Abdominoplasty: One Month Post-Op
NOT related to the state of my body, but rather the work week… Basically it’s always a bit nuts with work around the end of the month and on the first day of the new month, however, the company finally made the split they announced earlier this year (remember, I mentioned I am going to…
Abdominoplasty: Week Three Update
Back to Work I’m 23 days post op as of publishing this post and I have to say I’m really glad I had two weeks off to recover before going “back to work” downstairs in my workspace. I WAS however supposed to work 50% but that didn’t really happen. A lot going on, a lot…
WRD: Another Catch-up Week 21 + 22
I wish I had about 36 hours in each day so I had more time to blog consistently! Oh well. It’s a luxury problem! I’ll try to keep it short, sweet and fairly readable! Week 21: Total Steps – 111442 average of almost 16K steps per day Biking – 26.5 KM Lunch Walk x 2…
WRD: Catching Up Week 19+20
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 I…
Runner’s Spotlight: Meet Missy
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 and…
Runner’s Spotlight: Introducing Christine
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 story…
WRD: Week 17 -Kings & Queens
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 the…
WRD: Week 15 – Good Intentions Sputter out
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 fact…
Weekly Run Down: Planned vs. Reality Recovery
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 most…
March Runfessions – From the Couch
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 for…
