January Running

24 February, 20162 March, 2016 RenéeExercise, Fun Stuff, Just Life, Training3 Comments on January Running

Another year flew by, an exciting year, and 2016 pretty much crashed in like a ton of bricks! On the 31st of December I took the day off and was actually able to run with my beloved running group on…

another change, or rather going back to the beginning again… Tonight I went back to Weight Watchers. Not because I want to be on a diet. Because I need the support. I tried to do it online for a while…

Done. Onto the Next One.

2 October, 20136 May, 2015 RenéeExercise, Fun Stuff, Race Recap2 Comments on Done. Onto the Next One.

So Sunday… was the Posbankloop, which once again my husband kicked his PR’s ass. He’s such a rockstar! First of all, it’s a smaller race. Not sure how many participants but probably 5000 or less. It wasn’t very crowded at…

Epic.

28 September, 20136 May, 2015 RenéeExercise, Fun Stuff, Just Life, Race Recap4 Comments on Epic.

I don’t know how else to describe this month. Mind you, Epic doesn’t necessary mean good. In my case it means a lot of different things. Good. Bad. Stressed. Busy. Exhausted. First of all, the work thing is just insane.…

Sunday Run: aka My Husband is Awesome

15 July, 201315 July, 2013 RenéeExercise, Fun Stuff, Just Life4 Comments on Sunday Run: aka My Husband is Awesome

I’ve been fairly down lately. Eating isn’t going well (uninspired. bored. meh.) Running isn’t going well (slow. heavy. no schedule) I have a lot of things on my mind, the usual combination of stuff – work, thoughts, life, etc. Ron’s…

How do you move your behind?

29 May, 201329 May, 2013 RenéeExercise, Fun Stuff, Just Life5 Comments on How do you move your behind?

I was thinking about this today on my walk around the block at the station. You see, (almost) every work day I arrive at my station in Amsterdam and I walk a kilometer around the block(s) because I have time…

Running on Strava – Let’s connect!

Fresh out of the oven, or crusty old pie, you choose:

Team Pie

Hey! I’m Renée, 55 years old; I started running just to lose some weight and in the meantime found out that running changes pretty much everything. My favorite running partner, Ron (56), started running just to support me, but he found out he actually had a talent for it and consequently has run over 28 marathons in the span of 6 years with  3 of them being World Majors.

This blog is about running, fitness, mental health, travel and, though I am trying to get out of diet mentality, I may still talk about weight/ weight loss.   Sometimes a combination of all, sometimes not. And not always in that order.

Running and fitness keep me sane, travel is my passion.We live in the Netherlands – Mr Pie is Dutch and I am American and Dutch, now living here over half of my life.

I love to comments and hearing from people regarding pretty much anything, so please feel free to contact me at any time! I'm not a professional by any means, but I love to share stories, tips and tricks, commiserations, celebrations and of course a good slice of pie (if you've got one on offer)
