I Was Wrong About Relays and Running Shoes
It takes a very big person to admit when they're wrong, doesn't it? It probably won't happen again so I hope you all really appreciate this post! Since I returned from a whirlwind tour of New Balance and New Hampshire, I've been thinking a lot about all my experiences...
The Rundown – Sick Week
Don't worry, you can't get anything by reading this blog post - except maybe happy and motivated! It's been a little rough around here this past week, with one of the boys and me getting sick. Now, how the hell did the other twin manage to stay healthy, but I got...
Biggest Writing Announcement Ever! I’m in a BOOK!
Sorry, but I just cannot contain my excitement, now that I can finally let all 300 people who read my blog the world know that something I wrote will actually be in a book. Damn, I impress myself. One would think that this book is about fitness, running, or pertaining...
Help With Hating on Parents
No one wants to be "that" parent, right? I was recently in hell the boys gymnastics center for their first class of the year. It was hot, crowded and filled with kids and parents. It's in this type of environment where you get to see a range of kids behaviors, and...
The Rundown – In Pictures
That's right, I'm taking the easy way out this week and bringing The Rundown to you in pictures. Why? Oh let me see, it could be because I was in a van with six other women, running 200 miles from Canon Mountain, NH to Hampton Beach, NH from 4:30am Friday until 5:30pm...

Some Doctors Make It Hard To Be Healthy
I think everyone would agree that I’m a very healthy person. Not just with fitness and physical exercise, but with overall health. My mom died in 1997, after a five-year battle with ovarian cancer, so I’ve been having my ovaries checked ever since. Yeah, that long. I...
The Rundown – Rolling Hills
I often choose to do "rolling hills" when teaching spin class. We play around with the tension, and are either climbing or speeding. I like the change up, my muscles like it too, and it gives my mind something to think about other then the burning sensation in my legs...
The Bad Race
To say my 20K race in New Haven on Labor Day this past week was bad, is a massive understatement. It was the worst I’ve ever felt in a race. Ever. This is saying a lot since my first ever marathon was run in pouring, driving rain. I also had the bad luck of running...
FlipBelt Made Me a Better Mom
What is "FlipBelt" and how did such a thing happen? Well, I'm glad you asked and I will be happy to tell you. Like many other kids across the country, mine started their first day of Kindergarten last week. It was rough on me. From what I can tell, there are two mommy...
