Every Monday I go to yoga. It’s a community class offered by the city and was a much more affordable option than a yoga studio. After all, I’m just trying this out to see if I like it. After 3 weeks, I’ve noticed a few things: My core still needs work. Certain yoga poses are… [Read More]
Barefoot Running: What Not to Do Your First Time
I really only have two problem spots: the momma blister on the big toe and the tiny blood blister on the heel: The other little blisters and scrapes aren’t really noticeable.

Testing, 1, 2, 3, Run Commute!
I’m Run Commuting! Oh how twitter is changing my life. But let me back up a second…. Just under a year ago I moved to an apartment that is a mere 2.2 miles from where I work. I thought, “Wow, I’m close enough to go home for lunch. Close enough I could bike, even! I… [Read More]

Marathons and Marriage: An Ode to Partner Running
2 ½ months into dating, Jason & I signed up for a 4-month marathon training/fundraising program together. This could’ve been disastrous. He wasn’t an experienced runner. I wasn’t a runner at all! But we discovered that we both liked the idea of tackling this bucket-list challenge and we talked each other into it. I got… [Read More]

Race Recap: RNR San Antonio 2011
Originally posted November 2011 during my quest to run 7 Rock N Roll Series events in one year. I was able to participate in this event because the RNR Series paid for my hotel and travel.
