Running Update #10
I hope everyone is having a great week! Since I am running up to 14 minutes at a time now, I definitely wanted to update everyone on how I've been doing with my running training. At this point, my running workout consists of running 14 minutes, walking 6 minutes, and then running another 14 minutes. …
25!

Running Update #9 + Exploring Smoothies
I hope everyone is having a great Monday! I thought I would start out the week with another running update.

In between all of the overindulgences, I have still managed …

Running Update #4
It has been gloomy, rainy and chilly all week so far, which is not the best motivator to keep moving and get out there and accomplish fitness goals. Whenever the weather is like this, it seems like all I want to do is curl up in my warm blankets and nap the day away. Even …
