Veggie burgers with smoked gouda, tomato, and avocado. Side of pinto beans with diced hatch green chiles and onions. #cooking #vegetarian #plantpowered
Took the afternoon off with a book from the local library and an oatmeal stout from the local brewery. 70deg in January is not a thing to waste!
Also, my first Haruki Murakami book, on a recommendation from a friend. Will report. #amreading #scifi #beer
One year ago I was not a runner, never intended to become a runner, didn't even own a pair of running shoes. A lot can happen in a year... set a challenge and go for it!
2020 #running resolutions locked in....
One City Half Marathon
Ragnar Trail Zion
Outer Banks Marathon (first! aaaaahhh!)
Had a great race despite re-emerging right knee issues. 2:08:54 official time, which feel short of my goal of 2:05:00 but still beat my previous 2:15:47. And, according to my Garmin, also set my best 10K time within the Half Marathon! Two PRs in one race, can’t complain!
Resting for a few weeks while on vacay in California and Mexico! Though I’ll prob get a light run in here and there. Looking forward to the One City half in March. #running
I figured since they have my money already for upcoming #StarTrek: #Picard, I might as well give #Discovery a shot now that I have CBS All Access.
Love the aesthetic so far. Reserving judgment for now on characters and story.
An unexpected benefit of having done a Ragnar. Woke up on a scheduled run morning to pouring rain outside. Very tempted to punt.
And then I thought, wait a minute. It’s just rain? I get to start fully rested, hydrated, and uninjured? And I get to immediately dry off, eat a great brunch, and hang with friends someplace warm with hot chocolate after? And I only have to run once? None of these were true at Ragnar and I did it anyway.
7 mi in the cold October rain and loved it. #NoDaysOff
