    Running and Angry Dog named Cinnamon

    I gotta tell ya…I’ve been very lazy about keeping up with my blog as of late.  I just haven’t been much in the mood for typing.  I wish I could just think my thoughts out onto my blog.  It would be so much easier than...

    Picture of the Day: Tomb at Bonaventure Cemetery

    I really don’t know why I chose this as the picture of the day. I took this picture during one of my runs through Bonaventure Cemetery some months ago.  I really like running there.  It is so beautiful and peaceful.  And, if you are into...

    Running with Buzz Lightyear

    I ran 13.71 miles yesterday in and all over Thunderbolt in 85 degree heat.  It was pretty darn awesome.  On top of the Thunderbolt bridge which spans the Wilmington River I came across a little buzz lightyear (pictured somewhere on this blog entry) lying on...

    Returning to my first love: My Mizunos

    I ran 5.52 miles today with my Mizunos.  It was weird to run in them again after a couple of months of running with VFFs.  It was very weird.  And, the funny thing was that I liked running in a convention running shoe, still.  It...

    Thunderbolt Running

    Gosh, it seems like forever since I last wrote an entry in my running blog.  Well, to be honest, I haven’t run much this month.  So far this month I’ve logged only 18.33 miles running.  That is not good at all.  Why am I running...

    Me & My VFF’s

    Well, I’ve been running with my vibram 5 fingers for a little over three months.  In those three months I’ve completed a half marathon in them & have logged 67.67 total miles since I bought them.  Contrary to misguided belief I have not gotten any...

    Bonaventure cemetery running

    I ran 4.49 miles today entirely in Bonaventure cemetery. Today was the closest I’ve been to mapping out the entire cemetery. That is one of my little goals – to run every pathway in Bonaventure cemetery.  I wonder how many miles that will be?  Maybe,...

  • Long 5 Finger Run…in the cold too.

    Long 5 Finger Run…in the cold too.

    Today was  soggy and cold and just a nasty day to be outdoors.  I ran anyway.  I ran 9.56 miles in Thunderbolt (where I live) with my vibram 5 fingers.  That was an experience.  My pinky toe on my right foot still aches.  The toenail...

  • Cemetery & Dairy Farm Running with no Stomach Problems! Yeah!

    Cemetery & Dairy Farm Running with no Stomach Problems! Yeah!

    Today I ran 9.12 miles in Thunderbolt…my stomping grounds. It was an excellent run. The weather was ideal, 71 degrees and very windy which helped keep me cool. I didn’t have any stomach problems today like I did yesterday and the last time I ran...

    Cemetery Running

    I ran five miles at the Greenwich and Bonaventure cemeteries today.  I intended to go longer but my stomach would not have it so.  Thirty minutes into my run my stomach began to gurgle and goggle and do other kinds of unpleasant things.  My last...
