My Trek DS (Dual-Sport) 8.3 has served me well over the last couple of years. It’s quick enough for road riding but stable enough for light trail riding. Though not a mountain bike or a road bike, it’s versatility has proven useful as a great “take one bike” ride. I could go on, but this …
Hill repeats, and a little nostalgia for a #throwbackthursday. Yes, leave it to a runner, to get nostalgic over hill repeats. LOL! Ok, so maybe it wasn’t the workout itself… Sandy and I had 10 x 100m hill repeats on our schedule for today, so we decided to run the short hill behind our house …
A little bit earlier this week – yay! As with last week, I’ll start with a recap of what we ate last week and how our meal plan turned out. What We Ate Last Week We started off Monday with a meatless meal of eggplant parmesan baked on a sheet pan. This slightly different take …
I had hoped to get this post up a little earlier this week, but we were gone all weekend and I really didn’t put together a plan until Monday. I promise, I’ll try to get the information out earlier next week – it’s already in the planning stages. Here’s a quick recap of what happened …
I suppose the first thing I should say is that I love the idea of meal prepping. I don’t mind putting in the work to prepare meals in advance. And having a fridge full of healthy meals ready to go sounds wonderful! But… I don’t like eating the same thing over and over. And I …
Without much fanfare, Sandy and I have jumped back into our next training cycle. We are doing something new this time, and because of our race schedule, we are training for two events simultaneously. Our Wine & Dine Two Course Challenge training program officially started last week (playing a little catch-up) and the “build-up” portion …
Since last week’s post about how to prepare your body for a Disney vacation, I have had some folks ask me about how to get started with a walking program. The biggest piece of advice I have is just that: have a plan. But, which plan do you pick? There are tons of beginner walking …
I was recently reminded that I never formally introduced you guys to our new base of operations. I managed to keep the whole process a secret (even if I did throw out a teaser or two) leading up to the day of the big reveal. Then just like that, it was ours, and well… we …
So you’ve saved for a year (or more) with help from the cool app you downloaded to your mobile device, had monthly planning/budget meetings, even shared your fancy spreadsheet with family members. Tickets are purchased, resort and dining reservations are made, fast passes are booked, then ultimately the family is loaded and you are off …
One of these things is not like the other… singing yet? 🙂 Ah, the sage wisdom of Mr. Rogers. Yesterday, Sandy and I ran in the Sunshine Run 10k in Austin. This is our second year to do the race, and we really enjoy the event, and appreciate the hard working YMBL & Sunshine Camps …
