Personal:

Like the founder of this blog, my name is Sasha. I live in Utah most of the time, but sometimes I live in other places. My partner in life and running is a year-old blue heeler (ACD).

I most prefer to run in the forest, but anywhere is fine. I don't usually train for anything in particular. I just like to run.

It's been raining a lot and I have to work long hours, so I worked out on the elliptical for a while. The temptation to hate on elliptical machines is great, but I feel compelled to mention that if it weren't for an elliptical, I may not have started running again in the winter of 2008. But that is a long story, and it was a long time ago.

Shorter time today due to scheduling and not sure how much to work out. It is supposed to rain all day tomorrow, not sure what I am going to do about that.

i hate on ellipticals a lot, but they have saved me a number of times when i couldn't run...

sorry about the rain and the long hours, but good job getting a workout in today.

Your writing has a distinctive tone (voice). I've been trying to think who it reminds me of... At first I thought the girl from the film Juno but then I thought no. Maybe the woman in the film Fargo - you're probably too young to remember that movie. The voice escapes me for now, but it's engaging in a laconic sort of way. Most of all it's distinctive. Does the little voice in your head that talks to you when you're out running, sound like your writing voice?

thanks allie! it's always worth it but sometimes it's just nice to have a place to complain, once and get it out.

I saw Fargo despite my age, and it FREAKED ME OUT. I've also seen Juno, and probably was somewhat inspired by it. I also have been writing since I was about eight, and yes, I narrate my entire life in my head, and occasionally aloud, including while running. I have even written about running while writing in my head. It's so meta it hurts.

props to you on hitting the elliptical; you're better than me. if it's down to either the elliptical or no run, i'll probably just skip the run (or seemingly do my best to catch pneumonia in the cold rain...)

solid training, though
