Happy Friday party people! Did this week wear on and on or was it just me? Because it’s the first weekend in March, I’m going to make this a hybrid Friday Five/Coffee Date post and I’m doing it in the Loving/Not Loving format. Because that’s how I’m rolling! Let’s get started, shall we? For the [Read More]
Bring On Spring Yoga Style with PrAna
You may have seen me getting my yoga on all over Instagram this month. That was PrAna and Sweatpink’s Flex and Flow Challenge. The truth is I’m no stranger to yoga. I’ve been down dogging it at home and in studios around the world since I was a teenager. I signed up for my first yoga [Read More]
Hip Opening Yoga for Runners
Did you know that we hold stress in our hips? Neither did I until I started watching Gaiam’s My Yoga TV. That’s why hip-opening yoga is so important for runners, especially. Have you gotten your free 30-day subscription to Gaiam TV from Stayfree yet? If not, do it, (I told you how here) I promise [Read More]
30 Days of Yoga with Stayfree and Gaiam TV
I signed up for my first yoga class when I was 19. It took place at sunset in a studio on the top floor of a high rise. The views were stunning and relaxing. I was hooked. More or less, yoga has been part of my life ever since. When life gets chaotic, it’s always [Read More]
5 Ways To Be A Better Yogi
I made it to a yoga class for the first time this year. I intentionally stayed away until now, letting the resolution crowds thin a bit. Alas the class was full. Busting at the seams, actually. Several straggled in late and we all sardined in even more. I was accommodating, until the last straw, that [Read More]
Field Trip Fun
Day-to-day, I’m mostly I’m up to my eyeballs, cleaning up dog poop, shuttling kids to playdates, hanging at the pool, weeding the garden and various other domestic engineering duties of questionable glamour. Last night I left my mundane housewife/mom duties behind and headed downtown for the Verizon Time Shift Party. It felt good to be [Read More]
Size Matters
I finally made my 2013 maiden voyage to the gym yesterday. Yoga was on tap. I hit up the infamous SYNO (sweat your nuts off) class I love so much. Not. The usual suspects were in place, the headstanding, leg windmilling lady was going full bore, no less than half a dozen already sweat dripping, [Read More]
November Rewind/December Goals
Miles Run: 60. I needed 65 miles to hit 1000 for the year, which I hit yesterday so booya! Bike 30. Races: 0 I may not have raced but that doesn’t mean I did not add to my stash of bling. This sparkly Rock n Roll series ‘heavy medal’ arrived the other day. Me likey! [Read More]
There’s No Shame on the B-List
I ventured into yoga the other day, my usual 30 minutes early in hopes of shoe-horning myself into a sliver of the much-coveted studio floor. Much to my surprise, I cracked the door to find the place empty. EMPTY! And cold. No blast furnace raging to melt our inhibitions and turn limbs to goo. I [Read More]
