Meatless Monday: Tuna-less Salad!
Happy Meatless Monday. It’s starting to feel a little like fall in the mornings/evenings and heats right up in afternoons to the 80’s! These poor GA trees don’t know when to change colors. Today, I’m sharing my easy tuna-less salad! I discovered a recipe a few years ago and make it once a week using […] Read more…
Life lately: yoga, running, and my body!
Welcome to October (where is the cooler weather?)! The summer flew by for me, maybe it’s because I had to deal with my beautiful 2 year old’s new activities and the first trimester of pregnancy.

Alpharetta Mayor’s Challenge 5K Recap
Last night, I ran the Mayor’s Challenge 5K race downtown in Alpharetta, GA at the City Hall. First of all, I have never raced on a Thursday! Second, I didn’t expect it to be as big of race that it ended up being. It was sold out! Parking was tricky (non existent) at City Hall […] Read more…

What better way to celebrate Mother’s Day than to run a half marathon! On Wednesday, I signed up for the 13.1 mile race. I drag my husband and daughter to all of my races so on Sunday morning, I woke my husband up at 5:30am, excited and ready to go! He requested that I find […] Read more…
May Madness Running Plan
The last few weeks have been a bit rough on my body. Mid April, knee pain kept me from running and BJJ. At the end of the month, I ran 10 miles to get back into the groove! After that run, I decided I was going to create a May Madness Running Plan and run […] Read more…
Skincare to Fight Wrinkles & Breakouts!
Raise your hand if you have this skincare issue: oily skin prone to breakouts yet you need to fight wrinkles! I’ve never had clear skin but sweaty workouts add to the issue.
