Embracing the Runners We Are Today

biochembelle January 20, 2020

Dear runner, You do objectively amazing things. Maybe you run fast. Maybe you run far. Maybe you run up and down mountains or through country sides or along beaches. Maybe, in your words, you “just” run, or even jog. But …

Stumbling into a New Adventure

geneday October 8, 2019

Well, I’m injured again. As I write this, it’s been three and a half weeks since I’ve run. I don’t like it. I’m not happy. The problem is my feet. Both of them but mostly the right. I’m not sure …

geneday August 6, 2019

What can I say about the Volcanic 50km? Actually I’m guessing a lot. But the first things that occur to me are all just noises like “Whoosh!” and “Uuunggh.” This was one of the hardest things I’ve ever done. Maybe …

Into the Taper.

geneday July 24, 2019

The Volcanic 50k is less than two weeks away, and I’m scared as hell. The ten day forcasts are just touching race day now, and it’s not to my liking but it’s not terrible. Looks like it’s currently predicted to …

geneday July 5, 2019

In a change-up to my standard trail-running routine, on July 3rd, a work-friend and I went running after work on a Wednesday. Of course, with the holiday the next day, I didn’t need to be up early. But I admit …

The Runner I Want to Be.

biochembelle June 13, 2019

I have this image of the runner I want to be. She is fit. Tone. But also a bit muscular. She moves with purpose. Confidence. I like to imagine a bit of grace but also strength. Maybe not “fast” by …

Tech Frustration!

geneday June 10, 2019

In my day job, I work in systems engineering and data science for a hospital. But I’m a weird combination of tech-geek and luddite. I don’t like a lot of modern smart-tech because it all thinks it’s smarter than you …
