The Ides of March
The sunny days that we've experienced this week means it's time. No, not time for self-tanner although it's on my shopping list. Spring time means outdoor time.

Running Commentary
When I run with friends I like to chat. Well, to be totally truthful, I like to ask questions. Short questions. They talk, I'm entertained and don't get out of breath. (I know I'll get a few choice emails from my running pals on this one). The days that I run alone I will run …

Oh, and portion sizes ultimately do count. So other than "eating from the rainbow" what does this mean? Here is one quick thing you …
Goal Setting 101
Ok, it's March, how is the "new you" coming along? Are you running, spinning, meditating, eating more leafy greens, playing with your kids more or working less like you promised on January 1st? If not, maybe your goal needs a fine tuning. Broad, sweeping goals are fine and dandy but in order to reach those …
Party of One
I preach the necessity of having people in your corner. We all need our cheerleaders, that "get us up off the couch and go for a walk" friend. While I firmly believe that having a great support system in place is important to help you succeed, the numero-uno, most important person you need as your …
