Being Honest with Yourself + Liebster Award
Happy Motivation Monday! I'm all about NOT comparing yourself to others, because in a lot of instances, people who do that end up tearing themselves down emotionally and picking out every little flaw about themselves. Plus, it's so much better for everyone if you are...
The Hottest Half
Hope you're having a great Sunday! Guess what I did this morning? I ran my 20th half marathon! I haven't mentioned this race on the blog (or Facebook or Instagram) since I wasn’t really training for the race, and knew it wasn’t going to be one of my better ones. ...

How is your 30-Day Ab Challenge going? I'm already feeling the burn! If you haven't joined in, it's not too late! It is too late, however, to write a real Work Out Wednesday post today (it's in the very wee hours of the morning as I write this, but I'll wait to...
Your 30-Day Ab Challenge Starts NOW!
Happy Motivation Monday! Did you get to check out the 7 things I always have in my refrigerator or freezer from yesterday's post? I'm really excited to kick off the 30-Day Ab Challenge ... when I posted on Facebook, there were at least a couple who said they would...
7 Things that are ALWAYS in my refrigerator/ freezer
On Thursday on Instagram, I shared a picture of my grocery haul for the week(end). As you know, Kevin and I both travel for work Monday-Thursday, so our grocery buying habits are a bit out of the ordinary. After eating out for every single meal Monday-Thursday, we...
How to safely exercise in the summer heat
If you many fitness-related blogs, you've probably seen a fair number of posts on how to run or exercise through the summer heat. You may also be thinking that I'm late to the game, as it is already a week into August (incidentally, average temperatures in the US are...
