- I've already set my DVR to record the NYC marathon recap on NBC, just in case I don't get to watch it when it airs. Yes, I'm that geeky.
- I ran in shorts again yesterday evening and I'm crossing my fingers that the weather holds so I can do the same tonight. Love the late-October runs in shorts. Such a treat.
- My last CSA delivery was yesterday. Seems so . . . final. I'm thinking about whether or not to purchase a share again next year. This year, I split a share with a friend, but she's not planning to buy-in next year. Decisions, decisions . . .
- This here Happy Runner is not planning to run any races right now. None. I had been planning to do at least one more 5K this year and a 15K. Then I dropped them from my "schedule." I don't know, just wasn't feeling it. Ever since I dropped the races? Wow -- my runs have felt great. Free and easy and fun. Loving it! I think it is exactly what I need right now.
- Go Yankees!!!! (Sorry, Phillies fans -- although I do love your Phillie Phanatic.)

Aren't runs with shorts in the fall great! I've been able to do that the last couple of mornings and it has been such a treat!
and yay for you for great runs lately...it makes all the hard work worth it to have those runs that just feel good doesn't it?!
I also feel better about my runs when I don't have a race coming up. It's nice to not have any anxiety and just run!
I'm racing a 10K tomorrow and am hoping for shorts... it would be cool to do a Halloween race with bare legs, never done that. And I know EXACTLY what you mean about not having a race coming up. It's liberating, actually. Good for you!
Hmmmm not racing and feeling better about running.. What a concept??
I tried running in short, my knees were yelling at me the whole time "Put tights on you crazy lady!" Did you know knees could yell, well they can.
Have a great weekend!
Not so geeky...I am recording the original showing and the recap just in case I somehow get on camera! Haha! Have a great weekend!
"Free and easy and fun." I need some of that! Five weeks to marathon....
I've forgotten what fun feels like!
I had to play catch up on your last month of posts. I'm glad your toe and knee are better and sorry the 5K didn't go as planned. I hate it when I have to walk in a 5K because I can't get the pace quite right.
Sorry, but I have to say it - go Phils!
(And that's both from me as a Phillies fan, and my red sox loving husband)
OH thanks I need to DVR the NYCM too.
So sorry, girl, but...
... GO PHILLIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yankees?? We might have to break up.
Ooh, tjhanks for the NYC reminder..
Got to love the carefree awesome runs in SHORTS! Enjoy.
Love your 5 things!! Isn't the weather wonderful? :D
That was the first time that I watched it on tv, I loved watching all the runners. It is so motivating :-)
i pvr'd the recap too, have yet to watch it though...
looooved watching NYC yesterday :) sooo happy your runs are feeling so great!
We're mid-70s to 80s during the day all week, I am planning on making use of some of that beautiful weather...
Enjoy your time off. I felt a little lost at first once I had no race to look forward to, and then realized I was free to do whatever distance/speed/cross training I liked. It was like...whew! :)
glad your running is going well! maybe you just needed a little "pressure-free" time. not that you were weighing yourself down, but somehow having a couple races hanging over us can get under our skin more than we think! these mild temps are quite welcome to hang around as long as they want :)
