As a child, my family sat down to dinner with each other, pretty much every single night. At the table. It was like Leave it to Beaver, with lots of casseroles made with cream of mushroom soup and whining about broccoli. In all seriousness, I have some great memories of sitting down with my family […]

I was bound and determined that I was going to run the entire Run the Hood 5k next weekend. It is something that I have never done before. I have walked more 5k’s than I can count. I have walk/ran some of those, but I have never ran an entire 5k. I figured I wasn’t […]
