(Doing what I can when I can. It's not a fad--it's my life.) The question I'm most frequently asked is whether I really practice what I preach on my blog. Emails. Tweets. Comments. Facebook messages. It seems the collective you wonder if my philosophy is something to which I actually adhere. move. daily. something. #wycwyc. day in & out. year in & out. until death. It ... Continue Reading
Street Strider Summit 8r: final thoughts.
DiZclosure: The Street Strider was sent to me for review. The fact I ADORE it and have harnessed its magical powers to make friends in my new 'hood are both my own.

As a result, Ive chosen to morph the bulk of my fitness into fun. I've decided ... Continue Reading
