75% health and fitness, 25% life and 100% me!
Half of you are going to find this absolutely nuts the other half will be like “Yaaaasssss!” All I’m asking is that one side not judge the other. AKA don’t judge me. In my old hood, there was this lovely young lady runner who had the perfect swinging long blond ponytail, matching shorts and bra... 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 →
Now this one is going to be running specific so like the movies any similarity to other sports is entirely unintentional unless you found it helpful. If that’s the case I meant to do it on purpose then. Runners, even those that claim to have loved it often times find themselves lapsed. Maybe they get... Continue Reading →

This year of my own accord I somewhat admirably got into the habit (a bit) of getting up crazy early to run and it’s kind of stuck (at least sometimes). Now you don’t know me but if you did that last sentence would straight up blow your freakin’ mind. This past spring I had to... Continue Reading →
Here in North America about 50% of us are overweight and around 30% of us are obese. That ain’t good. That leads us all down some crazy roads like spending literally all of our government dollars on healthcare and human lifespans shortening for the first time ever form our lifestyle choices alone. That’s straight up... Continue Reading →
I’m kinda excited to write this one because this year I can compare what I actually did to what I said I was going to do, hint it’s more. I think it’s pretty important to plan a race season so you don’t blow your budget (fail), stay injury free (check) and actually accomplish your main... Continue Reading →
