Best not to forget

There are basic rules
Cut toenails before a race
Best not to forget

Double dog dare

Running in blue jeans
It was a double dog dare
Didn’t slow me down

Have to give a shout out to Jill at Jogging Jeans @joggingjeans and marathon blue jean runner Dan @12in12in12dan for the inspiration and Ragnar Relay for the most fun I have every year.

Stupid sprained ankle

From one of my favorite but often injured Ragnar teammates, Alex Hristov, also a proud Canadian.

Stupid sprained ankle,
Too bad: needed for running
But not for drinking

Run, girl, run!

Even though my mom is wrong in her assessment of the hills I’m about to run, I appreciate her encouragement, and even more so that she put it in haiku form. Enjoy one from Marcie Neuman.

Hills are not a prob
Easy, breezy. Run, girl, run!
Don’t forget the beer
