Sports bra love (giveaway post).

by

Check out my new fave sports bra for running! (and check out who finally discovered the THUMBNAIL option! ) Being of the small boobed variety it has constantly befuddled me that I struggle to find a comfortable bra in which to run. Before I decided to join the running masses I either did ZEROimpact cardio (stationary bike) where *anything* worked or I donned two sports bras for highimpact ... Continue Reading

Holiday kids-at-home workouts.

by

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? I know---but with no child in school yet its amazing how fast we forget...) Since I'm always rollin’ with my ... Continue Reading

To follow me on Twitter could be a bad call. My tweets as of late? Not motivating at all! My marathon training is plodding along. Im following my schedule Im still going strong. Enjoying the run? This me not so much. I struggle with boredom motivation and such. Ive yet to discover the love of the run. The endorphinRUSH which makes the sport *fun.* The kind of empowerment that ...

Viewer mail: pushups & tricep strength.

by

I’m having trouble doing push ups correctly.  Can you recommend any particular exercises to increase wrist and tricep strength. My biceps rock from running with weights, but because pushups are great for back and chest muscles I would like to do them more often. My husband says to just keep building up the number I can do but it’s lame not being able to do other exercises related to wrist ... Continue Reading

Breast Cancer Awareness Month.

by

Jacki Donaldson is a woman I admire and a survivor. I could think of no better person to write today's post and am honored she agreed to do so. There are several reasons I exercise. I do it to maintain my weight (and sometimes to lose weight). I do it for my mental health -- I feel so much better after drenching myself in workout sweat. I do it for my heart, too (just learned I have a ... Continue Reading

Fall Fitness.

I decided that since it’s only a day off for all of us USA’ers Id still do a post. That way, should you reside in the USA (*and*have the day off as not all of us do), you mightcould skim, snag some tips &, git to living life (not reading about living). Should you live elsewhere, however, you can glean some info and perhaps share some of your tips & thoughts (for example: screw you ... Continue Reading

I’m off and…RUNNING.

by

This one's a short post. A gift to myself. Im living not blogging. Taking care of my health. This morning? Im running. (or wogging. we'll see.) Shakin' up the workout. MAKING time for me. Im DOing not TRYing. Not saying: I may run. I'm pushing my limits some OUTSIDETHEBOX fun. Are you in a rut? Are your workouts stale? Are you on autopilot? Does routine prevail? Make it ...
