I’ll be honest…I used to have no patience with walking as exercise. Why would I walk if I could be running instead? Sullie was a great running partner until she was about 6-7 years old and decided that walking was more her speed. I started to appreciate walks with Sullie at the end of the [...]

October 30, 2016 { 8 comments }I love creating holiday-themed workouts and I thought Halloween was the perfect time for TWO Halloween-themed workouts…an indoor treadmill workout and a do anywhere bodyweight workout. You never know when that Halloween candy will have thinking, “I need to stop, drop and sweat!” (Maybe never? That’s okay too!) Also, the days are getting shorter and [...]

30 Rep Rowing Workout
January 8, 2015 { 12 comments }Most of the U.S. is experiencing extremely cold weather right now. Here in Charlotte the temperatures dropped down to 10 degrees last night and we barely broke 30 today. I get that these may be balmy temps for some of you…but not for my Georgia blood.

My Favorite Treadmill Workout
October 11, 2013 { 24 comments }Happy, happy Friday! When I run outside I am happy to keep a comfortable pace while I listen to music or an audiobook, enjoy the scenery and zone out.

Oh Rowing…
January 5, 2013 { 28 comments }I have been feeling a little blah and unchallenged with my workouts lately so this morning I decided to finally make my way back to CrossFit.
