WRD: Catching Up Week 19+20
Tweet I’m going to try and keep this weekly run down as short and sweet as possible. I know how hard it is to follow up on all the blogs in the linkup so I want to make this as easy as possible. You’re welcome. Hahaha! I can’t believe it was just last week that…
Runner’s Spotlight: Meet Missy
Tweet This week I’m talking to Missy; she started running after she’d lost some weight to then further supplement her weight loss. She’s lost 90 lbs in total! While I hadn’t lost any weight at all (I just started at 100KG / 220 lbs) I do know that original mindset of running to lose weight…
Runner’s Spotlight: Introducing Christine
Tweet A couple of years ago, funnily enough after my last foot surgery, I reached out to several runners to interview them for the blog. When I am looking for motivation, or for people out there who “get” me, I find it very useful and inspiring to talk to runners who possibly have a similar…
WRD: Week 17 -Kings & Queens
Tweet Well, really just one King (and one Queen). That is the King of the Netherlands, Willem-Alexander. Every year we celebrate Kings Day (it used to be Queen’s Day until his mum retired) with a “free” market, lots of food and music festivals throughout the cities and villages. King’s day is the actual birthday of…
WRD: Week 15 – Good Intentions Sputter out
Tweet I immediately got this song in my head when I figured out what I wanted to use as the title of this week’s post. Other ideas had something to do with the roads and good intentions but my blog is filled with those types of posts! Hello Friends! Another week has gone by, in…
Weekly Run Down: Planned vs. Reality Recovery
Tweet What up my friends? Week 14 of 2019 is basically history and we are on to the next. It’s curious how so many of us can’t believe the speed at which our lives pass through each week and month and year, no? It seems to me that this speed means we are making the…
March Runfessions – From the Couch
Tweet Heyyyyy everyone – I’m back online again, and this time with a brand new host and url! Finally after basically forever, I’ve changed my blog url to match everything else. When I started the blog in 2009 I had no idea where it was going to take me, it was purely for accountability purposes…

Tweet Tuesday Topics Again! Don’t be shy, join in the link up with Kookyrunnerand Zenaida, get to know other bloggers and join in the fun! This weeks topic: How do you fuel for a run? Fuelling for a run is different for everyone. I have to say I sure have learned a lot about…
Runner Spotlight # 7 – Claire
Tweet Right, we were doing runner’s spotlights on Fridays but I’m now going to change them to Wednesdays. Or Thursdays. I don’t know yet! On Friday I want to start doing the Friday Five Link Up. This is my attempt to actually be more engaged with other running bloggers and hopefully give you guys something…
No Change is Good Change
Tweet I’m now 16 days post-op and feeling great actually! Yesterday I got my stitches out and, while I have a wee bit of pain in my foot, it’s kind of like when you have a blister that’s healing – that level of pain. Which is basically nothing! I would post a photo of right…
