Just for today…
Just for today... Talk to your friends about things that that empowers, uplifts you, or just makes you smile (instead of bitching about stuff). Thank your partner for mowing the lawn or picking up their socks (even though, really, how hard is it to pick up socks off the floor?) Watch the honeybadger videos on …
Channel your inner bad-ass
It's not uncommon to get into a rut with your fitness program. Whether you run, take classes, swim, walk or ride your bike there are days when we don't push quite as hard as we should or cut 10 or 15 minutes from our workout or even (gasp) skip it altogether. We're all human and …
5 Reasons To Run
Happy Friday everyone! Here's my top 5 reasons to run today. 5. You never come back from a run without at least one problem solved. 4. Sweat is nature's skin detoxify-er. 3. That surge of endorphins you get at about the 2nd mile. 2. Those training miles won't run themselves. And the number #1 …
30 Day Challenge – Part 3
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 …
I (Puffy Heart) Running!

One foot in front of the other
As I shared last week, I was getting ready for our 16 mile run in preparation for the upcoming Big Sur International Marathon. The good news is that I finished the run but it was by far, one of the worst long runs I've had in a looooong time. But like I've said before, sometimes …

Quote of the Week
Wow! What an inspiration! I spent four weeks in total numbness. Six months later, I started running. I could only do ten minutes at a time, but I kept going because I knew that running would get me my life back. - Ryon Lane, runner who shattered his C4 vertebra in a 2008 diving accident …
Why running rocks!
I started my 5 miler this morning in a stinkin' foul mood. My 6am running buddy bailed on me so I had to re-jigger my schedule so I could run when it was kind of dark instead of pitch black, my kids were the Bickerson's and I had a few frantic minutes where I thought …
