Race Recap! Rabbit Run 5K

April 11, 2023April 11, 2023Leave a comment

Oh, dear little Rabbit Run! I now feel a strange affection for this unassuming 5K race. It was as sincere as Linus’s pumpkin patch, and what it got for its efforts was a great big smack across the face from Old Man Weather. Is Old Man Weather a thing? Whatever; what I’m trying to say is RAAAAIN. Or, in...

How To Fall When Running (Here, Let Me Demonstrate)

February 11, 2022February 11, 20222 Comments

Whelp, it finally happened: I took a fall on the boardwalk. HOW I FELL WHILE RUNNING The boardwalk in question lines a portion of my route through Piñones, part of my usual long-run route. It is not well-maintained as far as missing boards and uneven bits of wood go, but I’ve been running on it for a good two...

The Most Universal Trip Report Of All: 10/19

October 25, 2019August 18, 20212 Comments

Detailing our quick weekend jaunt to Universal Studios Florida. Read all posts in this report here. Pat and I began our whirlwind Universal Studios Florida trip in unusual way: with a 3:30am flight. Hey, it was super cheap! Unfortunately, Frontier airplanes are NOT comfortable for sleepers, but we managed to snag some shuteye on the way to Orlando and landed...

In Which Jenn Swims The Parks Half Marathon

September 12, 2018August 23, 20212 Comments

“It’s a biathlon,” said man behind me to his running companion around mile 4 of the Parks Half Marathon. “We’re swimming AND running!” Indeed. Not that any of us could be surprised – the forecast had called for rain on the day of the Parks Half Marathon for at least a week. It had rained the night before. When...

In Which Jenn Runs A Very Rainy Twilighter 8K

July 24, 2018August 23, 2021Leave a comment

A month or three ago, I convinced Elizabeth to sign up for a 5 mile race. She’s not really a runner (except when I make her), but she gamely agreed to give it a shot when I promised her the Rockville Twilighter 8K would be a festive night race with free beer.  And by God, I delivered a night race...

In Which Jenn Runs But Might As Well Be Swimming

June 12, 2018August 23, 2021Leave a comment

As noted, the Wayfarer’s Half was cancelled for potential storms… and then no storms appeared whatsoever. That was Saturday.  Sunday was another story entirely – great buckets dumped from the sky allllllll day, legit rain to which words like “shower” and “sprinkle” did not apply. And this was bad news for me because, having wound up running only a...

In Which Jenn Runs The Wayfarer’s 10K AGAINST HER WILL*

June 5, 2018August 23, 2021Leave a comment

*This may be a slight exaggeration. The ominous weather forecast was poor all week: potential lightning and storms on Saturday morning. And the day before the race, the Wayfarer Half organizers caved: they called off the Wayfarer’s Half Marathon. What they did not cancel was the Wayfarer’s 10k, set to start at the same time but expected to finish before the...

In Which Jenn Recaps The Kings Dominion Run & Ride 10K

May 24, 2016August 10, 20212 Comments

Guys. Guys guys. I ran a race in an amusement park and it wasn’t runDisney. Last Sunday, the ever-popular, ever-magnificent Elizabeth and I got up at 4:30am and drove down to Kings Dominion amusement park in Doswell, VA. The hour-and-a-half-sans-traffic trip went smoothly, and we arrived in plenty of time to pick up our packets and prep for our runs....

The Fairest Week In Review: 10/07

October 7, 2015August 11, 2021Leave a comment

JENN: I’m gonna go make some tea; you tell me how your week in running has been. MOON: It’s been rather uneventful. Last week was the gloomiest week in recent history. They were handing out sand bags because of the hurricane. o_O I thought about investing in a boat, even. JENN: I hear running the track on cruise ships is good fun. Depending...
