Running

You may remember my blog post about how hard it is to run with a mask and how I felt after having spent the spring in the countryside of New Jersey during the early times of the Pandemic. This is what I wrote, “I hadn’t understood how lucky I was until we came back to […]

As you know New York City was hit very hard with Covid and had almost 600 dead and 6000 cases per day in April and May. When my fellow New Yorkers lost their lives- may their memories be blessings- or went into lockdown, my husband, dogs, and I packed everything up and went to live […]

First I want to express my sorrow for the 32823 Americans who are included in the 154,350 worldwide count of those who have died so far, due to the COVID 19 Pandemic. These are staggering numbers. We don’t even know their faces. I extend my deepest sympathy to everyone who has lost family and friends. […]

I’ve had an interesting learning experience the last few months. I’ve been running in Altra Torin’s for years and I love them. But I had heard so many good things about the Altra Escalante that I really wanted to try them. It seems that everyone is talking about this shoe and it has been rated […]

Yesterday was a gorgeous Sunday and I decided to go for a run in Central Park. I was especially looking forward to my run because I knew that the cherry trees and magnolia trees were blooming. But what I didn’t think about was that it was exactly 7 years since my mother died. I was […]

One of my goals this year is to be a little more adventurous. I want to run in different places even if it means I have to take the train to get to a new route. We New Yorkers are known for wanting everything right at our fingertips. If it’s not within a block or […]
