February 2010

I'm going to switch gears from writing about training to talk about one of my other passions - MUSIC. To know me is to know how music is a huge part of my life. And I'm lucky to share my love of music with my husband Jim -- although our sonic tastes sometimes diverge, we have mutual appreciation of similar genres and we can depend on one another for support in road tripping it to concerts whenever possible.

One of the hardest concepts for me to grasp is the idea of "easy" weeks.

In my quest to get healthier and eliminate as much stress as possible, I seem to have done the opposite. Researching nutrition and dietary supplements has actually added stress to my life.

Several times recently, I have found myself reminiscing about my past life as a marathon runner. One of those times was after a friend took up running and suggested I might give tips from "a pro."
