75% health and fitness, 25% life and 100% me!
Spring training season is just around the corner and side note I don't exactly have a clear plan yet. Yes that's stressing me out a bit but I'll figure it out soon. This is the perfect time of year to sit down make a list or write a letter to yourself about why you want... Continue Reading →
I'm lucky to live on the ocean both when I was little and now. For a few years when I didn't I went to visit it often. It was only a 15 minute drive outside the little town I went to university. Driving by the coast was the perfect way to clear my head. If... Continue Reading →
