Okay, so I haven't posted in a bit. You know why? Because nothing has really been going on! Paleo ended a few days after my last food post. It was a slow decline...It started with one meal gone awry, then followed by a a little cheating here and there, until I almost stopped caring for … Continue reading Running Grooves…and Bumps In The Road

Temporary Lulls Are Just That…Temporary
This post sings a bit of a different tune. It's more about the lulls in energy or drive that hit me in my daily life, be it work related, training related, or personally related. It seems more so than ever I am aware that my life really is a series of unbalanced scales. I have … Continue reading Temporary Lulls Are Just That…Temporary
Marathon Countdown: 15 Days, 60-hour Workweeks
Woah, where did February go?! There's only 15 more days until the LA Marathon. Good news is that I wrapped up my fundraising. I can't believe that I was able to reach the $1,000 fundraising requirement. Honestly, that seemed more out of reach than the actual 26.2 miles! Special thanks to the landslide of friends … Continue reading Marathon Countdown: 15 Days, 60-hour Workweeks

If you have eight minutes to spare, it might be the best thing you could ever watch for your health. It's something that seems pretty obvious, but coming … Continue reading The 23.5 Hour Challenge
Tis The Season For Personal Pivots
Every once in awhile I find myself back at where I started...albeit I'm usually in a better position, but still, nonetheless, back at where I started. As some of you may know, when I began my running back in February, I was running my own design and marketing business. Since then I've had a few … Continue reading Tis The Season For Personal Pivots
Don’t Have Time? Make It.
Time is surreal. It's a manmade concoction with which we rule our lives. Some people say time is money, time is life, life is money. Some people never have enough time to finish a project, pursue their dreams, or spend with their loved ones. I say that if you don't have enough time in your … Continue reading Don’t Have Time? Make It.
Due Diligence and Making an Action Plan
So, we've covered 1) how to set goals, and 2) how to make goals achievable. We've also talked a little bit about being consistent. But, what good is all of that if you haven't done your homework? Due diligence is crucial! Careful planning is required for every action plan. Having a wishful to-do list does you … Continue reading Due Diligence and Making an Action Plan
