    Bella and I got out for 7 road miles last night.  Pretty nice run -- no wind, quiet, peaceful.  Today is a SRD.

     

    QOTD: What's the state of your refrigerator?  Do you have molding leftovers from 1998, or just a bottle of ketchup?  What's the oldest thing you have in there?

     

    I'm usually pretty good about not letting things go bad -- easier to do as a single person, I imagine.  I think I have some chia seeds in there form 2010(ish)?  I dunno, it was during the Born to Run craze.  I have no idea if they're still good or not, but they look okay so I just keep hanging onto them...  I have some old beer that I never meant to age too, but that will get consumed eventually.  Sometimes I am shocked by how much crap I have in my fridge just for myself, but I rarely go out to dinner.

    Running is dumb.

      Morning!  Yesterday's run didn't happen, mostly because of an unplanned appt that I was able to fit in last minute.  However, today is looking much better.   I'll get out for those 4 miles, with intervals.

       

      qotd:  Oh Mandy, you're digging into our deepest and darkest secrets today!  Mine actually, and uncharacteristically, looks ok right now.  I've been working on it, and think I've removed all the scary stuff.  Usually, I find moldy cheese and sour cream, but those were tossed this weekend.  And I've consolidated all the hot sauce into one bottle, not including the siracha.  We have a condiment problem and I estimate our fridge is at least 40% condiments, pickles, olives and sauces.  And usually once a week, at least one of these containers gets knocked and leaks everywhere.

        Marley and I had another great 3 mile trail run this morning.

         

         

        QOTD:  Well stocked, but up to date.  Nothing ancient at the moment.

          Nice run in above-ankle snow yesterday.  Would have gone longer but feet were getting a bit cold.  Road run today and since most side roads aren't plowed too well I'll try to avoid any catastrophic impacts with the moving vehicles.

           

          QOTD:  +1 to condiment hoarding.  Think there's probably 5 or 6 types of hot sauce and Mayo - No Miracle Whip!

            Nice trail run of a little over 5 miles on the Cam-rock bike trails real early this morning. Wore spikes and it was a good choice and won't be needing a headlight too much anymore. Most of our increasing light has been being added in the evening but the mornings are getting a wee bit brighter too.

             

            QOTD-right now it looks fine as I just looked but I see a couple questionable leftovers I better decide on soon.

             

            Moonlight--sorry I'm so late but Happy Birthday!

              I am taking today off.  My snow runs over the weekend did a number on my ankles.  I need more runs like that to build some strength up again.  I need my trail legs back...

               

              QOTD: With moving this last year, we bought a new fridge and threw pretty much everything in our other one out.  So nothing really old in there.  Give it a couple years and I am sure we will have something that will be molding up (usually a condiment of some sort that hides).  But we are usually good about cleaning out our fridge.  There have been times I look in there and there is virtually nothing.

               

              Have a great day!

                6-8 easy planned for after work.

                 

                QOTD, it's clean right now, trying to stay on top of it since the first of the year with this "eating cleaner" thing. Have lost 8 pounds so far, woohoo!

                  Spending the day at work. Doubt I'll get out in time to do a run.

                   

                  QOTD:  Threw out some moldy cheese last week. Right now the fridge looks pretty good. The freezer is a different story. Things always get pushed to the bottom and forgotten. I just found some deer bologna that has to be over 10 years old.

                    Haven't ran since Friday due to the nephew visiting but we have been having a lot of fun and spending time in the woods.  He lives today so should run tomorrow.

                     

                    QOTD: Leftover taco meat and Mexican lasagna, milk, OJ, Cranberry, club soda.  There's some sad looking salad fixing in the drawer.  I usually run a pretty lean fridge.  My husband always says there is nothing in  there.  I know we are out of beer.

                      I just looked at the Hyner profile again, and decided a treadmill hill workout is necessary tonight. I've been doing them about once a week and finding them pretty effective so far. However, downhill is going to be another story, since I can only run down hills on weekends.  Any recs for quad strengtheners? Definitely going to add more squats to my repertoire.

                       

                      QOTD: not in the best condition currently. It could use a thorough cleaning.

                      Are we there, yet?

                        Opted to run indoors. The temps and wind chill are revealing the wimp in me. Got in a total of 8 miles with 4 at slightly sub-tempo pace and after a mile easy, another 2 at tempo pace, so a good quality workout.

                         

                         

                        QOTD:  The general state is not too bad. I think the bag of carrots is long overdue for disposal and the mushrooms are at the edge of edibility. I also have some salad dressing that's about 3 years old that I never get around to tossing.

                              5 miles this evening, went up the little hill.  A nice Thursday evening, lots of folks out walking.

                               

                              qotd: Just moved in to a new apt and the company bought me a nice new frige.  Plus I just got back from my long trip to The States and I'm off to London next week.  What that means is the thing is basically empty.  Here's a photo, and no that's not a box of cookies....    :-) .
