JENN: Question one on my mind is this: did you get any running/exercise stuff for Christmas? MOON: I did, actually! Did you? JENN: Yes! You first. MOON: So, the only Christmas-proper running present I got was from my roommate’s mother. She gave me a new pair of running shoes! We had been looking through the outlets over the summer...

Another just-Jenn WIR, guys. I’m so sorry about teasing you with last week’s return of the dynamic duo, but SOMEBODY is on a road trip with her boyfriend. (The somebody in question is Moon.) She tells me she went for a run in Tennessee and will do a post on it, so we will forgive her her absence.

JENN: Let’s start by noting that we finally got around to putting together our flights for the Tinker Bell Half, and I’m super excited! MOON: We are flying to LA, whhhat! JENN: And our flight out is even nonstop. Unprecedented! MOON: The cares weren’t too steep either. I mean fares. JENN: Indeed. MOON: Quite. JENN: Yes. Overall, I think...

JENN: LOOK WHO I FOOOOOOUND MOON: GIIIIIIRRRRLLLLL Reunited! WITH HATS. JENN: WOO! Moon has been running! MOON: Affirmative! JENN: So how’s your new training era been going? MOON: Well, typically training is always a downer in the winter for me. You know… it’s cold, no sun, every day is blue. So I made myself promise to run every day...

GUYS. GUYS. GUYS GUYS GUYS GUYS GUYS. I LEAVE FOR WALT DISNEY WORLD ON WEDNESDAY. My preferred mode of travel. I cannot begin to explain to you how perfect the timing is. I need a pick-me-up and WDW is just about the only thing strong enough to make that happen. I’ll be going into greater detail regarding my plans...

This story begins, as it so often does, with the gym breaking down. It’s kind of my own fault, really. No, not the gym breaking down; just the part where it screws me over. See, I was supposed to run on Sunday, but my Saturday suuuuuuucked and I was feeling tired and down so I skipped it in favor...

Oof. To be perfectly frank, I had a rough weekend. That’s a bad start to the post. Please forgive me. Please forgive me, too, for depriving you of Moon’s virtual company; she got a couple training runs in this week and was going to get in on the Week In Review for the first time in forever. Unfortunately, in...

My dad has this saying: “The excellent is the enemy of the good.” And lately I feel like the phrase was coined with running in mind. When you first start running it’s hard, physically and mentally – but in other ways, it’s almost easy, because practically everything you do constitutes a personal record. Slowly you build up your mileage...

Hi, everybody! How was your weekend? I finally saw Escape to Tomorrow, and I have… thoughts. So there’s that to look forward to this week. Aside from that, I’m trying to wrangle Moon for another post or two; her mom’s doing fine but she has a new paramour. You know how it is. As...
