Who Am I to Judge? Team Devil Horns Takes on the Quad Cities: A race report →. September 7, 2010. I mentioned in my last post (way back in July) that I like to use this blog to record/remember things I’ve done. So, here’s a quick re-cap of August 2010:. August 6– Pond day with Erin, Kim, Jamie: Perfect weather. Perfect day. Most amazing Frito/peanut butter/chocolate “dip” ever. Ah-mazing.

Who Am I to Judge? Foto Friday: Warrior Dash x2. Things that currently bug me, grammar edition →. Humble Pie: Kracker Classic 5K Race Report. June 28, 2010. I ran the Kracker Klassic 5K this weekend in my hometown (there is no link–that’s how small this race is! I think this is my 6th 5K, so I should be fairly used to them by now, right? From last month. I figured if I could finish under 32:00 I’d have an “official” PR to report. No dice. For crying out loud! I r an a half marathon. Damn it, I should be ...

Who Am I to Judge? Team Devil Horns Takes on the Quad Cities: A race report. September 27, 2010. This past Sunday, some friends and I ran the Quad Cities Marathon Relay. For those of you out-of-staters, the Quad Cities are: Moline and Rock Island, IL and Davenport and Bettendorf, Iowa. (Oh, who am I kidding I had to look that up. I’m from Illinois and I had no clue.). Packet pick up/pre-race went pretty smoothly. A nice local lady recommended the Blue Cat Brew Pub. My leg was the middle leg, so I wasn’t ...

Who Am I to Judge? Foto Friday: Fun with Photoshop. On body image, sports, and fashion →. 131 @ 31: Illinois Half Marathon Race Report. May 3, 2010. Wow… I’ve read so many race reports and now that it’s time to write one of my own, I’m not sure where to start. First things first, I guess: I ran the 2nd Annual Illinois Half Marathon. On Saturday. I finished in 2:40:27. Not my goal time. Not even my. Finish time. But, truth be told: I’m not upset. It was soooooooooooooooooooooo much fun! She and I were at ...

Who Am I to Judge? Things that currently bug me, grammar edition. August 2010 →. July 20, 2010. Derby is pretty much consuming my life. We drafted a 3rd team, the Damagin’ Dames and got 2 great new players on our team. Our league is now a WFTDA Apprentice League. This is a big deal for a 7-month old league. We had our first intra-league scrimmage vs. the newbies from the Circle City Socialites. The first travel team bout is August 21 vs. The St. Chux Derby Chix. I’m signed up for the Run 4 Raley. You kno...

Who Am I to Judge? Foto Friday: Dressing my best. Derby Debut →. How to PR a 5K. May 17, 2010. Sign up–and train for– your first half marathon. To your boyfriend. Suggest that you run the 10K relay as a twosome. Subtly infer that you will beat him. Run your first half marathon. Live to tell ( and write. Decide that the twosome is a dumb idea. Tell boyfriend it won’t work out for scheduling reasons. Have boyfriend convince you to re-consider. Confirm with him that he’s serious. Drink lots of coffee. Arriv...

Who Am I to Judge? Humble Pie: Kracker Classic 5K Race Report. Things that currently bug me, grammar edition. July 1, 2010. In an effort to prove that I have more things to talk about than running and derby, here are some grammar gripes. All of them (with the exception of #2) were witnessed in ONE day of facebook postings. I’d like to copy/paste the postings here, but there’s always a chance I could embarrass someone and lose a reader. And I can’t really afford that! 3– Nouns as verbs. Or calling out one...
