Here Comes the Sun

Welcome to Day 10 of the 30 Day Boot-Camp Challenge.  Good job! Yesterday I ran a 9.6 mile night trail race so I'm looking forward to today's workout; Sun Salutation. It's a great practice to start your day but it can also be used as a way to wind down in the evening.  You can perform …

Date Balls

This is a quick and tasty sweet treat that you can feel good about eating and giving your kids.  My friend Stephanie made a similar recipe for our Ragnar race.  They were the bomb. The recipe says to roll them into large marble or golf ball sized but I prefer them a bit smaller.  (Ha …

How to Succeed at Change

          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 …
