Only 28 more days left of Winter. The first half of this Winter was actually pretty mild compared to the last few years. At least it was to me. This past month has been something else. We’re expecting even colder temps over the next couple days and then a “warm” 41 degree Sunday with rain. […]

In Neptune’s Wake
This last storm wasn’t too bad. It only dumped around 8 inches of snow here. Keri said the wind was insanely loud though. There’s more snow expected tomorrow. Will it ever end? I was able to get out and do a quick 30 minute run before the storm hit on Saturday. I was able to […]
14 degrees and running
It was a freezing 14 degrees out today but with another storm expected this weekend I just had to get a run in. The idea of not running for another week does not sit well with me. My last run was almost two weeks ago right before the second storm. Another storm hit right after that […]
Wild Thangs
While packing for our upcoming move, I found my “PsychoDaisy Songbook” binder. This is an old notebook binder that I have filled with old band lyrics, lists, and notes going as far back as Summer of 1992. It wasn’t until 1993 that the band really came together and actually set aside practice times. We only did two […]
The Run before the Storm
My last two runs were on Jan. 23rd which I neglected to blog about. I ran twice that day because I knew the blizzard was coming and I would probably not be able to run during the week. Turns out I was totally right so I’m glad I got out there. Both routes below: […]
Roasted Poblano Corn Chowder
The Snowmageddon Snowpocalypse snow storm that passed through has kept us mostly indoors for the past couple days. We were totally prepared with a fully-stocked fridge, freezer, and pantry. Cold weather like this calls for soup, and I have been meaning to try this particular one ever since I saw it in boxed form at […]
100+ Miles
According to the app I use to map my runs, I have now run more than 100 miles when you combine the last 30 or so workouts. This is pretty great. I wish I had logged some of the previous runs with the app so I could have the actual total. Tonight’s run was actually […]
A Break in the Winter
We finally got a break in this Winter weather with a “warm” 50 degree day today. Sweet! It was supposed to rain all afternoon but we really lucked out and didn’t feel a drop. It’s a good thing too because today Keri started her new Chicken Tender job in the East Side. She’ll be tending […]
Fast and Frigid
Well, maybe not super fast but faster than usual. Tonight’s pace was 11:30/mile. It is cold out there. I find that after a minute or so I’m warmed up enough that the cold doesn’t bother me. The only problem is breathing that cold air. I wear a balaclava which allows me to cover my nose […]
