75% health and fitness, 25% life and 100% me!
For at least a year now, maybe longer it’s been bugging me - getwifed that is. That’s the name I grabbed when I thought about starting a blog way, way back in 2015. At the time I was newly engaged and super excited about it (still am) and the term ‘getwifed’ was having a moment... Continue Reading →
Good running form, have three more complex words ever been uttered? The thing is when you go out to look for tips you get the same four over and over. That’s not what this is. What this is instead is hands on approaches to evaluating your form and steps you can take to make it... Continue Reading →
I lived in this community that I run in now for most of my life and I always knew it was beautiful. I mean why else would the tourists come every summer? It does wind around the ocean and is full of rocky shores, beaches and darling coves full of boats and wharfs. But I... Continue Reading →

Now I know septic system posts are a niche audience but maybe you don’t have a septic but still harbor an intense need to... Continue Reading →
We’ve all heard it and I’m sure some of us believe it whole heartedly but do you really lose fitness soon after stopping exercise? How fast does it happen? A day, a week, a month or longer. I’m writing this part before digging into the literature so It’s probably a good time to talk about... Continue Reading →
I took this picture of some passing kayakers last summer (obviously) on a boat trip. I picked out this picture this particular week because I know a lot of people are out there this week starting on new journeys to improve themselves. I wanted you to all know you're not alone, it is hard and... Continue Reading →
Sometimes you have to think outside the box. These are the strange things I do to keep motivated.
