A Swim, Bike, Run Weekend
My husband Scott did the Olympic distance Chicago Triathlon this morning. But before I get to that, let me rewind a bit. We headed downtown early yesterday to check into the hotel and check out the Tri-expo. I headed straight to the Larabar booth to pick up a bunch of swag… I love these bars [...]
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 [...]
Life-Long Marathon
(Photo source) Today, I woke up intending to walk instead of run. I’ve been toying with the idea of only running 4 days a week, walking 1 day, and then doing yoga on the 6th day. Why the change? Oh, many reasons. I’m starting to feel the impact that running has had on my body [...]
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?
Get Out of Shape in Just Three Weeks
Have you ever taken a vacation from running or working out? For the most part, I have not. Aside from a three-week hiatus from running due to surgery, I have not taken more than 3 days off in a row. Some people see this as dedication while others just think I’m crazy or borderline obsessed. [...]

It’s essentially a HUGE taste festival of the many restaurants in the Chicago area. Seeing as I’m from Chicago, I [...]

A Visit From The UPS Man…
Only one more day of work until the Healthy Living Summit! Yeah! I took the afternoon off from work to run some errands and to get some last minute sun by the pool – he he! It was so relaxing laying by the pool and following everyone’s HLS comments on Twitter – HLS bloggers are [...]
Healthy Living Summit Goodies!
Morning everyone! I just came back from my awesome 5.5 mile run! We’ve finally had a reprieve from the heat so it’s been much cooler in the mornings, which makes for much easier running. This cooler weather reminds me that summer is quickly coming to an end, sniff…But that also means that Autumn will be [...]
Time For My Beauty Sleep
(photo source) Hey all, It’s been a rough day! I’ve been going on 3 hours of sleep due to Ms. M falling out of bed, then waking up every 45-minutes after that. I did end up running despite my lack of shuteye. However, I gave myself a break and only ran about 4.5 miles. This [...]
