Beautiful, chilly long run this morning. 13.2 miles in the can. Seattle has been having a rare dry spell for a few weeks. As much as I enjoy the sun, we could really use some fresh snow in the mountains. #MarathonTraining #Run #Runner #Running

Cold, foggy, beautiful long run this morning!

Showing up is half the challenge, getting it done is the other half. I classify today’s #Run as a character builder. Dark, 38F and steady rain was really sucky. But I did it. And I hit my paces - and lots of puddles. Most importantly, I feel great!

TGIF!

A view of Seattle during my early-morning #run.

Got in a great workout with a solid 20 mins at BQ pace 🏃🏼‍♀️🏃🏼‍♀️

Beautiful day on the slopes. First day in the mountains this season with my boys. Loved every minute of it.

A view over Lake Washington toward Seattle. Taken on the last #run of 2024.

Mother Nature sure can be cranky. This giant fir tree went kaboom during Seattle’s Bomb Cyclone last month. Saw it on my #run this morning

Asked ChatGPT to show me the traditional flight path from NYC to Tokyo.

I have no words.

Listening to Techno Classical while baking Christmas cookies is totally normal.

I schedule my #coffee to be brewed by the time I wake up, because I’m smart like that.

While I cleaned out the basket yday, filled the water & scheduled the start, I didn’t add fresh grounds, because apparently my smarts only go so far.

Nothing like a pot of hot water to start the day!

CIM 2024 is in the books! My 7th marathon, 4th CIM. Loved all the micro-moments along the 26.2mi course. ❤️ The course support is phenomenal.

Next up - a spring full of halfs, followed by Twin Cities marathon, CIM and Mesa 2026.

I am, indeed, an AC/DC fan.

Was just that way on Friday and it was gorgeous (this is Hwy 89 just east of Shasta before hitting I-5)

Our Christmas tree just fell over. It isn’t decorated yet. Maybe we just leave it like this for the season?

My least favorite part of marathon prep - building the playlist. I need new songs. Any suggestions? Genre doesn’t matter

I really thought people would like my Monday morning Haiku.

In other news, I finished my 20 mile run and now I get to taper.

Can’t imagine why you’re so cranky at In-N-Out. 45 mins in line and counting…

Back on the west coast, in Portland, and got in a solid Tempo run.

After spending the week in Chicago, the difference between runners in CHI and PDX - Portland runners wave to each other. Chicago runners didn’t.
