Headed to the Chicago Triathlon
This morning, I went out for a fast 5-mile run, which was fantastic! It’s been really cool the last few mornings – around 60 degrees with no humidity. Yeah, Fall is coming! About halfway through my run, I noticed one of those speed monitors sitting in the road up ahead. This isn’t the first time [...]
What Inspires You To Run?
It’s hard NOT to be inspired or motivated to run when you have a view like this every morning. I’m very fortunate indeed. What inspires or motivates you to keep running, day after day?
Have Runner's Knee? Move Your Hips!
(Photo Source) Most runners will experience knee pain at some point. Whether it’s new shoes, too much pounding the pavement, or a pronating stride, knee pain is a little bother that sneaks up on runners and can turn into a big problem over time. But I have good news to share! A new study presented [...]
Gotta Get To The Sea
Last night, Scott and I went with another couple to see Jack Johnson. The concert was awesome - yeah, like you couldn’t tell from my Tweets! He played at least 25 songs including an surprising rendition of Steve Miller’s The Joker – very cool! He also played several songs from his new CD – To [...]
No, That's Not a Wild Animal On My Head
(Photo Source) This morning I woke up extra early for my run to find it sprinkling outside. After about 30 minutes, it seemed to be clearing up so I laced up and headed outside. About 3 minutes into my run, it started to downpour. And in those 5 minutes (3 minutes out and 2 minutes [...]
Eat, Drink, And Run
A woman at my office is a marathon runner and a triathlete. She often talks about the energy bars and gels she eats during her workouts and her races. This got me thinking about my eating habits while running. I’m torn on this issue. As a personal trainer, it is part of my job to [...]
Should You Run or Walk?
(Photo source) Yesterday, I woke up early for my normal Tuesday run. Blah – it was raining! And it wasn’t even that light, sprinkly rain, it was a hard, steady rain. I usually don’t have a problem with running in very light rain, especially if it’s warm outside. But a hard rain leaves me feeling [...]
Keeping Your Motivation to Run
After yesterday’s fast 7-miler, I decided to slow it down today with an easy 4-mile run. Post-run breakfast was a bit of Kashi Go Lean and a full cup of a blackberry/blueberry mix – fantastic! Scott is teaching class this week which means our schedule is totally crazy. In order to run before he leaves [...]
A Weekend of Y & R
Hey everyone! Hope you all had a great weekend. While many people use their weekends to grab a little R&R (rest and relaxation), my weekends seem to be filled with Y&R: Y = YOGA R= RUNNING Saturday morning, I made it to yoga 30 minutes before start time to find that there were still spots [...]
