I will let all of you in on a little secret. After the 2010 Wine and Dine 1/2 Marathon I swore running and I were done. We were breaking up and no we did not plan to stay friends. I finished that race in pure misery. As excited as I was to get my medal [...]

I would like to think that I am not alone in not being crazy about taking dietary supplements in the mornings. I feel like I am doing really well to get my multivitamin down. With that said, and I hate to admit this, I was getting somewhat lax in taking my much needed daily calcium [...]

I am pretty sure things with fun or fancy names taste better. For example, I could have called tonight’s dinner open faced egg sandwiches with amaretto berries.
