Amazing Race

Thursday (Day 22); Friday (Day 23); Saturday/Sunday (Days 24/25); Monday (Day 26) Thursday: On Thursday, we went up to the Mountain Home Inn, where we were staying for our anniversary and my birthday. Unfortunately, it was quite expensive and the physi …

I really like Anthony. He’s the morning trainer at The Cave. I am getting to know the “gang” that comes in in the mornings – I don’t think they know my name particularly, but they know “who I am.” Today in the warmup we had to do a hang from the rope f …

Dang, TWENTY days? I’m pretty pleased with that. I mean – 20??? So Day 18 was Sunday, and H’s real first day home from Switzerland. We did a bunch of stuff around the house and all that jazz. We also walked to San Anselmo (H is still on “European time” …

So here’s a quickie check-in . . . Wednesday (Day 14) I went to Crossfit in the morning, and some of the folks from the Monday “friendly uncaring” class actually did the whole “wow, you came back” thing which was nice. I did tell them that since I coul …

so yesterday was Day 12. I was running around going to my nutritionist, chiropractor (threw out my neck SLEEPING – OMG!), walk with my friend Francine (about an hour), then Crossfit. The guy who was the coach is the guy who I was going back and forth o …

okay, so today the things I am doing “positively” are: 1. I’m going to walk (so funny just typed “drive” – subliminal desire???) to San Anselmo and get a coffee and walk back, and 2. I’m going to a New Moon with Sue today at 4:00 actually here in Marin …

OK – so – to prevent myself from watching more Murder She Wrote reruns, I did the sun salutations from WaiLana.com – which I have saved from PBS. For goodness’ sake – I’m so inflexible. This is ridiculous. A half hour of slow-slow-slow sun salutations …

Yeah if you’re an old fart like me just reading that will get an earworm going, if not, click HERE… SO today – Day 10 …. ‘The big One-Oh!’ (LOL!) … I did the 14 mile run with Team In Training. And yes, I had done something odd with my groin muscl …
