July 14, Bastille Day: Dedicated to fartleks

Another day, another 5-ish k

Playing catch-up with my husband

my duo-ing distance partner

Dedicated to randomly run, funny fartleks

Happy Bastille Day!

July 13: Dedicated to just another Manic Monday

Lost track of time today! 

My so-so distant, 
duo rousting-about run and phoJOG 

came after my husband reminded me

 It was already 8 pm! 

I ran some zig-zags and loop-arounds 

finished solo a final little bit 
to make it just surpass 5k

Dedicated to just another Manic Monday

July 12: Dedicated to Night Must Fall

My "By George I think she's got it!"

slow-mo socio-no-no distantly-oui-oui 

romp 'round with my spouse this sultry evening 

is dedicated to Night Must Fall 

(but the Sun Also Rises)
 

I think 

cross yer fingers, hold onto yer hats, folks 

that I have figured out how to work the GPS watchy-thingy 

well enough to suit my rather pedestrian 

(get it, PEDESTRIAN?) needs 
YAHOOEEE! 

July 11: Dedicated to Joe's Girl's. And to Joe. And to the Other Joe.

Erratic serpentine duo distant walk/run 
with the Soleus and the husband 
on another muggy miserable Maryland midsummer twilight. 
This was the day we would have had our morning Annapolis Striders Women's Distance Festival 5k, 
and the Run After the Women for the men runners. 
I would have started the race singing the national anthem. 
I would have seen my friends. 
I would have taken 'bout a hundred pics 
with my little red Olympus. 
I would maybe have had some watermelon afterwards, 
and most likely more than one frozen fruit bar. 
And brunch with Marian and Tony and Elyse. 
OK. Let it go. Just breathe. 
I dedicate tonight's endeavor to Joe's Girls. 
And to Joe. 
And to the Other Joe.

July 10: Dedicated to the GPS

My evening Thingamabob-y

duo-y

solo-y

distance-y 

slow-then-quicker

experimental foray into new technology

is dedicated to the Soleus, the Satellites, 

and to when-and-if I ever learn to work this thing

July 8: Dedicated to Contrasts

My ''does anybody really know what day it is'' 

duo-into-solo distant 

bumble around 

had me noticing the lights and shadows 

- brilliants and dims 

- brights and darks 

It was a good time of day for seeing 

things in sharp relief

Sharp RELIEF

I could sure use some of that relief

Dedicated to contrasts

Keeping things interesting 

in contrast to dullness

SHOED the Runner Gal!
