(running tights + running shoes + sporty long sleeve = POSER misfit)   Once upon a time, in a land where it was hotter than a motherfucker something really hot, there lived a woman who loved the iron. A twenty year long torrid love affair kind of love.   And yet, on those nights when sleep [...]

(my re-found love is now always ready & waiting by the front door)   I frequently lament how I dont love the cardio. I do it (for my heart and for my daughter.  Im a firm believer once we become parents we forfeit the option of losing our mojo). Yet everysinglesolitaryday theres a huge internal [...]

For those of you who may not know, this is a compression sleeve: (Im lobbying for a TATTOO-pattern Misfit Sleeve!) I already knew I loved me some Zensah compression apparel. I love my Zensah compression skirt & sports bra: I adore my PINK Zensah compression tank-top: I’m painfully aware (literally & metaphorically) I’m not a [...]

(this is my kind of running) The Tornado & I were out ambling around Austin recently when she stopped abruptly, turned, looked at me and stated: Mama, you need to start running. Needless to say, since this sentiment was shared in her not soft five year old voice, it garnered more than a few horrified [...]

It seems the collective you wonder if my move. every day. something. optimally 30 minutes. day in and out. year in and out. until death. philosophy is something to which I actually adhere. [...]

Running for gym, track & treadmill haters (guest post)

Thursday, November 11, 2010

9 Comments

Let’s face it: gyms are stinky, tracks are so boring you’re lucky to make it around ten times before falling asleep, and treadmills are just ridiculous. Who wants to run on a conveyor belt? Most of us humans are under the impression that we’re not pieces of luggage, so treadmills are out of the question. [...]

(Why yes, that IS both my chagrin-face & what Id have worn to run with Jared.) Oh people. It’s much to my chagrin that Im writing this post from the ATX. Sure I love me some Austin. Yes I adore me some being with the family time. But between the (royal) two of us Im [...]

(which really means Fewer Word Wednesday…this time with more giveaway) Zensah offered me the opportunity to try their compression running skirt/sports bra. Note the smile. I like’y being compressed. The obligatory butt rear view of the Zensah skirt (and my need for a haircut). I liked running in the skirt, but I think Id LOVE [...]
