Mini Breaks Are Good, But, Glad They Are Usually Short
Today around 1:00pm EST, I decided to go for a run and wasn’t sure if I’d make 5 miles today or not. The desire was there, the fire was not. At the point of no return, I chose to turn off and finish with 3.5 miles. Not sure if it was the humidity or me [...]

It’s Summer, Go or Run Shirtless!
I guess that it’s easy for me on this subject, since I’m a runner, you better believe it, if I want to take my shift off, it’s off! I’ve had runs before where there was no thinking about it. I keep coming back to the issue of sun block, while I haven’t made full use [...]
