Best Advice of 2025

January 1, 2026

Happy New Year! Before I forget, as I often do, this blog turns 16 years old this month. That’s right: it’s old enough to have a driver’s license. I’ve been writing here since the kids were toddlers. Now they’ve grown and flown and here I am, still at it, more or less…these days it’s less. [Read More]

Coffee and the Newspaper are the Root of All Evil

January 6, 2017

Here we are: A new year and a new chance to have coffee and catch up. Special thanks to our lovely hostesses Coco and Deb for getting us together. If we were having coffee I’d tell you one of my goals for 2017 is to stop procrastinating my runs. Especially when it’s cold and dark, [Read More]

Abject Resolution Fail and It Feels So Good

January 1, 2017

I am back from Florida where we celebrated the MIL’s 75th birthday. If you missed it on Facebook and Instagram, the trip was pretty amazing and went 1000x better than I ever imagined possible. More on that to come. Right now let’s get to the New Year’s goodness. According to many, 2016 was kind of [Read More]

Watch Out 2016, I’ve Got Goals

December 30, 2015

I’ve never been a resolutioner. In fact I’m kind of a crappy goal setter. This is the closest post I could find that remotely discussed plans for 2015. My mileage tracking is ponderous at best. I may log it, I may not. I’ve never set a yearly mileage goal because I know whatever I run, it’ll be [Read More]

Happy New Year!

January 2, 2012

Before we all step off into business-as-usual 2012, I want to thank all of you who stop by here regularly to cheer me on, kick me in the ass, share advice, experiences and everything else. I’ve enjoyed your friendship, (real life and cyber) and it’s been an honor to celebrate your triumphs, encourage you as [Read More]

Happy New Year!

December 31, 2010

To my readers and A-listers:Thank you for hanging out here with me. Whether you’ve been along for the run awhile now or you’ve recently joined us. Whether I’ve had the pleasure of actually meeting you or you remain on the to-meet list, as weird as Thing 1 thinks this is, I consider you all my [Read More]

Three Final Things

December 30, 2010

1. Gift Exchange GoodiesBehold the array of good things I found in my mailbox from Bobbi my Secret Santa. There was some yummy Ghirardelli Peppermint Bark, some Chocolate Outrage GUs and a very cute ‘Run’ necklace from Inspired Endurance. Perfect! Thank you Bobbi and special thanks to Jill for coordinating this extravaganza. 2. Exercise-Induced ToothacheSanta [Read More]

Blue Moon

January 2, 2010

Did you see the blue moon last night/this morning? Our very rare second full moon in a month’s time? Although the blue has nothing to do with it’s color, around here it did cast an eerily pretty bluish glow on the snow. Although I’m no astrologer, I interpret this blue moon on the last day [Read More]

marciashealthyslice I'm a working mom who, as part of a mid-life challenge, decided to run a marathon for kicks. I didn't plan on it becoming a hobby, but it did. I qualified for Boston at my second marathon and finished the 6 World Marathon Majors in London in 2019. Set no small goals. You never know what you're capable of until you try!
