Totally Random
I first saw the movie "Jaws" when I was around 10. (I know that dates me but what the heck!) After watching that movie and having the Garanimals scared off me I developed a completely irrational fear of swimming in lakes, the ocean and even my Nani's pool at night. I didn't let that stop …
New York-My Kind Of Town
The ING NY City Marathon was held yesterday. I did heartbreak hill with some friends and realized as we started to climb around the water tower that 1 year ago at almost that same time I was getting ready to run my race. I'm very fond of that race, I've done it twice since 2006 …
Domestic Violence Awareness Month
October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month. Domestic violence happens in all socio-economic levels. As Oprah likes to say, you never know what's going on behind other people's doors. In Marin, according to Marin Abused Women's Services (MAWS), 30% of all emergency room patients are victims of domestic violence. That's a high and a highly unacceptable …
Tips from The Biggest Loser
I love TV. But I LOVE Reality TV. My favorite Reality show right now is The Biggest Loser. Each week I tune in (or TiVo it) and watch it uninterrupted for the full 2 hours. Skipping through commercials takes it down to about an hour 45 minutes. While I can't say I know what it …
Short on Inspiration
When injured or sick, I quickly develop a "woe is me" attitude. Poor little me, can't go for a run, can't do a hike or do much else except Boot Camp and even then I'm limited. Boo Hoo, cry me a river. See I told you I was cranky. After a week of this I'm …
Winter Layers
Shorter days, longer nights, a thicker winter coat. And I don't mean the one you buy on sale at Kohl's! The winter layer I am referring to is that extra layer of you that can easily accumulate when Fall turns to Winter. You can keep that winter layer at bay by doing a few simple …
Pain in the Neck
Here's a tip for the day. Don't ever get a pinched nerve in your neck. It hurts more than you think anything can hurt. After 3 days spent alternating between the couch, the floor (because the heating pad won't reach if I'm on the couch) and the bed I've come to a realization. I don't …
Birthday Wishes for Alexa!
Today is my daughter Alexa's 10th birthday. She is a joyful, quirky, entertaining and beautiful girl with a talent for sarcasm and a penchant for brutally honest observations. She believes she can do anything, go anywhere, be anything and is not bound with old-fashioned boundaries or that thing we call the "glass-ceiling" . She will …
Healthy Tip for Tasty Veggies
General health guidelines indicate that one should eat between 5-9 servings of fresh fruits and veggies each day. With each serving being roughly equivalent to a half cup, it's really not that much produce to manage on a daily basis. A banana with breakfast, spinach in your eggs or slices of tomato on your bagel …
