It was yet another week of glorious, mild weather, although we started with three solid days with zero sun. Mom Nature more than made up for it with mid-week temps in the 50s, before it all came crashing down with #alltherain. We did however manage to miss out on the snow…again. Here’s how the workouts [Read More]
Running Through the Season of Giving

Monday: Walk 4 miles, Track Intervals Tuesday: Walk 4 miles, Upper Body Strength +Core Wednesday: Walk 4 miles Run 4 Trail Miles Thursday: Walk [Read More]
Coffee at the Most Wonderful Time of the Year
It’s December and that means it’s coffee time with Deborah, Coco and you! I’m going with my usual Starbucks Winter Blend with collagen and Chobani Peppermint Mocha creamer. Over coffee I’d tell you it’s my birthday month. It seems to sneak up faster and faster every year. The Caveman asked what I wanted and I [Read More]
Thanksgiving Week in Maintenance Mode
We’re winding down a long Thanksgiving weekend. While 2020 is the year that keeps on giving, can you believe we’re just about to the final month of it?? Here’s how the week in workouts went. More of the usual, and my Garmin let me know about it, by giving me a “maintenance mode” status. Apparently [Read More]
Black Friday Runfessions
Welcome to a special Black Friday edition of the Runfession Friday Linkup. It no longer matters if Costco’s been selling Christmas stuff since September. It is now OFFICIALLY the holiday season. Before partaking of any holiday shopping though, it would do a body good to step into the Runfessional. I’ll start. We’ve all sent texts [Read More]
Running Toward Thanksgiving
The big news here is Thing 1 tested negative for Covid (she tests weekly) and flew home from Atlanta on Saturday. Hooray! I’m not sure how she’s avoided Covid (she’s done her best with masking and social distance, but still) but I am grateful! The week in workouts was pretty much more of the usual, [Read More]
Gluten-Free Gingerbread Protein Waffles
I’ve been wanting to make waffles for awhile now and haven’t been able to find my waffle maker. A certain Caveman, who shall remain nameless, most likely tossed mine while I wasn’t looking. I’m not joking. He has a history of doing this. RIP Kitchen Aid food processor. Anywho, I got myself a new waffle [Read More]
In a Holiday State of Mind
After a week filled with extraordinarily nice days, our fantasy weather came crashing down and normal November conditions set in. Oh well, it was so very nice while it lasted. Here’s how my week of workouts went: Monday: walk 4 miles, Track Intervals Tuesday: Walk 4 miles, otherwise rest Wednesday: Walk 4 miles, Run 3 [Read More]
Roasted Honey Chipotle BBQ Sweet Potatoes
I’ve always loved to cook, but especially since the pandemic shutdowns started back in March, I cook at home A LOT. I use lots of spices and seasonings on the regular. What if those simple seasonings I use every day contained vitamins and minerals my family and I need? Well now they do. Recently I [Read More]
Let’s String Together Some Good Days
We had the most beautiful, mild weather this week. I was more than happy to turn off the heat and throw open the windows. Pretty sure this is our Indian Summer. Despite the #shitshow that is our country right now, Mom Nature is coming through for us and for that I’m grateful. Here’s how the [Read More]
