In Which Jenn Likes Yoga Because Of Disney, Obviously

August 13, 2019August 18, 2021Leave a comment

Since I moved to Puerto Rico I don’t have as many cross-training opportunities as I once did. Well, I say that – all I ever used to do was ballet. I’ve actually been doing some weight training and resistance exercises in addition to running, so you could argue that I’m doing more cross-training, maybe? But I miss ballet. Not to...

In Which Jenn Gets Jazzed For A Long Run

August 25, 2016September 2, 20213 Comments

Last week I came to a startling realization: I was actually excited about my planned 16 mile long run.

JENN: Did you run at all this week? MOON: Ouiii. I’m actually a bit burned out JENN: Awww. How are you burned out? MOON: I’ve decided that I need to add strength training in again.

The Fairest Week In Review: 6/24

June 24, 2014August 13, 20212 Comments

JENN: So how has the running been? MOON: Not too bad, how about you? JENN: Last week was actually surprisingly good. I wound up covering about 40 miles over the course of the week, which is 7 – 10 more than my average. Mind you, it helped that it was a no-ballet week. Ballet starts again today, so I doubt I’ll be...

In Which Crosstraining is Discussed & Jenn Tries to Sell Moon on Ballet

July 30, 2013August 15, 20212 Comments

JENN: What’s your cross-training regimen? MOON: You always ask me first. I insist you share this time! JENN: Haha, okay! I try to do some push-ups plus crunches, and similar ab exercises on a regular basis. I say try, but in all honesty I don’t do it very often… I’m a little better about grabbing some low-weight dumbbells and...
