Day 0: In The Books | Knit & Run!
https://carlakempert.wordpress.com/2014/11/23/day-0-in-the-books
She knits, she runs, she shares…maybe a little too much. Day 0: In The Books. November 23, 2014. December 6, 2014. I did it. I’m hurting pretty bad; my knees hate me and no doubt my heel will not let me walk tomorrow, but I did it and I have the medal to prove it. I also have the video to prove it. I stayed pretty calm since then until I realized my parents will get to see me finish my first marathon. Then I lost it completely. She really did it! Posted in Marathon Training. Day 1: Go The Distance. One t...

Thinking, Planning: January 2008
http://april-line.blogspot.com/2008_01_01_archive.html
This chick is writing. Thursday, January 31, 2008. My Boss has Karaoke in her office. My boss is really fun. She's full of creative ideas and always has chocolate kicking around her office. There is unflattering speculation regarding her level of productivity. But I have few doubts. But this Karaoke machine in her office- sober karaoke is therapeutic. Possibly cathartic. It was exhilarating like driving too fast crooning loudly to Green Day. The non-present-just-a-wall-away audience empowered my noise...

Excerpt: Comfort Zone | Knit & Run!
https://carlakempert.wordpress.com/excerpt-gabriels-angel
She knits, she runs, she shares…maybe a little too much. Was a New Jersey Romance Writers’ Put Your Heart in a Book contest finalist in the Single Title Contemporary category! I’m delighted to say I tied with my bestest yarn buddy and roommate, Laura Graham Booth! Liz Hale sipped her café au lait and thought, Here it comes. Sweetie, it’s time for you to make a change. Change is good, right? Good I’m going to help you. The first step is getting you a new job. Oh good, here he is. Sherry jumped out of ...

She knits, she runs, she shares…maybe a little too much. Excerpt: Goodbye to Love. It doesn’t get much more raw than this. Here’s the first pages of my current WIP.

Day +1: It’s For Real | Knit & Run!
https://carlakempert.wordpress.com/2014/11/24/day-1-its-for-real
She knits, she runs, she shares…maybe a little too much. Day 1: It’s For Real. November 24, 2014. I keep looking at this and thinking, “Wow, it’s real.”. Http:/ live.xacte.com/templates/philadelphiamarathon.com/for-runners/race-results. I finished with 200 people behind me and 10,100 people ahead, but I finished. The last runner in came in after more than 9 hours. That. Is the definition of endurance. Day 0: In The Books. Day 8: More than a Number. Leave a Reply Cancel reply. Enter your comment here.

carlakempert | Knit & Run!
https://carlakempert.wordpress.com/author/carlakempert
She knits, she runs, she shares…maybe a little too much. Day 8: More than a Number. December 1, 2014. December 1, 2014. So this came in the mail today. It looks like three digits and a decimal point, right? No, it’s more than that. It’s the miles I did for training. (574 including race day). It’s the sum of the mornings I got up pre-dawn for a long run. It’s the runs I did after work, trying to fit in the training miles when time was a commodity I didn’t have. NYC Marathon, you got next. November 24, 2014.

10 days: Grateful Dead | Knit & Run!
https://carlakempert.wordpress.com/2014/11/13/10-days-grateful-dead
She knits, she runs, she shares…maybe a little too much. 10 days: Grateful Dead. November 13, 2014. I titled this post Grateful Dead because I keep thinking about what a long strange trip it’s been. Can’t believe the big day is in 10 days. I try not to say “marathon” too much because a) it scares me down to my soul, and b) I don’t want to overuse the word. Chances are good I’ll have lots of time to do that AFTER it’s over. Day 56: A New Wrinkle. Day 5: Coming Together. November 14, 2014 at 10:22 am.

Excerpt: Release Point | Knit & Run!
https://carlakempert.wordpress.com/release-point
She knits, she runs, she shares…maybe a little too much. Grace Monroe laid her cork-covered tray on the Home Run sports bar, where she offloaded two empty glasses, three beer bottles, and a pair of horn-rimmed eyeglasses. The bartender looked at the eyeglasses, then at Grace. Another one for the lost and found, Charlie. Charlie tossed the glasses into a box beneath the bar and shook his head. Grace just smiled and turned her attention to the widescreen TV over the bar. No, he used Grace for that instead.
