That's All She Wrote

Or at least all I'm going to write for a while. Hypogastric embolization paper-submitted. Synovial sarcoma-submitted. UPSC-resubmitted (after 3 rejections). HgA1c-revisions submitted, fingers crossed. Leg pain-submitted.

All my projects from the last year-wrapped up and submitted, with the exception of Jaffe's ovarian cancer paper. Which means when I return from WAGO, my focus is thesis and clinical trial. Plus finishing up the little projects I've got going on, but these will be my two big ones. And focusing on karate, getting a job, and my all around well being. Oh, and studying for the boards.

June 25: Prospect Park before karate
June 26: Prospect Park after karate

Tomorrow morning, it's off to the beach. :)

Morning Bike Races

I love watching the bike races on Sunday mornings while I do my run. I usually catch them twice - once while I run and once when I'm done. Snapped some pictures this morning as they sped by.

June 24: Prospect Park 1 mile

Today, it's finish some papers and get ready for the 2 day week I have ahead!

Morning Run, Afternoon Penn

Pennsylvania that is. Off to visit Scotty, Leigh, my godson Lucas and the peanut growing in Leigh's belly.

June 23: Prospect Park 1 mile

I better start getting my mileage up again soon. Rock and Roll 10K is in October and it'll be here before I know it!

After the Storm

Finally, the thunderstorms broke the heat. I did my run after the second wave, and though I'm still sweating, it's a much better temp.

June 22: Prospect Park 1 mile

Sparring

I kinda like being able to run my mile before karate. Makes me sweaty and all that for class, and when Sensei Ross teaches, I have to run again, but then I don't have to worry about doing it after.

June 21: ATB by karate

Tomorrow morning I head out to SB to meet with Griffin about my job. Then it's dinner with Tana to celebrate her boards!

Back at the Dojo

Finally made it to 2 classes this week. And plan to spar tomorrow night. So glad to be back.

June 17: Prospect Park before heading to CT for Father's Day
June 18: 1 mile ATB by karate
June 19: Same
June 20: Prospect Park 1 mile

Hot hot hot today! 97. Welcome summer!

Blue Sky Saturday

It is perfectly beautiful out today. Bright blue sky, sun, not humid but warm. A perfect beach day or park day or general sit-outside-and-play day.

June 16: Prospect Park 1 mile

And now I'm sitting on the bench outside the park contemplating life.

Research Days Gone By

When it comes down to it, I want to come back to the 'Brook. Everyone knows that. Who knows if the powers that be want me back, but in my heart, I know I want to be there.

June 13: Bally's around the track like old days
June 14: Prospect Park 1 mile
June 15: Prospect Park 1 mile

Jenny won Stony Brook's research day. So proud of her, and so glad I decided to go to the night to see her get the award. Left me to run at Bally's like old times, except now it's a run down stripped down gym. That at least still had the track upstairs. And after an outfit shopping spree at Target, I looked semi-presentable. And had a mostly great time.

Heading to LI

One research down, one to go!
June 12: ATB
Now it's time to go home to the 'Brook with a smile on my face. I've got a line now. :)

Downstate Graduation Day

It's 364 days til my graduation...
But today's Tana's graduation celebration!
June 11: ATB

June 8: ATB
June 9: ATB
June 10: Prospect Park 1 mile

Looking forward to no more weekday call and heading off to the lab!

Oh What A Week!

Everything happens for a reason. But sometimes the reason is. Your are stupid and make bad decisions.

June 4: ATB after karate
June 5: hill repeats 2am
June 6: Mile by Methodist
June 7: ATB

May 31: ATB in the AM
