  • Work it out.

    A beautiful morning full of sun and that makes for great workout weather. The picture to the left is from my front yard – it’s clematis. What makes this picture really special – Scotty took it this morning and sent it to me and said: have a good day! He’s so darn sweet. Warmup 400m…

  • Great day, great workout!

    What a great workout today. We mix up partners each week and this week’s partner had a ton of will! She pushed through no matter how hard it got. I love working out with people like that – makes me try harder. I am rockin the pull-ups. They are so hard but man, I love…

  • What’s the Fittest City in America?

    What’s the Fittest City in America? | SocialWorkout.com. Where do all the healthy people live? I’s gotta be San Francisco — everyone in the Bay Area is training for a triathlon, right? Or maybe it’Denver where everyone hikes to work or whatever. Nope, turns out it’s…Washington D.C. Apparently, the buttoned-up beltway crowd sweats it out…

  • Back at it again

    Finally a Monday workout outside! It was hot, humid and we all worked up a good sweat. My ankle has been bothering me so I did modify a few exercises. It seems I can put weight on my ankle no problem but when I do any movement that flexes it – that’s the problem. I…

  • Breathe it all in

    It’s been a crazy day. I woke up to a light rain/mist in the air and decided to go for a run. I figured if it’s not raining heavy, it’s probably great weather for one. I ended up doing about 6mi on the trail. There were a few other runners out there with me and…

  • A wonderful morning!

    I went for a run this morning with 2 of my favorite ladies. We met at Partlows on the W&OD Trail and did 4 miles together – I ran .5 mi there and back to meet them.  It certainly makes the time go by faster and the run seem easier when you have good company.…

    Still a bit under the weather so my initial idea of getting up and going for a run fell to the wayside. I did want to share some interesting news I have come across the past few days: Vitamin D and colorectal cancer focus of new Arizona study U of AZ is my Alma mater…

  • Not feeling so hot

    I don’t feel good today and it really showed in my workout. It was hard to go and hard to finish. The PT station was a killer to me and I really wanted to just go home.  I may take a cue from the way I feel and skip tomorrow – who knows. Warmup 400m…

  • Get out there and work on your fitness!

    Another great workout. We switched up partners which always adds a new element to the workout. Kristen was my partner and her and I are about the same height and level and we kicked ass.  We finished the workout – pull ups and all. And trust me, it was a lot of Pull -ups 30,…
