  • Sweet, sweet victory!

    It was a hard fought game, with neither team yielding a thing for nearly two full periods of hockey. Then the Ringers broke open the scoring with just 8 seconds left in the second. We answered back with two quick ones in the beginning of the third, and then we traded goals – they scored, […]

  • Hockey Playoffs!

    This weekend was the playoffs for one of my two hockey teams (the Blazing Blades). We won our games on Friday and Saturday nights, but lost our game this afternoon, giving us a 2-1 record for the playoffs. The team that beat us (the Ringers) also had a 2-1 record, which meant that we had […]

  • Goals and 101 Update

    So, I’m staying up until 4 am to watch the men’s hockey Olympic gold medal game – Go Canada! My sleeping pattern is totally messed up right now – for various reasons, I didn’t get a lot of sleep this week and have been sooo tired all week and then last night after work I […]

  • Dear Treadmill, I’m Breaking Up With You

    Dear Treadmill, We’ve been seeing a lot of each other lately, what with me being in a running study that required me to run 4 days a week, but the one I really wanted to be with – The Outdoors – was too cold and dark before and after work, which are the only times […]

  • Reflections from a Running Study Guinea Pig

    Today marked the last of the Sunday group runs for the running study (which is looking at if there are differences between males and females in overtraining injuries while training for a 10 km race) that I’ve been taking part in over the past 11 weeks. There are just three more training runs left until our […]

  • A Blogworthy Bethmas

    A “happy birthday/congrats on finishing your MBA” card from my lovely friend, soon-to-be-Dr. Martha! Yesterday was Bethmas. Apparently I was so busy preparing and then celebrating that I never even gave you the usual Bethmas Eve greeting ((Though I did tweet it.)). But now I’m here to give you a recap. I decided that, since […]

  • 90-day Fitness & Accountability Challenge

    When I was in Toronto at Christmas, I had the good fortune of hanging out with Dr. Dan and Mr. Rick. There was dinner and beer and shopping and other such things of a celebratory nature. And there was also a discussion of an idea Rick had come up with: the 90-day Fitness & Accountability […]

  • For Your Television Viewing Pleasure

    Hey, remember that time I played hockey for 10 days straight and there was a documentary made about it? Well, if you missed it at the NINE different film festivals it’s been to and you haven’t bought a copy yet, you can catch it in the comfort of your own home on the Knowledge Network this week! It will […]

  • Themes for 2014: Reflection, Mindfulness, and Biking to Work

    In addition to my 2014 goals, I decided to have some themes for this year. Themes are the new black. Reflection During the past two years while I’ve been in school (in addition to working full-time at a job that requires lots of brain work), something I’ve had precious little of has been time. I’ve […]
