75% health and fitness, 25% life and 100% me!
We got some good news (or bad news) around here this past week and that is our tiny little community on the far edge of the city is getting sidewalks! It’s good news for many and people have been fighting hard for it for years but I’m not so pleased. For years I’ve believed and... Continue Reading →
I’ve heard about ‘muscle memory’ a lot over the years but what is it? Is is when your body just naturally knows how to do something because you’ve practiced it so much. That I kind of get but is it something else too? I’ve also heard it talked about in terms of getting back into... Continue Reading →
Running in the dead of winter could not be more different than in the heat of the summer. Almost everything about it is different from what you wear, your top safety concerns to what you feel like when you’re giving it your all. But this doesn’t just relate to exercising in the great outdoors it... Continue Reading →
This week overall getting my runs in was a little tough for a few reasons. After my long run last week my knees were pretty sore. I wonder if that’s because I did it in a new pair of sneakers, so that’s sort of freaking me out a bit.. But I knew they weren’t injury... Continue Reading →

My helper at work has learned everything there is to know at this point and she can handle my stuff with litte oversight which is great. After my long run this last weekend I had a lot...

This week just blew by. Honestly, I barely remember it as I’m going back picking out the pictures I was thinking ‘was that even this week’. This week in July is a busy week every year because not only is it my birthday it’s my little sister’s too. That fact led to us considering it... Continue Reading →
This week was one where a few things popped up to make running a little harder. We had a couple of rain days and for no good reason at all that always seems to make it a little harder to make it out the door. There was a lot of work stuff that had to... Continue Reading →
In theory you hear from me three times a week 4 if I’m currently training for something. That’s a lot really. We have a fitness related post every Wednesday and Sunday except every second Wednesday (like today) it’s about some other random thing. Fridays you get a weekend motivation post and in training season a... Continue Reading →
New Year's resolutions get a bad wrap but as long as you set specific and achievable goals then I think they can have a place in everyone's life. I’m a big believer in resolutions because I've done some pretty life-changing stuff at this time of year. 2020 should have changed your perspective on things. If... Continue Reading →
“It’s great that you’re running but you know it’s bad for your knees right?” If runners worldwide had a dollar for every time they heard that we could band together and solve world hunger! In fact I might start collecting and become the voice of the movement. But is running bad for your knees what... Continue Reading →
