Yesterday I was just a ball full of energy! After my walk to Target, I came home without much idea of what to do. I blogged and then decided to poke my head outside on the back porch. In an ideal world, it would be set up as our home gym and patio. In this […]
Winter Running Gear 101
“All you need are sneakers!” That’s what everyone says about running… Just throw a pair on and go! I think this is the biggest lie ever told to newbie runners. I realized this when getting ready for my wintery run the other day… I spent 20 minutes looking for my gloves and hat because it […]

This morning, I started my day off with a run! I slept terrible and the weather said possible rain with 100% humidity (I’m not exaggerating, it really did say 100), but I had an itch to go so I threw on my Blue and Yellow (in honor of the Boston Marathon) and got a slow […]
