Happy Running

My Soapbox

The city wants to keep the tourists informed

Here is your disclaimer. You have clicked your mouse onto my site & can certainly click the “X” to close the page; if you do not like what you are reading. {Please stick around though!} I am an honest person & will tell it like it is (or so my friends & family say!). I encourage comments, however, don’t be rude, snarky, or judgmental. We are ALL just trying to get through this thing called LIFE.

I am not a physician, nor educated as a nutritionist/dietitian. If I give you a tip or advice on something that has worked well for me, take it or leave it; just know that there are MANY ways of doing things & reaching the same result. Definitely do research for yourself, & as with all aspects of life, be your own advocate!

Running should be a light-hearted sport, unless you’re the elite-of-the-elite & training for the Olympics! Enjoy yourself & embrace your training plan. Revisions can always be made, if needed. However {listen up!!}, I do expect dedication & commitment; I seriously dislike excuse-givers.

Lastly, I am OCD & extremely organized. Please don’t ever joke me! Ha!
