Club Meetups and News
Me, talking about Chubby Mommy Running Club on The Pulse Network with my friend Fitarella! Thanks Jacqueline:
IronMan, Iron Mom, Iron Girl? I should do a triathlon? Me? Are you kidding? Apparently, the nice folks at Iron Girl are not kidding. They are sponsoring me for their Athleta Sprint Triathlon in Portland, OR on June 26th. So, I’m being brave and taking the plunge! This “Sprint Tri” race course consists a half [...]
The “My Run” movie is about a guy named Terry Hitchcock age 57, who ran 75 consecutive marathons in 75 consecutive days to help spread awareness for breast cancer. It’s playing in movie theaters nationwide for one night only, on March 31st, 2011. I’m going, and I hope you do to! You can find the [...]
We drove to the country. We ran. We ate waffles, we drank mimosas. And we laughed. It was a good Sunday! Thanks to Laura McClain of Run Momma Run, every delicious Off the Waffle was perfect, the Silvan Ridge Early Muscat wine was sweet and crisp, and the talk by Cathie Twomey Bellamy of the [...]
“I’m going to teach you how to run without using your legs,” said Keith McConnell at this week’s Sunday morning Chi Running Workshop at the Eugene Running Compnay. “You’ll just use your legs for balance, your body to move, and gravity for the rest.” Huh, I said to myself. This sounds like magic. I like magic. [...]
Wish: I want to run a half marathon. Fact: My middle-aged mom knees hurt if I run too much. Solution? Chi Running, said Robin, my running coach. That’s Chi as in Tai Chi, not Chai Tea. Is that just woo-woo stuff, or is it real? I asked. It’s real, she said. And then explained how [...]
I’m running the Eugene Half Marathon in May. So I say. At the moment. So I’d better get in shape, eh? My friend Robin, over at the IronMom blog is helping me train for it. We made a video today of the first “core” training session. Robin’s all about the full body workout stuff. She [...]
I went bowling today. I am terrible. Mostly gutter balls, but I got lucky once, and got a STRIKE so now I want to go again. We should start a bowling club! Anyone can join, just take pictures and share them with us. And tell us what your bowling name is. I think I’ll be [...]
We had a baby today! And a dog! Welcome to the club, Rebekah and Ruby. We did the three mile loop today for our Thursday Noon Run in Eugene, and ended up running for at least two miles, by our calculations (which-Robin-calculated-on-her-super-fancy-running watch-I-should-get-one) which made Rebekah and I quite happy, since we’re both starting from [...]
I originally posted this a year ago, on December 5, 2009, but when I saw the amazing Mizfitonline’s post about her daughter playing hopscotch and the health benefits of hopping today, I remembered that I actually started this International Society of Hopscotch. Perhaps it’s time to hop to it again? In my ongoing quest for fun fitness [...]
