Finding Radiance

** Don’t forget to enter the Attune giveaway ** Tuesday run day!  Since I did 3 miles yesterday, I did 5 today (usually 6).  Pretty standard treadmill run.  I was checking my Daily Mile log and I have run 152 miles since January 1st!    And I don’t consider myself a runner first.  Interesting….  My [...]

I loved the things all of you would say to your past selves!  Thanks for the comments on my photos, too.  There is always mixed feeling of shame and embarrassment in putting those up there. … Saturday morning and out to breakfast!  We took my folks out as a thank you for when we were [...]

Happy Thursday and the last day of my work week!  Yay!  I *finally* will get 2 whole days off in a row.  I need it.  Headed off to do my run at the gym.  I put on some music from the jog tunes indie podcast and just used that to do my different speedwork with.  [...]

Another busy day on tap here at casa java!  I got some more great sleep.  I’ll do a more informative post on the 5HTP hopefully this week.  Think it is doing me some good!  Today was a run day.  One thing about my job in transcription is that there is sometimes medical information given that [...]

Finished up my work week! Yes!  Now it’s relaxing time.  Sort of.  Lots to do this weekend.  Don’t forget to enter the book giveaway if you haven’t! Started off the morning with a good run.  While I truly miss my biking since it is winter, I am actually enjoying just concentrating on running.  Over the [...]

It’s Christmas Eve!  This is really my favorite day of the year.  It’s the anticipation at its peak I was up wayyyyy early today at 5:30 so I got up and worked for a while before heading to the gym.  I had a Zone bar before and hit the treadmill for 5.5 miles!  It felt [...]

I have to say, this weather has been really cold!  It has not been above freezing for a couple weeks now, I think.    No precip, so the air has been very dry.  It’s so hard to get out to go to the gym and get in a cold car (but better than biking in [...]

Had a great treadmill run today.  5 miles of increasing speed up to 7.0!  I was sweating like crazy and loving every minute.  Exercise is such a great stress buster, don’t you think? I spoke with the gym owner this morning, as I hadn’t seen him since last Monday and offered my condolences on his [...]

The outside run I did last week made me realize that I miss running! Streets and sidewalks are too icy and snow packed to do much outside (not to mention the cold!).So tonight I went to my parents’ house and ran on their treadmill. I was okay for about 15 minutes, then it just seemed [...]
