 

We do what we gotta do!

Runfessing amidst the Rain


Here we go!

It’s time to hit the ‘Fessional before September washes away and October makes its grand arrival. There’s been plenty happening, and there’s a good number of ‘fessions to bring forward. 

Care to join me?

Damp & Dreary; Not the Least Bit Weary


Rain, rain, and more rain.

Last week’s 7-day forecast looked damp, and it wasn’t too far off. Not only were we blessed with almost daily precip, we also had plenty of humidity during the “dry” periods between the rainfall. To coin what should be a patented mantra, at least it wasn't snowing.

A Not-So-Normal Week



Talk about your out-of-the-ordinary weeks!

The fitness remained on-track, thankfully , but there were several instances of non-routine variables mixed-in to this week’s routine. Although I had to get a little creative, and utilize some flexibility with my schedule, all went off without a hitch.

 After all, it’s not a bad thing to deviate from the norm once in awhile…
