EnergyBits Review and Giveaway

The giveaway has ended. Congrats Kevin T!   “ENERGYbits are only available at ENERGYbits.com, and Jonathan (their Brand Manager) has shared with me that he’d be happy to connect anyone with a current ambassador to share a discount on a bag of bits – you can email him at jlevitt@energybits.com“ I had seen references of EnergyBits all over twitter and some blog reviews earlier, but my interest was piqued when someone tweeted about fighting off the onset of sickness with the bits. Wait…

Winter Break Training Recap: Dec 21 – Jan 4

Winter Break Training Recap: Dec 21 – Jan 4

I don’t usually write a weekly training plan or recap (although I think it is a great idea to be accountable in public), but these past week of winter holidays has been so blissful that I’m compelled to record and brag about it. And perhaps continue this trend so you can get a glimpse into what workouts with a person who wants to do everything and probably has no clear goal looks like. I’m sure there are quite a few…

Resolution Run 5k 2014

Resolution Run 5k 2014

January 1st. The time for resolutions. And the mandatory “Resolution Run”. This race has almost become a tradition for me for the past 4 years (I missed it last year and well … my racing year did not go well, so why jinx myself!). We’ve always gone as a family with my minions doing the kids races, but this year Daddy didn’t wake up even when I poked him quite a few times, so I guiltily went by myself. Apart from…

Highlights of 2013

Highlights of 2013

The time between Christmas and New Years is recap and summary time. Just like last year, I am following Miss. Zippy’s lead in looking back at “How was your year of running?” Best Race Experience 2013 was super low key for me with no major races. And the 2 major races I did this year tie for best race experience. I went into the race burnt out, completely under trained and experiencing all sorts of weird niggles and pains, but Little…

12 Days of Christmas WOD

12 Days of Christmas WOD

Christmas Eve was my 4 year “runniversary”. What better way to celebrate than with a run with BRFs (and by having a giveaway. Don’t forget to enter the giveaway for some great prizes)! Although I would have liked 12  miles, I cut it short at 5 since I wanted to do crossfit as well! I started back at Crossfit after a 2-3 month hiatus (sickness, vacation and more sickness), just in time to celebrate the 12 days of Christmas. They…

4year Runniversary Giveway

4year Runniversary Giveway

On Christmas Ev, 4 years ago, I took my first running steps out of fear that I would not be able to complete my first race – a half marathon 12 weeks away. At the same time, I started this blog to document my thoughts. Never did I think that those first steps would stay with me and carry me to 4 years. Running and me have had our ups and downs, but after the first year, it has been…

Koss Fit Series Review

Koss Fit Series Review

This post is sponsored by FitFluential LLC on behalf of Koss. All opinions, as always, are my own. I was recently sent the Koss Fit Series headphones (the FitBuds and the FitClips) to review as part of a FitFluential campaign. If you aren’t familiar with the Fit Series, Koss’ designers teamed up with Gold Medalist Dara Torres to create the world’s first headphones designed specifically for women, by women. Given my history with active headphones, I was a bit skeptical. Both…
