Surf's up! (I wish...) A review of the SURFSET® Fitness class

It's February.  It's cold.  It's snowing (again).  And, I really miss the beach and hot summer days. About a year ago I ran across the SURFSET® Fitness class which simulates surfing indoors to provide a great workout.

We've got winners!

Happy Wednesday everyone!  I don't know about you, but I couldn't be happier it is Wednesday; it's been a long week already and I can't wait to get to Friday, AND it's finally time to select winners for the free mud run entries.  Alright, let's get down to business, we have four lucky ladies that have won entries into the Pretty Muddy 5k obstacle race; they are...

Marathon on a whim and more race discounts?!?!

My first marathon was on March 17, 2013.  Since then, I ran two more marathons (one of them being part of the 48.6 mile Dopey Challenge). After completing my last marathon as part of the Dopey Challenge I've been kind of taking it "easy" and just running (mostly speed workouts) and focusing on strength training, yoga, and mixing more cycling into my routine.  It's been going great, but every day I have this nagging in the back of my mind telling me that I need to do a fourth marathon before March 17th.

Sunday Breakfast Experimenting

Sunday is usually our lazy day.  We still go to the gym at some point for an hour or two, but we take our time getting up in the morning, watch some tv, and usually make a big breakfast.

This morning, I finally tried making Gluten Free Protein Pancakes. I've been wanting to make them for months and never got around to it but this snowy weekend seemed like the perfect time to try them out, and, I actually had everything I needed to make them in the house already.

Free Pretty Muddy Race Entries!

Happy Friday AND Happy Valentine's Day! :)

Back at the beginning of the week I posted about a great mud race called Pretty Muddy (http://prettymuddywomensrun.com/).  Just a quick reminder, it's an awesome women's only untimed 5k with obstacles that has a partnership with Susan G. Komen to help find a cure for Breast Cancer.

I have a total of four race entries (two standard race entries - up to a $69.50 value; and two family edition entries - up to a $45.00 value) to give away to four lucky ladies!  For more information on what a family edition entry is, please visit http://prettymuddywomensrun.com/.

Muddy Monday

Ever since I started running races, I've always wanted to participate in one of the many awesome Mud Runs that are out there; in particular, one has stood out to me; the Pretty Muddy race series.  You might be wondering, "what is it that makes this one stand out from the others"?
