I love this because it's so true. Let's break it down. Change is hard. It's challenging to change what you know, what you've always done. To change how you operate in the world. To flip the script on what others expect of you. It's not only hard but uncomfortable. For …

Lace up for Races
I ran in The Giant Race yesterday in San Francisco. My 10K time, while not great (in my opinion) landed me 17th out of 274 runners in my age group; F 50-54. I have about 2 weeks of consistent, but light, training under my belt since coming back from vacation so I didn't expect quick …
It’s Coming
Many of us have had a busy and full summer. Mine sure was and it was a lot of fun. But school's back this week and it's time to, you know, get back to business. Wouldn't it be great if we had a 30 day challenge? Well, lucky ducky you because we're kicking one off …

B-Ack! to Training
School starts in two weeks which brings up mixed emotions. I LOVE summer but I also LOVE structure and summer with the kids home blows that up. They're old enough to be free range; one works, one burns his eyes out on his Xbox and I can get to the office when I need …
Just Jump
This is my son Jack. He's 11. The photo on the left is of him contemplating taking a jump off a rock outcropping and the one on the right is after he's launched himself off into the crystal clear water below. I did this jump a few times and …
How to Keep the Vacation Vibe
The problem with going on vacation is that the minute you step on the plane bound for home, you lose your buzz. You're forced, at 500 mph, into your personal laundry list of tasks and to-do's that await you. Bummer. So is there a way, while navigating the necessities of your day to day reality, …
