What’s better than giveaway? OK, there’s a lot that’d be better than a giveaway, but get excited!! In my journey, I have found that portion control is one of the biggest keys to weight loss. One gadget that makes portion control easier for me is my shot glass mini measure. I use this to measure…

On Saturday, Neal and I ran the DC Hot Chocolate 15K race at the National Harbor, just outside of Washington, DC. Our training began back in August and was a modified training program from when I ran a half marathon back in 2010. I really enjoyed our training program, which prepared us for a 10K,…

Running the DC Hot Chocolate 15K became a reality last night when Neal and I picked up our bibs and jackets at the DC Hot Chocolate Expo. I overheard last night that there are 22,000 people running this race. I have NO idea if that is true, but based on the expo, this is going…
