This is a flashback to a post I wrote in 2013 (before I left my consulting job, and was still traveling weekly for work!) Hope you enjoy this revamp - just in time for spring break! Many of you have asked how to squeeze in workouts while traveling, and this is...
Last Workout Wednesday, when I talked about my new running shoes, I alluded to the fact that I’ve been dealing with a minor injury since about January or February. It started with very tight calves, that would occasionally cramp up so badly I could hardly take a step!...
It's Workout Wednesday!! What are YOU doing for your workout today? *Note: Before I even say anything, I want to caveat that I highly recommend getting fitted for running shoes. Although I will talk about what works for me here, it's silly to assume that shoes that...
How's that for a title? Well, it's Workout Wednesday, and today's post is a bit of a mishmash of workout tips ... I'll encourage you to participate in RRCA's Run@Work Day, tell you about a fun half marathon this weekend in Dallas, and do a quick review on a new...
