As a recap, I needed to find some motivation and inspiration this summer so I decided to do three 30 day challenges. The first challenge was to run for 30 days straight and the second challenge was to do yoga for 30 days straight. I'm batting .500 on my challenges so this is my chance …

30 Day Yoga Challenge
Wow, I'm VERY late in reporting the results for this challenge! As much as it pains me to admit - I did not quite make it through the full 30 days. In truth I managed to do about 20 days. Some days I would tell myself I'd do it later and then I would forget. …
Quote of the week

Chicken Ole!
In an effort to break out of my cooking rut I created Chicken Ole! It's a healthy Mexican-inspired, dish that cooks quickly and tastes delicious! Ingredients 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken tenders 1 jar medium salsa (if you are not a fan of spicy, use mild) 1/2 white onion, sliced 1 clove garlic, …

Maui Wowie
I ran the Maui Marathon (www.mauimarathonhawaii.com) with TNT back in 2002. It's hard to believe that it was a decade ago! It remains one of my favorite races. The views; spectacular, the Hawaiian people; so nice, the course; some hills but pretty mild. I would definitely recommend this as a destination race! I've been back …
The Yoga Challenge Continues
So we are on day 18 of my 30 Day Yoga Challenge and all is ok. While I have not noticed much improvement in the bendy department I am enjoying the poses and am finding what kind of yoga works for me. I like when the instructors give exact detailed instructions on where to move …
I (Puffy Heart) Running!
I like to run. Some days I run slow. Some days I run fast. Some days I run hills and some days I run around the block and call it a day. But there is one thing that's a given, if I start my run in a foul mood I will bet my Garmin 405 …
