Quick Trip
Hi friends. How was your weekend? Mine was great, since it included a quick trip home to Clearfield, PA to visit my parents and to drop-off a certain pretty little lady. My mom is puppy-watching while Hubs and I are on vacation. And we leave Friday, by the way (insert: cries of joy). Did I mention that I’m going on vacation? To St. John in the Virgin Islands? Be jealous Saturday morning, the Hubs and I made our favorite Cinnamon Apple Crepes so that I would have a full belly to get me through the drive to PA. Unfortunately, Hubs … Continue reading

What Goes Up
Must come down. Unfortunately. More on that later. But first, I need to show you my chef-husband who whipped up some chocolate chip pancakes on Saturday morning to start our weekend. Steak and potatoes last night and now homemade pancakes? Who is this man!?!? And how do I get him to stick around? After breakfast, Hubs and I enjoyed a nice walk outside in the beautiful sunshine before coming home to a quick smoothie lunch. Then it was off to Brooklyn with my best friend, Lauren, to take a High Falls Class with Hollywood Stunts. Keep in mind, this was … Continue reading

NYC Half Marathon Recap
The BIG question answered: Did I run the NYC Half Marathon? YES! The smaller question: Did I run the NYC Half Marathon pain free? Well, No. But that’s okay. After spending some quality time with my family on Friday and Saturday night, I was up bright and early to get ready for the race. Usually I have a peanut butter and jelly sandwich for a pre-race meal, but seeing as I gave up peanut butter for lent, that wasn’t really an option. I settled for a Clif Mojo bar instead and that seemed to work just fine. When we got … Continue reading

WD-50 and Family Fun
This weekend was the NYC Half-marathon. I was lucky enough to win a spot in the lottery as was my sister and brother-in-law, who flew in from Denver, CO for the occasion. Despite my recent injuries, I was determined to run the race with my family, which is why I’ve been rehabbing my foot like a champion. Before the race on Sunday, my family embarked on a little NYC fun. Friday afternoon I picked up my sister, Jobie and brother-in-law, Phil from the airport. We headed back to my apartment and got ready for a special treat: WD-50. Cross that … Continue reading
Iontophoretic Patch
Another day another PT session for my posterior tibial tendonitis. This one was at 7 am I actually managed to drag my butt out of bed at 5 am so that I could hit the pool at the gym for a quick 1-mile morning swim. The pressure of the water feels great on my foot and the kicking really seems to loosen up my ankle joint. My physical therapy session looked much like yesterday. Now, about that anti-inflammatory patch that my PT places over my posterior tibial tendon. This Iontophoretic Patch is pretty nifty. Dexamethasone (the anti-inflammatory) is applied to … Continue reading
Weekend at Home
Hola! How has everyone been? Sorry that I’ve been MIA, but it’s been for a good reason. Promise. We’ll get to that later. First, I wanted to update you on the fantastic weekend that I had. It was my Mom’s birthday this past weekend (Happy Birthday Mom. Again), so the Hubs, Stormy and I packed up and headed to Central Pennsylvania to visit the rents. Friday morning, I made oatmeal sans peanut butter and snacked on a salad for lunch. Then we started the long haul from NYC to Central Pennsylvania. Gotta love road trips. Hubs and I decided to … Continue reading
