Shelley's Boring Blog: September 2013
http://shelleydevere.blogspot.com/2013_09_01_archive.html
Things which matter most must never be at the mercy of things which matter least." -Goethe. Friday, September 20, 2013. There is absolutely no way Im going to participate in a 3100 mile race. It's kind of fun to make statements like that, because I usually end up doing everything that I once said that I would NEVER do. Before we moved here, I had heard of this 3100 mile race that takes place less than 3 miles of our NYC home ( http:/ 3100.srichinmoyraces.org/. Links to this post. I think there is no bett...

Shelley's Boring Blog: May 2011

Things which matter most must never be at the mercy of things which matter least." -Goethe. Sunday, May 01, 2011. Since we moved into the new house, Brian has been obsessing about the little to no insulation in the attic. Apparently, a lot of remodeling has meant that parts had been taken out or trampled down quite a bit. So this weekend we rented AttiCat! The whole thing took about 3 hours, including talking to the neighbor about it :). Links to this post. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Many of life's fail...

Shelley's Boring Blog: My First Broadway Show
http://shelleydevere.blogspot.com/2013/10/my-first-broadway-show.html
Things which matter most must never be at the mercy of things which matter least." -Goethe. Friday, October 11, 2013. My First Broadway Show. My friend Jessica is in NYC to goof off before the Atlantic City Marathon this weekend. So with one day in NY, I asked her the things that she would like to do. The 9/11 memorial and a Broadway show were on her list. So yesterday morning we headed over to the memorial under a very grey sky to visit that. So I stood and watched The Book of Mormon last night. It ...

Things which matter most must never be at the mercy of things which matter least." -Goethe. Monday, October 24, 2011. Javelina 12 hour night run. Where do I start? Near Fountain Hills on the evening of October 15th, waiting to start what I was hoping would be a 75k (46.2 mile) race for me. It was a 12 hour night run. So the race. First, the high temp that day ended up around 96F? This is the middle of October! My second lap was looking more promising with the ginger ale working on my belly, and I was sta...

Things which matter most must never be at the mercy of things which matter least." -Goethe. Tuesday, December 17, 2013. I remember back in September, when I saw a link to this article about how far Rocky ran in the training montage scene in Rocky II. I remember sending the article. To Brian, because he loves everything Rocky. Of course, the link to ultra-marathons piqued my interest. The author had watched the training montage in Rocky II. We did some practice fighting in front of the steps. Brian re...

Shelley's Boring Blog: March 2012

Things which matter most must never be at the mercy of things which matter least." -Goethe. Wednesday, March 14, 2012. I've been thinking a lot about the power of our minds. We can do some amazing, and also some amazingly stupid things just by thought alone. It's something for me to work on for the next 70 years anyway. Links to this post. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). I think there is no better way to invite a human being to view their body differently than by inviting them to be an athlete, by revering o...

Shelley's Boring Blog: July 2011
http://shelleydevere.blogspot.com/2011_07_01_archive.html
Things which matter most must never be at the mercy of things which matter least." -Goethe. Friday, July 08, 2011. 60,000 Runners, Oh My! Brian did pretty well - he finished #397 (remember, out of 60,000) in 39:35. He won a coffee mug for being in the top 1000 finishers. We milled around after the race, finding all the free stuff (Dave was with us). We then walked quite a way to get onto a bus that would take us to the train back to our car. When we were on the bus, we passed the race course, and...I thi...

Things which matter most must never be at the mercy of things which matter least." -Goethe. Wednesday, July 10, 2013. And what do I do? Alternately: What the real housewife of Queens does all day. Jen asked, so here goes. I'll write down what I did yesterday. It's not very exciting. But that fits right in with the name of this blog, right? 8am: Returned from run. Ate, stretched, showered, ate some more. 11:00: Rode my bike to. I'll save signing up for this for the day I actually get desperate. YES, I SAI...
