Running [My Mouth]: Perfect. Part 2: Race Day
http://phoebevg.blogspot.com/2015/04/perfect-part-2-race-day.html
Oh, the things that run through my mind. Thursday, April 23, 2015. Perfect. Part 2: Race Day. To hear about the couple of practically perfect days we made prior to Marathon Monday, check out Part 1. Of this post. Here, we begin with the Big Day. The shirt is Lauren's and it is Team in Training, a fundraising marathon training group. They do great work. I felt like a tool on the race course bc many people cheered for me because of the shirt. Gah! I am a fraud! Final 'click' before we hit the shuttle.

Running [My Mouth]: Perfect, Part I
http://phoebevg.blogspot.com/2015/04/perfect-part-i.html
Oh, the things that run through my mind. Wednesday, April 22, 2015. Perfect, Part I. Outside of, say, Nadia Comaneci (millennial kids: look it up) I know that there's no such thing as perfect. Next to "perfect" in the dictionary you may find her pic or pics of my Boston Marathon weekend. Signs created by a wonderful school family and signed by most of the kids and staff. Glad I left them home because they would have been wrecked in the rain. T selfie. and it was T's 11th birthday! And full of sample size...

Running [My Mouth]: Pay it 40-ward: "The Fall"
http://phoebevg.blogspot.com/2014/02/pay-it-40-ward-fall.html
Oh, the things that run through my mind. Wednesday, February 12, 2014. Pay it 40-ward: "The Fall". By now, most of you probably know the basics of what happened to me on Monday afternoon. Please pardon (or skip reading) the re-telling. For interested parties, here's the blow-by-blow:. I live to serve! At 3:40 (yes, I looked at my watch) we were on the ski lift and the child sitting next to me - the one who struggled so much to get up off the ground when he fell - said, "How many runs do we have left?

Oh, the things that run through my mind. Saturday, May 9, 2015. People of Panera: We are SO SO SO sorry. Today promised to be a busy but wonderful day for Team Giessler. Scott and the big kids were set to spend the morning and early afternoon at William Lawrence Camp. And of course I would until he seemed at ease on his own and again, where upon I would return to 'helping' get ready for the race. (I showed up early but honestly, I was not very helpful! Sorry to our RD, Carol! Gabe has a history of being ...

Running [My Mouth]: Streak, Boston, Holidays (and a Partridge in the Pear Tree)
http://phoebevg.blogspot.com/2014/12/streak-boston-holidays-and-partridge-in.html
Oh, the things that run through my mind. Sunday, December 28, 2014. Streak, Boston, Holidays (and a Partridge in the Pear Tree). Here we are again. My last post was about 65,000 years ago. Pretty sure it was about the melting of the polar ice caps and the coming of a frightening new era of global climate change, the obliteration of many species of animal and plant, and stuff like that. Ha ha ha. Which is hilarious,. Since clearly that will never happen now. G: I love you, Mom. Me: I love you, too, Gabe.

Being a dork during the entre' act. E in one of his MANY roles: The Elephant Bird. Stole.The.Show! A small taste of the amazing set and costumes. The boy in front wrote me the 'fan' letter.

Running [My Mouth]: I can't count to 18
http://phoebevg.blogspot.com/2015/01/i-cant-count-to-18.html
Oh, the things that run through my mind. Sunday, January 4, 2015. I can't count to 18. I've just completed week 2 of marathon training. Even though I did. My problem on this occasion was that the end of the month of March overlaps a LOT with the beginning of April. How this kicked me in the butt this time around is that I gave the same week TWO different training weeks. Friday, I got a text from her suggesting I double check my 'math'. Whaddayaknow? My low-tech, very messy training schedule. Gah. If you ...
