We are living in scary times, friends. I don't know about you, but I feel anxious about the state of our country and the relationships we have internationally. It seems like a long time since I've woken up without having to wonder what kind of outrageous statement or action with which Donald Trump has greeted … Continue reading Telling the truth – in Albany

Lunar b*tches do Las Vegas
The lunar b*tches ran tonight and it was blissful. The air felt damp in a delicious way and we ran well, loose and comfortable. With two miles left, I tossed out Las Vegas and the massacre which occurred there today. Like our pace, our thoughts were in synch. We wondered why those kind of weapons … Continue reading Lunar b*tches do Las Vegas

I don't understand the appeal of Donald Trump, but I have to respect the fact that 63 million Americans voted for him. Of course, according to Pew Research, that's about 2.8 million less than Clinton won, but whatever. It's done. My question, and I'll reiterate - is this what you voted for? Did you vote … Continue reading Is this what you voted for?
