I’m not exactly sure why, but Reagan and I have the tendency to psyche ourselves out before races. Reagan is worse at it than I am. For example, she came in this morning after her run, telling me that she can’t breathe when it is cold, so the race on Saturday is going to be … Continue reading T -3 days until the Hartford race→
Fall has shifted into high gear. This last weekend, I could especially feel it in the weather. Since it is now October, there are some pretty fun times right around the corner. This coming weekend is the Hartford Marathon. I’m getting pretty excited/nervous about the event. It should be a total blast. I’m am a … Continue reading Good times ahead→
For those of you who have had a chance to peruse Reagan’s blob today, you may have noticed the little Nike+ widget on her page logged a 20 mile run this morning. No, it isn’t a technical error.

It looks like of the anxiety surrounding the start up of the CERN Hadron Collider was all for naught. However, … Continue reading Avocado tree update (and others)→
Reagan has been having anxiety all week about her run today. She is doing 18 miles. She is probably actually just finishing her run right about now. Anyway, she was really stressing about it last night. When I was coming in from moving the car this morning, she was on her way out the door. … Continue reading Go Reagan!→
As I previously mentioned, Reagan and I are totally pumped about our new pedometers. Apparently though, calibration is necessary in order for it to be accurate. We discovered this last night.
