75% health and fitness, 25% life and 100% me!
Eating healthy while out and about is not the easiest thing to do. Many chains now offer a few token ‘healthy’ options like side salads but those really aren’t meal substitutes. We eat out so often and I usually try to opt for a healthier choice, plus I’m vegetarian so the options are limited. Personally... Continue Reading →
I'm all for dancing to the beat of your own drum, doing things you love because you love them even if they are a little weird and wearing what you want even if it doesn't match. Some of the coolest people I know are probably a little nuts on some level. Some of the stuff... Continue Reading →
So we are here again… Will we be running races at all in 2021? While I think the answer is probably yes at least we all know we’ll live if we have to go one more year race free. If you’re feeling bad for yourself this year keep in mind that really bigger, more important... Continue Reading →

Merry Christmas and happy almost end to 2020 to you! I want to wish each and everyone the happiest of holidays in this undeniably not so great year. I hope that whatever you lost in 2020 you get some of it back this year coming up. Many of us myself included, mostly just missed out... Continue Reading →
The year is coming to an end and so is the budget for Christmas gifts. If you’re like most of us you might have once again left yourself off the list, but it’s not too late! There are lots of things we can give to ourselves with that limited (see no) budget that’s leftover. There... Continue Reading →
Should you train by your heart rate, your speed or by calories burned? I even start getting overwhelmed just thinking about how that all works. Honestly looking into the options and all the rules for those options is really overwhelming. Heart rate training is popular but it keeps you really tied to your tech. Checking... Continue Reading →
