Many thanks to Heather for responding to my pleas for a post on foam rollers. This might sound over-the-top, but the foam roller is probably the single most influential piece of exercise equipment I have used so far (though my Vibram Five Fingers are challenging that position). Essentially, the foam roller is a personal massage agent. If you use it well, it incurs that āOuch!Ā That hurts!Ā ... Continue Reading

Yes, People, we are back and we have the Amazing Julia joining us as well. We're talking running. We're talking tubers. We're making announcements. We're sharing some blogger news we've stolen from your blogs. We're ignoring the fact my phone is ringing in the background. Please to click on the image below to listen to this (and all other previous) episode(s). ... Continue Reading
Happy birthday to me.
Me at four. Sadly the only hair-difference is I grew out the bangs. Today I am 41 (**cue confetti shaped like absolutely anything as Im just happy to be here!**). In honor of that** the AMAZETASTIC Smooth Fitness sent me a treadmill. A treadmill which will be pivotal as I train for the Las Vegas Rockn'Roll half marathon. Truly. To know me at all, to have read this blog even a few ... Continue Reading
Want a Smooth Fitness treadmill?
Obviously this staid looking tattoo-free man is neither me nor Ren Man. Smooth Fitness is longing to giveaway the treadmill pictured above & Leah over at Bookieboo has been selected to play generous benefactor by proxy (is that even a thing? lets pretend that the phrase makes utter and total sense. thx). How do you enter to win? Is there a chance of the tread pictured above ending up in ... Continue Reading
VFFs my new BFFs? (almostwordless Wednesday)
I love my Five Fingers. Ive worn em as dress shoes. Ive worn em to frolic in the grass. Ive worn em to lift. Ive worn em to amble slowly on the treadmill. Ive worn em to stretch in. Ive worn em to hang with the little people. Ive worm em out for coffee with friends. Ive worn em to various & sundry other appointments. Ive worn ... Continue Reading
Barefoot running.
Sure, you can choose to deem this a re-run. I prefer to view it as foreshadowing for tomorrow's post. Tomato. Tomaaaaato. Weāve previously established there are innumerable things Iāll attempt in the name of coming up with a freakin blog post journalism. I've NIA'd I've awkwardly swung a kettlebell. Ive competed in bodybuilding. This time, however, Iām letting you ... Continue Reading
Running: getting started.
Ive been a longtime lurker on Heather's blog. For some reason I never felt right commenting because I wasnt a runner. I dont know what defined a runner in my mind---but I wasnt it & wasnt sure I had anything to add to the commentversation (tip: dont be me). Thankfully Heather didnt hold that against me & was willing to provide the newbie runner tips below. They ... Continue Reading
Shabby Apple (aka Miz & her workout skirt addiction).
Ive made no secret of the fact that I adore the exercise skirt/dress notion. Inexplicably I LOVE being clad in uberfeminine attire whilst working out when I own only a few of these garments designed for non-exercise activities. (truly. Ren Man & I have a deal.Ā I'll pretty much get gussied up and accompany him ANYWHERE--he just needs to provide the necessary attire. He's my personal ... Continue Reading
Companies MizFit loves: Oiselle Running.
This is the second in a series of posts about companies with whom Im entirely smitten. If by series you mean I shall post em when the spirit and customer service moves meāwhich I do. The woman who made me Oprah for A Day & I finally meet in person. This post is one which is truly close to my heart. Ive been blogging at MizFit for almost three and a half years and these days it's ... Continue Reading
It’s VEGAS, Baby! (video)
As I mentioned so subtly here Ive decided to run another half-marathon. This proclamation was made much to the shock of Ren Man and, quite frankly, to myself as well. The thing is I wanna give this whole race experience another try. The Disney Princess half marathon was my first race ever and, on top of that, I received the invitation with only about five weeks to train. (There was no ... Continue Reading
