Winter WonderLark, continues to be my favorite annual Lark street event. My little guy and I have gone three years in a row and we always have a good time.

Full moon run – at last!
Months after I first aspired to it, I finally found someone available and willing to take a longish full moon run. We got lucky with the weather as well as the brightness of the moon and had an inspiring, awesome run. Let me share the experience and challenging route we mostly enjoyed.

From jingle bells to a masquerade gala
Yep, just another day in the life. December dawned with an appropriate and picturesque dusting of snow, pretty to look at, but not necessarily fun to run on.

Don’t fence me in
Running around my neighborhood and the Whitehall Road area, I notice things. It is amazing how no two runs are exactly the same because there's always something new or different to mentally note. We've been so fortunate that all of the additions (The Cheese Traveler, All Good Bakers, the newish branch of the public library, … Continue reading Don’t fence me in
