I debated about a millisecond before getting into my workout clothes and heading down to the beach. Instead of my normal New …
Happy New Year!
As we count our way down to 2012 and before the resolutions and have to's take control, let's take a moment to reflect what you achieved in 2011 and let that momentum propel you into the new year. Did you run a race? Lose a few pounds? Organize your closet? Did you try to eat …
