Running-girl's Reflections: PERSPECTIVE
http://runninggirlsblog.blogspot.com/2012/06/perspective.html
Saturday, June 2, 2012. Photo courtesy of: http:/ tenlap.com/show-the-way/. A friend of mine invited me to stay overnight at her house on a recent trip to Seattle. The next morning, we decided to go for a run. She opened her window curtain to greet the morning. 8221; she said, bright-eyed and cheery. As I sipped my hot tea, I visualized a tantalizing run through the quaint neighborhood of Queen Anne, known for its stunning architectural homes, sweeping views, and charming shops. Then I lace my shoes and ...

Running-girl's Reflections: THE AGONY OF “THE FEET”
http://runninggirlsblog.blogspot.com/2009/05/agony-of-feet.html
Wednesday, May 20, 2009. THE AGONY OF “THE FEET”. Bone spurs, shin splints, plantar fasciitis, tendonitis, ankle sprains, IT band syndrome. These are common injuries suffered by runners. I’ve been fortunate to not experience a single running injury in all my years of running…until now. People go through injuries all the time, but you can never really understand the magnitude of the pain until it affects you. The pain that I am referring to is not just physical, it is emotional. 8220;What am I going to do?

Running-girl's Reflections: Crossing the Finish Line
http://runninggirlsblog.blogspot.com/2009/05/crossing-finish-line.html
Tuesday, May 26, 2009. Crossing the Finish Line. Dedicated to my Team In Training teammates of the Silicon Valley/Monterey Bay Chapter, North/Mid-Peninsula team. Most people training for their first marathon are overwhelmed by the 26.2 miles they would have to run. 8220;I just want to finish,” they’d say. But crossing the finish line is more than “just finishing.”. I remember my first marathon: (The 2006 Honolulu Marathon). The deafening cheers brought a smile to my face. You become a marathoner. You ga...

Running-girl's Reflections: Got Water?
http://runninggirlsblog.blogspot.com/2011/10/got-water.html
Wednesday, October 5, 2011. Water is cooling. Water is refreshing. Water is quenching. I can’t go on a run without carrying a water bottle or wearing a hydration pack- no matter what the distance is. It’s like a safe haven for me. I like to be prepared and would hate to be without water when I need it most. My routes don’t offer water options. I don’t always have the luxury of water fountains or convenience stores conveniently placed on my route. So I bring my own water. This led me to my poll questions.

Running-girl's Reflections: Confessions of a Runner
http://runninggirlsblog.blogspot.com/2009/06/confessions-of-runner.html
Monday, June 8, 2009. Confessions of a Runner. The music, “ Eye of the Tiger. 8221; that played in my head as I ran had been replaced by, “ You’ve Lost that Loving Feeling. 8221; by the Righteous Brothers. . You know the song:. 8230;You've lost that lovin' feeling,. Whoa, that lovin' feeling,. You've lost that lovin' feeling,. Now it's gone.gone.gone.wooooooh. I confess. . I had lost my enthusiasm for running. . I’ve struggled to wake up in the early morning for a run. . I run and what. Slowing down ...

Running-girl's Reflections: HILLS!
http://runninggirlsblog.blogspot.com/2009/08/hills.html
Monday, August 31, 2009. The dreaded 4-letter word. A mere mention of the word and runners are quick to respond. I hear it all the time—the sighs and groans of runners-in-training at the base of a hill. They respond with statements like, “Are you ready for the hill? 8220;This is going to be painful,” “I’m gonna die,” and “Let’s get this over with! As a seasoned runner, I too, can feel dismayed just hearing those comments. It makes a little hill sound like a huge mountain, which can be discouraging. As in...

Thursday, May 13, 2010. A Funny Thing Happened On My Way To.(part 2). Apparently, there are lots of funny things that can happen on our runs. A discussion on LinkedIn's Marathon and Team In Training groups elicited many responses to the question: Has anything funny happened to you on a run? Here are a few of my favorite ones:.
