JENN: Did you run last week? MOON: I did! Although, you know how there is this one week of every month that makes running just a bit more difficult? That was the only bummer. JENN: You mean mentally? Or in terms of making time for it? Or both? MOON: Well, it’s consistent, usually unpredictable, moody, bring some serious cramps. JENN: AHA. I see where we...

JENN: Did you run last week? MOON: I did! A bit rather slow and steady, but it happened. Did you? JENN: I did! MOON: Great success! JENN: I did one regular long run plus two shorter speed runs where I upped my top speed. My five minute sprints are now one minute each at 8, 7.5, 7, 6.5, 6mph, then five minutes at 5.5 mph,...

JENN: How was running last week? MOON: Much improved and very much welcome. 🙂 How about yours? JENN: It was 50% on the boardwalk in Ocean City, MD! No Toothless this time, though, sadly. I got in two runs while I was there (more on this later in the week) and while they were hot I REALLY APPRECIATE the proliferation of water fountains....

JENN: Did you finally get to run for real last week?! MOON: YES!!! Like, FIVE! While going a month without running was saaaaad, at least I know I truly love to run. Or, at least, that’s what I’m telling myself. Glass half full. JENN: Yay! Are you running around your new neighborhood or hitting my friend the treadmill? MOON: Your good friend the treadmill....

Hi! As you may know, Moon moved into a new apartment last week, and she’s still sorting through the wreckage that inevitably comes with transferring a boyfriend, cat, and all one’s possessions across town in the space of a few days. As such, we’re skipping the full week in review experience for this week and heading straight for the...

JENN: Did you get any runs in last week? MOON: Nope. But this is my LAST week of no running. Next Sunday I’ll be a gym member again. Super excited. How were your runs this week? JENN: They were perfectly okay but nothing inspiring. I got done what I wanted done – including a 4+ miles speed run on Friday – but...

JENN: Happy six months to Christmas! So how was your week in running? MOON: If you had asked, “So how was your week in PACKING?” my answer would have been “Wonderful!!!” I met my box-a-day quota twofold. It’s been crazy-hot outside and I don’t belong to a gym at present, so running has been taking a lower placement on my...

JENN: How was running last week? Getting anything in? MOON: Ha, absolutely not! Did you? JENN: Ha, absolutely not much! As I mentioned last week, I was WAAAAAY sick Tuesday. I took a walk anyway but I really shouldn’t have. I was less sick on Wednesday but still not in great shape; I took another walk. Thursday I tried to run and did but...

JENN: How was your training last week? MOON: Again, terrible. I’ve had so much work to do lately, it’s kind of crazy. JENN: Well, that’s probably keeping your heart rate up, at least! MOON: Nothing like stress to keep you going. XD Also, being sick always makes long weeks even longer. How was your training? JENN: Last week was fine. Two long runs and a...

JENN: Remember how last week I said I was going to get fitted for new sneakers? Well, I lied. For the simple reason that new sneakers, purchased in-store, are BLOODY EXPENSIVE and I decided I didn’t want to drop the money just yet. I’ll re-evaluate in a month or so; in the meantime, I should be fine fine with my...
