30 Day Boot-Camp Challenge Calendar
I like challenges because they propel, push and move you forward or help pull you out of a rut. So dive in. Commit. With this challenge, there's something to do every day. Some days it's a little something, some days a little more. Print the calendar, post it near your computer, by your running shoes, …
30 Day Boot-Camp Challenge – Day 1
Today we kick off a 30 Day Boot-Camp Challenge. Here are the rules. Rather here is *the* rule for this month's challenge. Set your mind to completing the challenge. Set your intention. Set your mind. Write it down. See it. Do it. Here's today's workout. Warm up for 5 minutes (take a walk, a light …
And How Does That Make You Feel?
One thing I truly enjoy doing at night is a guided meditation. I find it relaxing, soothing and a helpful way to end my day. It is suggested, in a lot of the things I read, that meditation is encouraged in the morning to start one's day. But mediation makes me sleepy so nighttime works …
How to Run
First let me state the obvious. People make running way more complicated than it needs to be. Sure, there's cadence, pace, foot placement, etc. but for a new runner it's all Greek so let's keep it simple and just focus on what to do with your body when you run. Ok. Start running. Now …

The Other Four Letter Word
Running injuries don't usually come on like a mack truck. They usually start out small. Quiet, like a whisper. You may feel a twinge, a tingle, a dull ache or stiffness. Sometimes they work themselves out or are resolved with some extra stretching or by implementing a solid warm up and cool down. A pack …
The Reach
Goals are important to me. They are tangible things I can work towards and that really suits my personality. I don't do well when I'm not pointed in a direction. Besides, I'm a validation-whore who needs to have these accomplishments in my memory bank. Or posted on Facebook. No surprise there. I've got some …
A Simple Swap
Our family loves Mexican food so Taco Tuesday happens a few times a week. But with this whole plant-based thing I've got going on I had to find an end-around to the typical ground turkey or beef or grilled chicken. Say "Hey" to my little friend the garbanzo bean. (Insert fancy music). Garbanzo beans (also called chickpeas) …
