I love getting new workout clothing and fitness items. I love it even more when I get a discount. Enter The Clymb. I first heard of the site when digging through my Fitbloggin swag in 2010. I actually just set the information aside, until one day when Christy mentioned it to me and I finally logged … [Read more…]

On our ‘out-to-eat’ nights, I give my kids the choice to pick we’re going, and 9 times out of 10 they choose SUBWAY! It makes me happy to know that my kids look at SUBWAY as a treat, as somewhere FUN to go out to dinner! What also makes me happy is SUBWAY is now offering a brand new Yogurt Parfait – … [Read more…]

I came across my first Bondi Band last summer at the expo for the San Diego Rock ‘n’ Roll 1/2 marathon I was participating in, and my running ‘do was forever-changed. There were literally hundreds of stretchy bands to choose from with so many different slogans and colors. I appropriately chose a … [Read more…]

Good morning, Couch-to-5K’ers! How’s it going? Did you survive Week 1? Or maybe you are just finding us and getting ready to lace up your shoes for the first time? Week 1 went excellent for me. I was surprised, really. Yesterday, I set out on my Week 2, Day 1 workout. The runs increase to … [Read more…]

The foundation of our s’mores is New Morning Organic Honey Grahams, a product brought to us by Attune Foods. New Morning Graham Crackers were the first organic … [Read more…]

Is it just me or is there an awful lot of whining going on over at Twitter? Day after day after day. It got so bad one day, I actually thought about deleting my Twitter account. Of course, I thought about the Tworkout and decided against that idea. I laid low for a couple of days and then … [Read more…]

You have probably heard that we are putting on a race in October– Run the ‘Hood Virtual 5K/10K & Kids’ Run. It’s for anyone, really, walkers/runners/woggers… any age, any ability.

httpv://youtu.be/JKJo67TMmec This past Sunday, I completed my third half-marathon. I am not a runner, nor do I really care if I ever am. Some may say it’s their legs that get them through long races, I say it’s my heart. I didn’t quite train as much as I had intended, funny how life gets in … [Read more…]

Summer is upon us {finally} and you are probably looking to update your iPod with some fresh music. Many of us are knee-deep training for races, and others are just starting out.

“National Running Day, held annually on the first Wednesday in June, is a day when runners everywhere declare their passion for running. Wherever we are and whomever we’re with, we run—fast or slow, alone or with others, all over town or just around the block. It is a coast-to-coast celebration of a … [Read more…]

You may or may not know this about me: but I race wearing tutus. Not in triathlons because that would take too long in transition but in road races where there are no costume changes along the way. Yes I love tutus and knee highs and everything that will allow me to have a grand old time … [Read more…]

Today we’re bringing you a guest post from one of our favorite Sisters, Bari. If you haven’t had a chance to get to know her (which is highly unlikely if you’ve been around here for any length of time), please be sure to check out Bari’s blog – Live. Laugh. Run. Breathe. It’s taken me a long time … [Read more…]

I haven’t participated in True Confessions in the past two months because the confessions are too many and I am embarrassed. I haven’t participated whole-heartedly in this challenge because my heart just hasn’t been *in it*. I haven’t watched what I ate I watched it while I ate it, lol. I … [Read more…]
