I'll be playing a bit of catch up this week, but by Friday, we should be back on track here on the blog. In real time, however, I would like to take a moment to point out that, since I began Couch 2 5K, I have completed a total of 50 miles! It's not a huge number in the grand scheme of things, ...
couch 2 5k: week 6, day 2 {4.3.2013} & happy 50 mile-versary
putting a cramp in my training schedule
No one like to have their fitness (or any) plans sidelined, especially when they're working towards something specific. However, I am faced with a big decision that is going to put me on ice for about two weeks, and I'm really not happy about it. The tonsils have to go. I went in to the ENT ...
