My 4 step approach to becoming a morning exerciser.

by

(This is the time I grab my coffee. It's also *after* my morning meditation. Im a lark.) I haven't always been a morning person (AKA slept like a toddler), but Ive certainly never been a night owl. I pulled no all-nighters in college (be it for studying or in other more liquid hedonistic pursuits) & always knew I'd be better off finishing whatever needed to be "finished" (see above ...

Before you workouteatcleanROCKyourSunday check your spam!

Ive emailed 7 of you (six winners plus one because I'm feeling so GRATEFUL this morning. And happy. And excited.) for your address to mail the above pictured treat. Sans, Star of David carrying case of course : - ) .** I stole borrowed that from the child for the photo.   **I read in Fast Company mag. that people who do this : - ) are typically a decade older than those who do ...

No resolution. No cry.

by

I've chatted ad nauseum about how I dont do New Year's resolutions. They frazzle me (I dont thrive on self-imposed life pressure). They cause me to rebel (Im a grownup that way. It's the same reason why, when Ren Man a trainer shouts EIGHT MORE REPS! I quit after 3...). They, in my experience, set me up for failure. I instead choose to think we're gifted with the chance to make new and ... Continue Reading

I’m the 82%.

by

(statistic from In Style magazine) This time last year I wrote a post where I posed the question (to you and to me): if we could flash foward to 1.1.12 what would your BIGGEST healthy living accomplishment from the past year have been? Many of you played along at home chimed in with lofty & creative health living goals you were confident you'd achieve in the next 365 days. I chimed in ... Continue Reading

The personal post: call & response.

by

(...because what's more personal than a pic of me wearing an adult onesie?)   The past few holidayweeks Ive received more emails asking about my personal life...my day-to-day...than about my workout routine. (tis the season? it seems people ask more questions about how I hangout during the holidays than how I stay healthy.  come January, however, it's an entirely different ... Continue Reading

I need your .02 (and your words. I know youve gots words…)

by

(you may need to CLICK to enlarge) We chatted about this over on Facebook and in case we arent connected there I wanted to seek your input here, too. Im moving forward with the running skirts (again. I know. it was a financial thing last time. you'll have that.) and am considering the fabric above. The skirts are cut like the picture below (compression shorts under a 'wrap' running skirt. ...

Happy Hanukkah!

by

(What all little Jewish boys & girls hope is found beneath the Hanukkah bush)   Tonight is the first night of Hanukkah. (Which means we've been singing this song for over a month already. And dancing to it.  This time of year it trumps even the Bieber in our domicile!) I've talked before about how we celebrate the holiday and SO much more than anything Im thankful this year will ...

My Misfit NYC (part 2)*

by

(Im clinging to the belief there's no other way to blog from the Wordpress Android app. If there is *I* can't figure it out) It is BigPicBigPic WordsWordsWords again--but it was such a fun experience and I wanna share. Friday I woke & immediately made me some hotelroom coffee. I *love* me some hotelroom coffee. I set it up the night before (nerd alert) and crawl over & press ON ... Continue Reading

The big picture (s).

by

I'm quite confident someone with more tech skills than I (yep that's a shoutout to you Ryan!) could figure out how not to have ginormous photos & how to intersperse text between pics. Alas I've not yet mastered the wordpress Android app. so it's bigpicbigpic wordwordword. You'll have that. Onward. I was MizFitUpAtCrack for the flight yesterday. It was early even for me. I was tired. I was ... Continue Reading
