This last week, I finally felt like we were back on track. All the sickness was finally out of our house and out of the boys’ daycare. It was our first “normal” week in a while. Which is to say that I got in a (mostly) normal training schedule for the first time in ages… Continue Reading

Motivation Monday: In Transition
Oh my oh my what a week was had in the Fit house this past week! There were peaks valleys, mountains and mold hills. It was pretty crazy. As I talked about last week, the honeymoon of being a stay-at-home mom is about to end and my last full week home with the kids was… Continue Reading
Motivation Monday: What a Week!

Motivation Monday: Conquering the Long Run
Well folks, another week is in the books. Is it just me or does it feel like time is moving a bit to quickly these days. I feel like I just finish hitting ‘publish’ on one Motivation Monday post and it’s already time to draft the next one. This past week was another scorcher. With… Continue Reading
Motivation Monday: Adapting without Conceding
I’ve talked recently about my desire and intent on living a No Excuses lifestyle, especially when it comes to my health. As with any public declaration, it’s really just a bunch of words until you’re put in a situation that really tests your conviction. My time came this past week. Several times. While making dinner… Continue Reading
