Join the Journey

From the Sammamish trail to a table a Noma, you’ll find me running, eating, and enjoying life.

The things I'll do for food

I “Run All the Races” so I can “Eat All the Food” and “Drink All the Drinks”

Where in the world is...

Traveling one perfect meal, band, or race at a time.

Run All The Races

So many races, so little time…

Achievement Unlocked: Dallas Marathon

So I did it…that’s right, I actually trained for and completed the Dallas Marathon from zero to 26.2 in around three months. And I finished in about 6 hours, which is a good 30 minutes before the time limit and my projected finish.

NYC Running

What do you do when you’re in NYC, and have three days to get a proof of time for a marathon? You find a race. Even if it means taking a train. read more…

First Post-op race

Best laid plans, as they say…

I scheduled my first race, a half marathon with a gracious time limit, for two weeks after my 16-week post-op, which was when my surgeon hoped I would be cleared to run. (Remember, I have a history that meant I needed to be cautious in my recovery, so my VC didn’t collapse, or as we like to say: so my hoohaw doesn’t fall out.) But of course, my post-op was delayed two weeks, putting it just two days before my first race.

Get a Life

I have seen an abundance of tweets recently along the lines of Get a Life, RT if you are over 12 and have a life, Like if you Have a Life, don’t step on my lawn and get a life! I wonder what exactly these people consider “having a life.” I’m sure you know what I’m talking about–Pokemon Go. Oddly, its people who themselves spend large expanses of time doing something they enjoy.

Training for a marathon sucks up your life. I would argue you give up your life to run–and run all the time. But yet, these runners think they have a life.

I played Pokemon while training for a marathon. I guess I really don’t have a life.

 

Not running anywhere

I haven’t been running much this year, although I did eat all the food in New York City for my birthday. My endometriosis finally became too much to live with and I had a hysterectomy immediately after I returned from NYC. When I find a moment, I’ll post some amazing food photos! But first, a little about why I haven’t been running or sharing much.

Aloha

We go to Hawaii every year for Spring Break, not necessarily by choice, but it’s what it is in life with Artboy. This trip was a blur of Lava hikes, tiki drinks, amazing food, and great friends.

Fish Taco Craving

I spent a good part of my youth in San Diego, where fish tacos apparently bleed from our veins, but I truly hate fish tacos. Granted I went from my childhood protest of refusing to eat another fish stick at a fancy restaurant around age 5 to not eating fish until I was 22 or so. I broke on raw fish and cooked fish still makes me gag a little (and fishy fish is a thing and a thing I don’t like).
