Some Spooky Runfessions For October

October 30, 2026      Leave a Comment

Here we are again. The end of another month that brings us closer to a new year. What? How has this happened? I feel like I say the same thing every year.

For this month’s trip to the runfessional, let’s join up with  Marcia’s Healthy Slice…

Let’s Start By Runfessing…

That the kitchen renovation is going well, but it’s making me want to rip everything out of the house and organize. It’s not a great feeling. And I think that today will be spent deconstructing the entire garage.

Next, I’ll Runfess…

That I drove two hours to see A play in his first college concert, then turned around and drove two hours back home. The show was outside in the middle of the day, and I got a little burned, but it was an incredible performance and it was the best forty minutes of my week.

My Next Runfession Is…

That I think I spent more nights outside my house than in my house this month. Obviously, with all the construction, that’s probably a really great thing, but I am also looking forward to spending a few weeks at home. We’ve got one more trip on the agenda, and then we are good to go.

I Runfess…

That running feels very much on the back burner. My streak is still alive and I am getting out for walking and running miles every day, but I don’t have any races on the calendar, and I’m not super worried about it right now. Things are just so hectic, and working in a race is a little daunting right now. I’m really hoping to do a Turkey Trot, but I won’t be devastated if I don’t.

Finally, I Would Runfess…

That I am obsessed with Dungeon Crawler Carl. I don’t know how it happened, but I picked up the first book in the series and I can’t put it down. I’m on the third volume, and going strong. While it’s very much not my typical genre, it’s fresh and creative and surprisingly well written. I guess if I can’t make it to book club, I can be deeply invested in a book series.

Do you have anything to runfess? Have you joined up with the Crawlers?

Drinking in that sunshine for sure! It was a bea Drinking in that sunshine for sure! 

It was a beautiful morning that turned quickly into a beautiful day. Sundays are hard because they are immediately  followed by Mondays, and Mondays are hard.

Lots to catch up on this week! April is chock full of holidays, birthdays, days off, and events, so let’s get to it!

About this morning… I was up and out early to dri About this morning…

I was up and out early to drive to Flagler Beach for the #Missionpossible5k.

It was a small, well organized event, with an easy-to-follow course (the last mile was almost exclusively an ocean view), with great shirts and swag.

I was really pleased with my performance, and even more pleased with this beach sunrise. I’ll share more on the #RunnersRundown on Wednesday, so stay tuned!

Where did you run or race this weekend?

#Running #streakingwiththecoolkids
Oh, hello long sleeves. I’m here for it. So good Oh, hello long sleeves. I’m here for it.

So good to stretch the legs today. I was super sore after a @runsmartofficial cross training session last night, and needed to just get out there and let the fresh air work its magic.

What are you up to today? I really need to take a moment with my calendar and get some plans locked into place.

Check out those blue skies! I got to sleep in AND Check out those blue skies!

I got to sleep in AND take advantage of some cooler temps. It really didn’t warm up until my last mile and that was just fine.

I feel like this month and next are really just flying by. So much is going on, and I want so badly to enjoy it all, including the crisp, sunny days where we find them!

Kind of a meh day. I got in some walking miles and Kind of a meh day. I got in some walking miles and some balance and strength work through @runsmartofficial.

Tomorrow will be cooler and more productive for sure!

Happy Monday! I don’t know about you all, but you Happy Monday!

I don’t know about you all, but your girl is TIRED. It is so hard to roll out of bed some mornings. Ugh. 

I managed (finally) and banked six miles in some gross humidity. And now it’s time for some self care and then back to work.

Also. We have somehow acquired a pecan tree? Any tips on the growth and care of this would be greatly appreciated!

#Running #streakingwiththecoolkids
Sunday fun day! Just a short walk to start the da Sunday fun day!

Just a short walk to start the day and work out some stiffness. Some days, my ankle just doesn’t want to cooperate 🫤

I have been making graphics and content all day for a client, and now I’m about to do hair and makeup for a little event. Wheee! 

This week is going to be BUSY! There’s a lot of changes to the regular routines (nails, a digital learning day, after school and weekend programming) and I have a race on Saturday and bocce ball on Sunday! 

Who else is ready to dive in?!
