[tweetmeme source=”elizabethev” only_single=false] There’s absolutely no point to this post. Truth be told, I took a picture of this lizard thing at Disney’s Animal Kingdom just so I could use that title. I was going to save it for a special occasion, but I couldn’t…

Today: 26.2 miles of smiles… Part II.
If you like to do things in order (you’re probably one of those people who reads the directions), and you’re wondering what happened to the first 20 miles, feel free to start with Part I. Or maybe you just want to dive in, you wild…

Today: 26.2 miles of smiles… Part I.
Here it is, folks. The post you’ve all one or two people have been waiting for. I thought about naming this post How to Run a Marathon with IBS, or A port-a-potty marathon with some running breaks gingerly thrown in for fun…. but I don’t…

Today: I get by with a little help from my friends.

Today: I have a good feeling about this.
[tweetmeme source=”elizabethev” only_single=false] I don’t know about you, but I have a feeling 2011 is going to be one for the record books. Or, the comic books at the very least. We ushered out 2010 with our last long run with Team in Training, as…

Today: Strolling through a snowy Boston.
Thank goodness for a good pair of boots and garaged parking. Otherwise I’d be stranded. Or have soggy socks. And a broken back. Shoveling out my car is so 2009. Those were the days when I lived in Brookline and had a primo parking spot……
