With an early wake up for a morning flight back to San Fran there was no time for a workout Sunday morning. The Charlotte airport was really quiet when I got there - believe it or not I was the ONLY person in the security line. For some reason they felt the need to pat-down …
Working on a Saturday
Somehow I managed to fall asleep at 10:30 pm est (7:30pm pst) and woke up with time to head to the gym for a quick 3 mile run and some abs before getting ready for our meeting on Saturday. Then I set up shop in the back of our conference room to distract myself with …
Business Trip
Friday was a full day of travel and I mean full. 8:30 am I was picked up from my apartment in San Francisco to go to the airport and then landed at 7:00 pm in Charlotte, NC. My flight was actually enjoyable. I read, did crosswords, listened to music, talked with my neighbor, and even …
Garage driving 101
I am working all weekend at a training session for volunteers in Charlotte, NC so yesterday I only spent a few hours at the office and planned to enjoy a relaxing afternoon filled with a a long run. Well, a 7 mile run did occur but only after a driving detour to the Marin Headlands. …
Alumni Dinner
Wednesday was the day I remembered I love eggs. After an arm workout posted by Julie, I came home and made this fantastic egg sandwich: Sandwich thin Egg whites 1 tbsp of nutritional yeast and of course KETCHUP, yum This, plus leftovers from last night, fueled me for the day. While it was snowing in the east …
Sunshine on a cloudy day
The California sun took the day off yesterday. The clouds rolled in just in time to accompany some unfortunate news in my work world but I am taking advantage of the situation and making it work for me - more on this in the next couple of days. Yesterday's rainy/cloudy day in the bay inspired …
M-O-N-D-A-Y
L-O-N-G Those are the letters that spell out the word that you just read, LONG. That is how I would describe yesterday. I got up nice and early to get in a 4 mile run before making it to work at 8 am. I prefer running outside over the treadmill, but sometimes it's nice to …
Snowboarding, Sitting and Sporting
Hard to believe that only yesterday morning I was waking up to ride the ski lift up to see this view: We enjoyed the mountain all morning with another perfect day of clear weather. Right around noon my legs were done and we were ready to pack up and hit the road. Once again the …
A day on the slopes
SNOW! Well, no new snow but there was enough already on the mountain to ski and snowboard. We woke up and ate some breakfast to fuel us for the day. I had some banana and peanut butter! (hot sauce not included in this complete breakfast - it was just very tiny and I needed to …
Room with a view
Instead of waking up around 6 am and making breakfast and lunch and hopping on a bus downtown to the office, I woke up without an alarm and sat down on my couch to answer emails. After an hour of checking in with work I took a nice long run by the bay (7.25 miles) …
