Moving on and settling down…all at once
1/2 Marathon Training: Day 1Posted by beth on August 14, 2010
Well, you’ll never believe it, but Josh and Josh and I got up and went running this morning. Now, by “got up,” I mean “woke up naturally,” and by “running,” I mean “running and walking, but mostly walking.” But still, for me, that’s pretty miraculous. Lauren started doing this “Couch to 5K” running program, and [...]
My Brain Has Fallen OutPosted by beth on July 8, 2010
To say that I’m “goal oriented” is a horrid, awful understatement. Without clearly defined, publicly documented goals and/or mortifying public consequences for not achieving said goals, I just sort of coast. The last time I really exercised was the Washington, D.C.

Open QuestionPosted by beth on June 7, 2010

In fact, I believe I’m actually down seven or eight now, which works for skinny jeans, so I guess I’ll get over it. Some of you have asked, however, how I have accomplished this. Well, I’ll tell [...]

I’ve definitely been busy all day, but when I look back over the past several hours, I can point to exactly two things that have gotten done: article prep and laundry. The laundry is self-explanatory, and the article prep just means I did a lot of the preliminary internet research necessary to write a bunch [...]
Better Early Than NeverPosted by beth on August 13, 2009
“Better early than never” is not usually my motto. “Better late,” maybe, or perhaps even, “meh…oh well,” but no one has ever accused me of being punctual, much less early. I had an algebra class in college once that I didn’t care that much about, and I often showed up 20-30 minutes late to the [...]
