730 Days

365 + 365

1 mile a day (at least) for 2 years straight.

This last week has been interesting. Never dug my car out, so I've been walking to and from work for the last week.

Dec 28: Prospect Park
Dec 29: Prospect Park
Dec 30: Prospect Park
Dec 31: Prospect Park

So I run in the park on my way home. Figure I'm walking about 3 miles a day (including the run). I feel a whole lot healthier this week. My body's feeling it though.

Happy New Year! Onto year three - and post 300! :)

Blizzard 2010

Ah, snow.

So much snow that my car was buried this morning. So I walked to work. And then, when I was walking home, I decided to do my run.

Dec 27: Prospect Park

Cowboy boots, winter coat. Yep. Got my run in. :)

Snowy & Bright

and may all your day-after-Christmases be white...

Snowstorm's here. Left CT at 9 am to get back to Brooklyn by 10:30, just as the snow was beginning to fall here. Waited until there was at least a coating on the road to go out to run around 1 pm.

Dec 26: Prospect Park 1 mile

Really have to clean my apartment. Really lacking in motivation to do so.

Walking & Running

Dec 25: Lima St Run

That was after walking 2 1/2 miles with Dad.

Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas Eve!

Dec 21: Around the Block
Dec 22: Around the Block
Dec 23: Around the Block
Dec 24: Prospect Park 1 mile

Home in CT running around with the family. Did all my Christmas shopping today with Dad. Merry Christmas All!

Productive? Not So Much...

Saturday, my "productive" day ended up being a 5 1/2 hour ICU/rad onc/hemorrhaging disaster of a day. So much for all the stuff I wanted to do.

Sunday, I got up and went to the hospital early. Rounded, radiated, and got out by 9:30 to get back home to do my run.

Dec 19: Prospect Park 1 mile

Then it was off to MSG to watch the UConn women win their 88th straight game. Go Huskies!

Today was a great OR day. Took 2 of the biggest, stickiest nodes that I've ever encountered yet off the IVC without getting into it. Maybe I can actually do this after all.

Dec 20: Around the block

My left knee hurts, I had something in my right shoe, but it's done. 11 days left of this year!

Sunny Days

Not warm days, mind you. But sunny ones.

Dec 18: Prospect Park 1 mile

My nighttime layers were a little too much, even though it was only 28 degrees out.

Today's supposed to be a productive day at the hospital. We'll see how that goes.

Ohh...

That was a long week.

Dec 13: Run around 8 pm after dealing with a crashing patient all day.
Dec 14: Run at 11:30 pm after a long day in OR.
Dec 15: Run at 11:30 pm after a dinner lecture.
Dec 16: Run at 9 pm after dinner with the team.
Dec 17: Run at 8 pm after another day in the office.

It's my weekend on and I've got lots to accomplish tomorrow. Plus, Sunday is UConn Basketball Day ~ going to watch the women win their 88th game to tie UCLA's record!

Long Island

This was a good, much needed weekend with friends.

Dec 10: Around the block
Then it was drinks with Patricia. Maybe a few too many drinks, actually.

Dec 11: Prospect Park 1 mile
Then it was off to LI. Met Jenny at Borders, then had lunch and a pedicure with Loren, then met up with Eva, Chris, Lexi, Penny, Lori and Brian for dinner at Harvards. Then went to Chris' and watched a movie and fell asleep on the couch. Woke up for breakfast at Maureen's Kitchen with LanNa, Diana, Cara, Loren and Brian and then went to the mall with the girls for a bit until I had lunch with Michael. Then I came home.

Dec 12: Prospect Park 1 mile
Now I'm trying to motivate myself to clean my apartment. In the interim, I'll watch tv on the computer.

708

Was thinking on my run tonight that I should have been around day 700. Turns out it was more like day 708.

Dec 9: Up the hill

That's 933 days left of fellowship too. The intersection of the number of days left of fellowship and the number of days I've run will probably be my next significant number day. :)

It's a Different Kind of Cold

See, I ran in true sub-zero weather last year at this time in Montana. How is it that I am COLD on my runs in 25-30 degree weather in NY?

Dec 8: Around the block

And my body can definitely run farther. My mind doesn't want to though. Might be the cold. And the late hour of the night...

Month 24

December. Wow. And COLD.

Nov 30: Up the hill
Dec 1: Around the block
Dec 2: Around the block
Dec 3: Up the hill at 4 am
Dec 4: Chicago treadmill run (around 8 minutes)
Dec 5: Chicago treadmill run (around 8 minutes)
Dec 6: Around the block
Dec 7: Around the block

Started doubling my shirt and pants (underarmour top and green zip with vest on top and long johns and tights on bottom) as well as wearing my face mask and hat. Winter is here...and I don't like it one bit!
