After injuring my lower back by deadlifting a large box of decorations (tip - bend your knees), I began my running streak aiming to run 1 mile daily from December 3-31. As I've learned from previous December streaks, I don't always have time during my regular workouts to get that mile in, so I will …

The November Challenge: Movement
Yesterday we completed the Nutrition Challenge (and we'll unpack that challenge later this week), but today we kick off our November Challenge, where we'll tackle movement. It's the simplest of all challenges; your goal is to do some intentional movement/activity for 30 minutes daily. Take a 30- minute strength class, walk, do three 10-minute walks, …
LIVE Workouts on Zoom!
In March 2020, like most fitness professionals, I moved my in-person boot-camp classes online and taught via Zoom. There was a *steep* learning curve to be sure; lighting, camera angles, and formatting a class that can be done in a space the size of a yoga mat and of course figuring out the sound. Oh …

My 30-Day Running Streak
I'm 10 days into a 30-day running challenge. The purpose was to jump-start me back into my running after being sick for almost 6 weeks. Now let's be *very* clear. My "bar" on this is not very high. The rule of my challenge is to run at least 1 mile every day, no matter what. …

Breathing Easy and Back To It
View from the Sun Trail - photo by K. Honsberger I'll spare you the details but suffice it to say, it's been a crappy 4 weeks of just not feeling good. And the cough. Oh my, the cough. I finally went to the doctor and was diagnosed with whooping cough. It took 5 days of …
A New Challenge is Coming!
Normally I throw down fitness challenges but this time around I'm going a different route. If 2020 and 2021 have shown us anything, it's that our mental and emotional health is as important as how long we can hold a plank or how many Burpees we can do in a minute. So this year it's …
10 Things I Love About My Peloton
I've had my Peloton since August 11th. Well, now it's "the family's Peloton" - we all have accounts and when I come home from teaching boot-camp there's usually a Honsberger family member's tuchus parked on it. Since I posted about my love affair with my Peloton a lot of people have asked me about it. …
How to Move the Needle
I work very hard to provide interesting content that will appeal to my readers; information, tips, strategies and a perspective that comes from a real live person, who, like you, has to juggle a schedule to go for a run, or who shoves a (non-vegan) donut in her pie hole when stressed. I succeed. I …
