I think better during my runs. Often I'll save difficult decisions or problem solving specifically for my morning runs. Once I get about 10 minutes in I will work back around to the problem or situation and let the ideas flow. Sometimes it's figuring out how to approach a sticky situation such as dealing with …

How To Get An Extra 15 Minutes Each Day
I am an early bird. I like to get up early (some say obscenely early) so I can have an hour of quiet time. I drink coffee, watch trashy reality tv, check emails and get some paperwork out of the way before I teach class at 5:30am or go for my run. While getting up …
A very heavy heart
My morning run did not make a dent in the sadness I feel in my heart. I'm sad for those who were killed in the explosion and the loved ones they leave behind. I'm sad for those who were injured. I'm sad for those who tended the injured. I'm sad for the runners. Now go …

On this lovely Easter morning I needed to go on a run. I spent all of Saturday at a volleyball tournament - and when I say all day, I mean it. We left the house at 6:30am and did not get home until just before 8pm. What normally happens at these tournaments is the girls …
Feeling like a million bucks!
Exercising is a top priority to me and the reason that it's numero uno on my list is that I love how it makes me feel. Do I always love it at that very moment? Ok - bad example because I can honestly say that sweating and working out hard is truly joyful to me. …
Quote of the Week!
