I’m here today to talk to you about a side effect of running that perplexes many runners. I’m running so why can’t I lose weight? When I first became a runner, my weight dropped quickly, but here I am several years later, with a full marathon and 9 (soon to be 10) half marathons under […]

As I type this post I am cozy and warm in my apartment as the weather outside turns into a Winter Wonderland. Wednesday morning I went for a 3 mile walk in short sleeves and capris. Later, we were at the park playing, having a craft sale and most of the kids were wearing shorts […]

After posts about my injury and what I can’t do, I am so excited to declare this Toot Your Horn Tuesday because I have something to be happy about. I am still about a week away from getting my inserts for my shoes, but things are finally beginning to get a little better with my […]

  Are you like me and asking yourself how it could be December already? I know my mom used to tell me the months and years go by faster as you get older and I never really understood what she meant by that, but now I totally understand!! This year has flown by with such […]

Over the last four years, I have run multiple 5k’s, 10k’s and half marathons.  Here are a few observations I made during my last race, a Turkey Trot 5 Miler! If your race happens to include hills, it really helps to train on hills. Sometimes you have to stop thinking so much and just run. […]

So, now that we have survived Thanksgiving, it’s time to look ahead to the next month staring straight at us. DECEMBER! Can you believe tomorrow is Dec. 1, already? The pace of life starts to really pick up right about NOW. Houses to decorate, gifts to buy, Mall Santas to visit, parties to attend, cards […]

  I realize that most of us are out shopping today for all those Black Friday deals, I know I broke my own cardinal rule and actually went shopping on Thanksgiving night! Please don’t hate me!! It was fun and I got a few good deals with a friend! but we still need to take a […]

It’s that time of year when we start to get a little nostalgic. It’s when we begin to remember the past year and all the things that came with it. It’s that time of year when we become thankful more so than other times of the year. We talked about being thankful with our preschoolers […]

See this pretty running shoe? And this one too? They are the same shoe- the New Balance v1400 Racing Flat- and I am in love with it. Period, the end.  That’s all I have to say about this shoe review- I love it. How’s that for details? Actually, when asked to review this a racing […]

Athletes and non-athletes alike need proper fuel when it comes to improving the intensity and results of their workouts. Foods that require lots of digestion weigh you down, sap your energy, and leave you feeling sluggish and fatigued. Fresh, clean foods provide your body with the essential nutrients, vitamins, and minerals needed to get fit […]

I have discovered something wonderful lately. It’s called the great outdoors. It’s become my latest workout venue and I am hooked. HOOKED!  As in as soon as I wake up in the morning,  I am thinking about when and how the great outdoors and I can meet up again. Take it outside has become my […]

If I had to choose one word to describe how I feel right now, it would have to be *overwhelmed*.  Raise your hand if that’s you.  I have too much on my plate and I am drowning.  Something needs to give or my mind just might explode.  I went back to work permanent part-time when the kids […]
