I learn something new about myself on a regular basis. Something that may have worked for me in the past may not work for me now. I have mentioned in the past that I have struggled on and off with anorexia a couple of times in my life. There are days when I can’t fathom [...]

Today’s MIT workout run was cancelled due to excessive heat. Temperatures are supposed to soar to 103 degrees with a heat index of 110. Being outside for any period of time can be risky, especially when exerting yourself by doing any type of physical activity such as running. If you must be outside or exercise [...] Actually, I got a brand new pair of flip flops. With summer just around the corner and my favorite sandals – Merrell’s – just over two years old, I thought it was high time to invest in some flip flops that wouldn’t have my sports medicine doctor’s hard work on my feet going down the [...]

To be honest, I had put it off because of our unseasonably warm winter. Thankfully when I ordered some Little Hotties hand warmers, I got some sample foot warmers. Did you know [...] Last fall I bought a headlamp to light the way on my predawn neighborhood runs. I did this partially so that I could avoid tripping or stepping on frogs (yes, I have encountered a few along my early summer morning runs) and also so I was easier to see. My colder weather gear – [...] I heard it through the grapevine that Chobani had several new flavors out, so I made it my mission to locate the new flavors & give them a try. Apparently the mango has been around for a short while, but it has somehow escaped my radar. I was so excited with my purchases, [...] |
