Goodbye Permasweat

By On Friday, 30 July 2010 · Leave a Comment

I’ve been meaning to get some special sports detergent for awhile to give our stinky workout clothes some TLC, but just haven’t gotten around to buying some online or going to a specialty store. Well, I was looking at my dear sister’s wedding registry and discovered that Tide had come out with a Sport detergent. [...]

On your mark, get set . . .

By On Tuesday, 22 June 2010 · 2 Comments

I got cleared to exercise last week, but this morning was the first day that I hit the pavement. I know some people just don’t get it, but I LOVE running. It makes me feel good and keeps me sane. Giving up running halfway through my pregnancy was hard (admittedly continuing would have been harder [...]

32 Weeks

By On Wednesday, 7 April 2010 · 7 Comments

So, I’m at 32 weeks and I figure that means I have anywhere between 40-70 days to go. We’ll see what happens. I’ve been really blessed (seriously) with a fairly uneventful pregnancy and am still doing quite well, but I’m beginning to see more and more of pregnancy’s effects.

Although I’m still working out, [...]

Inspiration

By On Saturday, 2 January 2010 · 5 Comments

Generally when a new year rolls around everyone hits the gym in an attempt to fulfill their unrealistic New Year’s resolutions. Apparently with pregnancy I’m supposed to “take it easy” in the exercise realm, so this year’s resolution won’t involve any races just a commitment to keep putting on the tennis shoes (even if Noel [...]

Some Firsts

There has been an uncanny number of first time occurrences happening lately. On Saturday Noel ran the annual 1st Dam run, for the first time. For the first time, he won a ribbon for his age division (which was quite large by the way). Also, for the first time in our married life, [...]

Matthias visited from Germany and we had a roommate reunion from 2002-2003. And Danielle ran the Top of Utah [...]

M.O.S.S.

By On Friday, 31 July 2009 · 4 Comments

Two weekends ago we were privileged to attend what I like to call M.O.S.S. or the McConkie Outdoor Survival School. The destination for this test of endurance was the Grand Canyon. This wasn’t the typical camping trip I am used to from my youth. (Drive up to overlook. “Look, there it is.” Drive away.) Over [...]
