  1. What does everybody look like

    No pic, but I’ll just quickly describe myself: medium height, light brown hair. Slightly broad hips (my daughter turns 5 this fall)
  2. Megan is taking after her moms

    Just like her moms, she has a go to breakfast after church. :D We go out to breakfast after UU services every Sunday. We’ve already become familiar fixtures. They know what we like. Megan’s favorite: “mini-chocolate pancakes”. :D
  3. We have new neighbors (and Megan has new playmate)

    The Peterson family recently moved into the neighborhood. The Petersons are our friends Todd & Zach, along with their son Chris. So nice to be close again!
  4. Women's barefoot marathon world record

    Funny to find this thread on just swinging by! I’ve run Boston barefoot before. Due to motherhood and Covid, not recently though
  5. What's new with everyone?

    Steph is teaching remotely and I'm trying to keep busy with Megan. People aren't soliciting much artwork at the moment.
  6. 2021

    How is everyone doing in the new year? Hopefully this year is more normal than last year.
  7. Guess Megan has weaned

    She hasn't asked to nurse for several days. I'm gratified she nursed as long as she did (she turned 3 last month), and that she weaned on HER terms.
  8. How is everyone holding up?

    Steph has been teaching remotely for a month, getting the hang of it. Can't believe my little girl is getting ready to turn 3! I'm a little disappointed in one thing though: it looks like she'll be weaning soon. I'm SO grateful she nursed as long as she did.
  9. Steph's football league had a virtual 5K fundraiser

    OF COURSE I did it barefoot. Probably the only one who did.
  10. Steph's football league had a virtual fundraiser a 5K

    This week Stephanie's football league held a virtual 5K fundraiser. OF COURSE I did it barefoot. Probably the only barefooter.
  11. Caronavirus

    Just coming to update: Suffolk going to a hybrid model for Fall Semester. Blackboard will get a workout.
  12. Stephanie recently got bad news

    The football league she plays in recently decided that their 2020 season can't go on as scheduled. She's heartbroken, because she loves playing, and loves her teammates. The bright side she's hanging on to: has ability to focus on teaching and her family life. She's fully expecting to come back...
  13. Hello from Boston North Shore!

    Sorry for the late greetings, but welcome! I'm Mandy from Sudbury. Hopefully you're enjoying your time here at BRS!
  14. Just checking in gang

    Suffolk shut down, so Stephanie is teaching remotely. No biggie, most stuff is on Blackboard anyway. I decided NOT to run for now. I keep up with weights, calisthenics and yoga. Megan LOVES having both mommies around full time. She's good about letting Stephanie get her work done. And I'm...
  15. Barefoot running and covid-19

    Yeah, I'm not running outside (or inside for that matter) during this. I have a toddler to worry about.
  16. Caronavirus

    Suffolk has decided no more on campus classes after Spring Break. Stephanie is bummed, but understands completely. It's not terrible for her because most of her material goes on Blackboard anyway.
  17. People's reactions when you run

    Suppose I should report on how suburbia reacts to a barefoot runner: They seemingly think,"She's a big hippie". (Not really, just a contrarian)
  18. Longtime no post

    So sorry I'm not around anymore gang!! My tablet acts up when I try to visit the site. AND live has become incredibly busy!! To recap the last few months: we moved from Cambridge to Sudbury. Stephanie is gearing up for her first Finals as a professor. Megan is growing SO MUCH! (I'm still...
  19. Anyone living West of Boston?

    Don't know why you thought that would be helpful
  20. Anyone living West of Boston?

    As you may have heard, Stephanie and I will soon be moving to Sudbury. Anyone live out that way? How's the running out there? On non-running notes: I'll need a space to create my art, and does anyone know if there's a LLL chapter out there?
