How to Create an Affordable At-Home Wellness Sanctuary
Special thanks to Groupon for sponsoring this discussion. All thoughts and opinions are my own. Confession: I kind of suck at body care.

Running gear: We love it. I know I sure do. Neon colors, super wicking, thumbholes, insulated, reflective. These are all words used to describe some of my favorite things. But running gear isn’t just for running anymore. Can you think of things you bought for running that you ended up using for much more? Waist [Read More]

This week’s Tuesdays on the Run is all about what else? Independence Day. Do you love running a good 4th of July race? Any fun traditions? As you read this I’m celebrating the 4th (and the Caveman’s birthday) on Palm Jumeirah in Dubai. (google images) Several months ago I scoped out the running/racing scene in [Read More]
