[tweetmeme source=”elizabethev” only_single=false]I had every intention of waking up early this morning and seizing the day, but ten o’clock rolled around and I was still snug in bed. The shock of single digit temperatures certainly woke me (and my furry sidekick) up in a hurry.…

Today: You gotta let your soul shine.
[tweetmeme source=”elizabethev” only_single=false]I haven’t missed a single day of running this year. Mostly because there’s only been a single day this year. I cranked up the music this morning (including my favorite warm-up jam, The Return to Innocence, straight from 1994), and headed for the…

Today: Frenchie karaoke.
[tweetmeme source=”elizabethev” only_single=false]Look no further, the next American Idol is sprawled out on my sofa. After months of rehearsing this song on the streets of South Boston as fire trucks fly by, Clark is finally ready to film his first music video. http://youtu.be/SuDnm6SQwno No French…

Today: A day late, a mile and a half short.
[tweetmeme source=”elizabethev” only_single=false]3.1 plus 9.4 does not equal 14. Even I know that. I woke up Saturday feeling the effects of all of those sprints, lunges and squats at Fighter Conditioning and decided to delay my long run by one day. I planned to crank…

Today: Who are you? Who, who, who, who?

On Saturday night, as I tried to quell my pre-race jitters, I flipped through the channels on our hotel television to one of the few English-language programs…

Today: A tartey for the party.
[tweetmeme source=”elizabethev” only_single=false]After having such a great run on the Harbor Walk last weekend, I thought it might be fun to bring a few pals along. Tina, Ali, Anne and I tackled six miles this morning, running from Southie to Charlestown and back. It’s sort…

Today: Glove up.
[tweetmeme source=”elizabethev” only_single=false] I like to think of myself as a peaceful person. I tend to gravitate towards balance and calm, and shrink away from hand-to-hand combat. Fighting on television, in movies and in real life (obvi) makes me extremely uneasy. Magical violence is especially…

Today: A pugly start to the weekend.
[tweetmeme source=”elizabethev” only_single=false]Nick and I got to Castle Island early yesterday morning, only to be confronted by an angry deliriously happy mob of pugs. We met our friends Tina and Mal, and their pug Murphy, for the inaugural Pug Rescue of New England 5k, a small,…

Today: Service from hell.
[tweetmeme source=”elizabethev” only_single=false]I woke up this morning and thought, Oh good. We’re still alive. Nick and I took Clark for a nice long walk around Castle Island and then to BYOD for a much needed oatmeal bath. That little dude gets stinky in a…
