Here's a little formula to get you started on the road to living a healthier lifestyle and reaching your goals. Now math has never been my strong suit (nor is counting if you take a poll of my boot-camp participants). But luckily today we're not talking about numbers! All it takes for you is to …

Project Brad
'Project Brad' is back on track. For those new to the party, I convinced my husband Brad that he would gain more bang for his fitness buck if he started to run. We began in late Fall, got a few runs under our belt then abruptly stopped when Brad injured his plantar fascia and heel during a …
Keli’s Super Fun Super Bowl Fun Run
I don't really care who's playing in the Super Bowl, but it is a great excuse to hang out with friends, have a few beers and nosh on some tasty nibbles. It's also a great excuse to start the day off with a run! And since I am going to go for a run, why …
Weathering the Weather
These rainy days have me feeling a certain kind of way. A little sluggish, a little blah, a little meh. Bleh. As we have settled into the cellar of Winter I sometimes find it more challenging to drag myself out into a dark and rainy morning to exercise. If you are also having some difficulty …
Natural Progression
A lot of runners think that the natural progression in running is a marathon. Listen, I've done 9 of them and while I am not a natural runner; neither fast, lithe or graceful, I can do the distance. And while I may be proud of my 4:29 PR back in 2007 at the NY Marathon, …

New Year Hype is Here
As the great motivational speaker Zig Ziglar once shared in a presentation; a resolution is actually a confession. Think about it. A resolution to lose weight is confessing that you are out of control of your eating. A resolution to get organized is a confession that you don't have a handle on your life; paperwork, …
Tune Out Tech
I don't know about you but I find myself a little too plugged in. My smartphone is often close by and I spend a lot of time scrolling through my FB feed or checking email when there's a lull in the checkout line, before a movie starts or even sitting on the couch with my …
Sunday Trail Runs Rock!
I'm always happy when I can run trails so our Sunday Trail Run Series continues! (Click here to see where we're running this week.) Most Sundays we'll hit the trails for runs of varying distances; between 6-8 miles. And we'll also introduce Adventure Trail Runs. The Adventure Trail Runs will be more of an exploration …
You. Improved.
I wanted to share something profound with you as we run full-steam into 2016. Unfortunately, I ran full-steam into some writer's block so all I could come up with is this. You are the driver of the bus. You hold the key to the kingdom. You run this show. And the only thing stopping you …
