Ten Reasons I will Never do the Color Run Again
Tweet Update: I’m sorry (too) that this post comes up so high in the search engine. I wrote this post in 2013. This was the first Colour Run in the Netherlands. I’m sure you’ll have a great time at YOUR Colour Run, whichever one you choose to do. You don’t need to take my experience…
Another Week Down
Tweet What a week! What a weekend! Where do I even start? Everything about my life seems like such a blur at times. I know. It’s getting boring. I’m saying the same things over and over. So I’m still off and feeling a bit discombobulated. I’m not eating well (still) but I’m not eating completely…
Run, Laugh, Eat… Curry?
Tweet I mentioned previously that my husband and my stepdaughter have a (renewed, in Hubs’ case) interest in running. While Hubs and I rarely run “together” – his pace is much faster than mine – I love going out for a run with him and can’t wait to go for our after work runs in…
Week 7 and 8, Good and Bad + a 10KM Race
Tweet Yes, again behind on posting. Well you should know by now how it goes with me. Sometimes I can get in a few times a week, sometimes once a month. It’s tough sometimes to make the time. Anywhoo. TWO full training weeks have gone by! It’s been dynamic! Week 7 Run one was a…
Even the Blog has Jetlag
Tweet I did not mean to take so long to update! As you (may or may not) know, last week I returned from visiting my family in Albuquerque. It was a good visit but also a little bit heartbreaking. That sounds dramatic, but let me tell you why. My grandmother – she’s very old, she’s…
Week 4 Half Marathon Update
Tweet It was am incredibly stressful week last week. In my head I knew it would probably be like that, knowing that it was my last week before holiday (yay!) but I also knew I needed to go to the doctor care of some female stuff (don’t worry, everything is fine and I won’t go…
Week 3 Update
Tweet This week has been Cray Cray. I mean seriously. Between work, running and gym I have zero time left over. I’m trying to make it work, you know, but I’m burning the candle at both ends! For week 3 I needed 4 runs, 1 cross training day and 2 rest days. Monday – this…
Week 1 – Complete
Tweet So, hey, did I mention I’m running the HALF MARATHON in Berlin in April? Perhaps you remember me saying it before, but Berlin is one of my favourite cities in Europe. It’s a complex city with lots of history (certainly not always with shining moments), amazing architechture, dynamic people and whenever I’m there I…
Oh Wow.
Tweet It’s like a freaking ghost town in here, man It’s already January 18th! How did this happen?? Well. I will tell you how. New Years Came and Went. I had to work. That’s right. I work in financial admin and end of the month is end of the month. Bookkeeping stops for no man!…
The Last Race of the Year
Tweet Was Fabulous :) Seriously I thought it was going to very cold or very rainy or very icy but it wasn’t so bad at all. Unfortunately my family was not able this time to come out to Rotterdam due to the timing of the race. It was a kind of sad revelation on the…
