Tales and Tips from a Running Mom
I had an appointment yesterday with a pulmonary specialist. He couldn’t really give me a reason why I have pleurisy. Usually, people have pleurisy because of a serious illness like pneumonia or tuberculosis or because of trauma to that region of the body. I have not been sick and definitely haven’t had any trauma that [Read On]
In the twitterverse, I’ve seen lots of fellow runners talk about Energy Bits. They sounded intriguing so when the company generously offered to send me a sample, I was pretty excited. I’ve made a huge effort in the past few years to cut down or eliminate my consumption of anything artificial or generally bad for [Read On]
Well, really it’s 3 boys if you count hubby . Last week was my first week on my own with both boys and we all survived. Lucky for me, Ezra is an easy baby so far (I’m probably jinxing myself by saying that) so as long as he’s fed and has a clean diaper, he [Read On]
On Thanksgiving morning, hubby, Zain and I made the long quarter of a mile trek to the meeting spot of our neighborhood informal Turkey Trot 5K. Since I assumed we’d just be walking, I figured, why not sip some hot coffee along the way? When we arrived at the starting area, I was really impressed [Read On]
Disclaimer: This is the worst product review ever. I can’t actually review Zipfizz because their label does say that it is not recommended for pregnant women.

As a stay at home mom/running mom, there are 2 very important pieces of equipment that I need to keep running: my jogging stroller and my treadmill. If you’re better than me, then all you need is an alarm clock to wake up and get moving before your kids and spouse wake up. For me, [Read On]
I LOVE my Go Sport ID. I love it so much that for Christmas I wanted to spread the Go Sport ID love. I gave gift cards for Go Sport ID to 4 family members so they could create their own custom IDs. I also gave my hubby his very own Go Sport ID. On [Read On]
I have an addiction to Nuun. I must have my lemon-lime Nuun with me for all long runs. The Baltimore Marathon taught me that I must also have it with me during long races. I had a serious craving for my Nuun during that marathon. After I crossed the finish line, getting myself some Nuun [Read On]
If you do, you better finish finish up your 100 miles for the Winter 100 Challenge if you haven’t done so already! The Winter 100 Challenge will end on 2/29, but the fun will just be beginning for the lucky winner of the Garmin Forerunner 210. I have an insane love for my Garmin Forerunner [Read On]
Happy Friday everyone! On this beautiful (almost) Fall Friday, I just have one favorite thing for you and it’s a reminder to stay hydrated. I know for me, when it’s not as hot out, I sometimes fall short of getting enough fluids in my body, especially when running. The very kind folks at Crystal Light [Read On]
