mystery of water inside rainproof jacket

It wasn't raining tonight. So when I saw moisture on the inside of my jacket again, it took me a split second to realize…yuck, sweat. Well, not yuck because sweating is normal. So my top does wick moisture away just to be trapped by my jacket. Duh. Should I poke holes in the armpit or…

39mins 3.63mi

This route had a lot of hills including 1 long downhill ending with a steep uphill. So it was good. At the start of the run, and I was on the sidewalk at the time, a truck stopped and the driver opened his window and yelled out, "Great running gear!" I saw his lights about…

honey at 60 calories a tablespoon

I've been drinking lots of fluids with the help of honey. I ran out of this ginger powder so I started using these teabags which taste like ginseng. I continued with adding a teaspoon of honey with each glass. Tonight, as I prepared my pre-sleep drink, I noticed that half the jar of honey was…

sick with period

I was right. My period came this afternoon. Early this morning at around 4am, I went to gargle with salt water as my throat was in bad shape. I continued to do that a few times and remembered Thieves Oil. On our trip to San Francisco, I had gotten sick and my sister had suggested…

32 mins in the night fog

I felt like I was in a movie tonight. I ran a little faster (it was cold) and had my bike light flickering the whole time (fog was heavy). Besides my chocolate croissant that I had for breakfast, I have been trying to be healthy. For lunch, I had quinoa, bocconcini, 1 Roma tomato, 1…

walking feels longer

It was so beautiful today that I forced myself to get some air. I had to take a break from knitting. Anyways, I should save that for after dark. Plus, I've spent yesterday unraveling that bobbled cardigan. This morning was spent on documenting all my knitted pieces in better light (instead of in the washroom).…

31mins last night (4.3km/2.68mi), 40mins tonight, 6.16km/3.32mi

It took me 5 minutes to recall my route yesterday. I've been really bad with logging it in online and in my agenda. It's all that knitting. For the last 2 days, I've been contemplating what to do with that bobbled cardigan. Do I take it apart or turn it into a vest? I took…

32mins, 5km/3.14mi

Tonight, I tore myself away from my knitting to run before it got too dark. I had no options as I ate roast turkey with stuffing, potatoes and gravy for lunch. I went down this long hill so that I could go this stretch of uphill. I went past my usual turn off and kept…

30 mins, 5.54km/3.44mi

I left the house without my watch so I used my phone to time my run. I had expected a longer time since I did some extra flat surface running. My back hurts from all the sitting. Yes, I'm still knitting that cardigan. I had picked up from the hem to knit more ribbing. After…

42 mins, 6.26km/3.89mi

Okay, I've been obsessed with knitting this oversized cardigan lately. I omitted the bobbles on the front ribbing because they remind me of cow teats and I really don't need any visual interest around my chest area. I knitted it in medium but it's really way too big (yes, even though it's supposed to be…
