I still kind of shake my head when I realize that summer is actually over, fall is well under way, and winter not that far off!!
I was SO meant to be born in SoCal (that’s ‘Southern California’ for all you folks who aren’t as hip as me… the fact that I still use the term ‘hip’ proves me otherwise) where the weather is permanently niiiice. Once I get over my initial mourning period for the loss of summer however I do actually enjoy the fall season. I love all the fresh produce, pulling out warm p.j.’s, long walks enjoying the fall colours.
So, of course this has to lead somewhere…the long walks. Had one the other day with hubby. Every 18 months or so I ask him what he does and I honestly make a very concerted effort to pay attention. (I remember years ago when a girlfriend asked…
Congratulations to the 50,881 runners that braved chilling 30-mph winds at yesterday’s New York City Marathon! Prior to Sunday, 974,257 people had completed the 26.2-mile course throughout the five buroughs.
A week after the wet London Ride I went for a gently 3-5 k run, just to see how the legs and body were feeling after two weekends of pretty intense work. The run itself felt fine and nothing out of the ordinary, however it has left me ever since walking in pain with the culprit being the right knee (bit of an injury prone being it must seem from some of my previous posts!).
The pain over a couple of weeks was getting worse, with it being out the outside at first before magically shifting to the front at the base of the knee cap (the main focus of it now has shifted again to the inside/upper knee cap!).

I’ve got tried out, even so, to feature people who have consistently arrived at my consideration since my initial hitting the ground with weight lifting at grow older 04 inside 1961.

Dean Karnazes has always been intense. He races ultramarathons (loosely defined as any race longer than the traditional 26.2-mile marathon, but usually more than 50 miles) in part because regular marathons are just “too short” for him to be competitive.
I was on Pinterest this evening, looking for some worthy motivational and inspiration messages to both share with you all and to keep in my personal collection. It’s been awhile since I’d been on the site, but I happened to type in “Fitness” as my search term and these were some of the top images that popped up:
Nitpicking…dissecting…and shaming of the female body as a way to inspire fitness? Is that really the way we want to go? Is this truly inspirational, or are we playing on the fears and worries of many women who may already have a number of body issues. Is it not enough that we are bombarded daily with society’s standards of what beauty is? So now we have brought that same comparison and shame to the world of fitness.
