A MizFit mini-course & Jackie Warner’s tips for the New Year.

I mean I adore Miz and to share my experience running across that finish line is a pretty huge accomplishment for me.

Holiday kids-at-home workouts.

I was surprised last weekend when I received a bunch of emails begging lovingly inquiring about tips for getting in the workouts with kids underfoot. For some reason I'd erroneously assumed schools were out on Christmas eve, Christmas day & resumed Monday the 28th. (Naive much?

Let's face it: when your feet aren't happy, you are miserable. After suffering from plantar fasciitis (finally learned to ... Continue Reading
