So today started my 21-day eating challenge. It was going to be a 21-day Clean eating challenge, I have found that there are at least 2-million definitions for "clean eating", so I am going with my version of eating healthy. It is easy to do and easy to understand. I do not have to find… Continue reading Day-1 – I really want a cookie

10 things I learned over the past 21-days
Well, today is my 21st day. I ended it at boot camp, which is appropriate since it is this boot camp that inspired me to try this in the first place. Also, today's class instructor was The Vince, see my post from my second day to learn about The Vince. It was an exciting challenge;… Continue reading 10 things I learned over the past 21-days
The Amazing Race
This is not a great picture but it is the only one I have from today's race. Today I ran a 1/4 marathon with my daughter, I love when my daughter races with me and it has been a while since we have done one together. A little about the race course – The finish… Continue reading The Amazing Race
Disappointment
I have felt this way before and I am sure I will again, the feeling that getting out there, even if it does not go well, is better than not going at all. I went out for my run this morning, I was about a mile in and had to call it quits and go… Continue reading Disappointment
One week to go
One week to go, two-thirds of the way there, almost done. These are all things I am thinking today, I am tired today, not so tired that I am not going to keep doing this, but definitely tired. Boot camp this morning was early and a tough workout, 60-minutes of any activity other than sleeping… Continue reading One week to go

T.G.I.F.
That is right, it has been 11-days straight I am not beyond using an old school acronym and a cute kitten to fill my blog. But, I still held up my end of this deal; I am here to share my words with you and I got down with the Beginners' Yoga video today. Beginners'… Continue reading T.G.I.F.
The Longest Day
Today was a good day, but a long day. Early running, light breakfast, off to work (5 hours from my home), several hours at work (no lunch), 5-hour drive home, etc. Glad to be home, happy to be on Day-9 and still going. By the way, this is hard; working out every day and writing… Continue reading The Longest Day
One week down, two to go
http://maickelmelamed.com/Quien_es.html - This man, Melamed Maickel, finished the Chicago Marathon yesterday. What makes that so remarkable? He is battling Muscular Dystrophy; it took him about 16-hours, but he finished. I would like to state that any excuse I have or thought I might have, is now invalid. I am on Day-7, or a third of… Continue reading One week down, two to go
