No answers…and I’m ok with that!
Hi World! Virginia here! Since my last post, I have not figured out my “what’s next” issue. I have looked around A LOT, but I don’t have any real answers. Someone suggested the Beach to Battleship, which I would LOVE to do because I’ve read great reviews, but I can’t do it because I can’t […]
Yoga, The Swedish Chef & the IMCDA Bike Course
(There’s a video at the bottom of this post… and it likes to spontaneously start… so scroll to the bottom to pause it, and/or turn down your volume.) I went back to Hot Yoga today. (Hi, I’m Meredith, and I have an addictive personality.) Followed it up by an hour on the elliptical and a […]
Beauty & the Yoga Beast
I have dabbled in yoga in the past, but really only the P90x version. (“Do your best! Forget the rest!” Yeah, Tony Horton. You da man.) The one other yoga experience I had was at the local YMCA, and it must have been more like a stretch class, because I didn’t get much out of it. […]
When Plans Get Dicked
Like many things lately, yesterday did not go as planned. The plan? Ride 100 miles on the Challenge of the Centuries ride… also known as “Assault on Dick’s Hill.” (You can imagine the jokes and fun we’ve all had with that one. Oh man.) My parents had the kiddos for the weekend, so the Expert […]
Searching for the next….
Hey all! Virginia here… This time last week (7:30 am Sunday morning), I was finished with the swim and making my way out onto the bike. It has only been one week. ONE WEEK. With the craziness of end of school work and end of school mommying, it feels as if it has been weeks […]
Open Water, Running and Hope
Early this AM at Mary Alice Park, a great cast of characters headed out for open water. There was an Expert. A Weatherman. A Monster. A Fish. Columbus. Pickups. Fish is the friend with a new nickname…. Fish is Carrie. I told her I was going to nickname her “Freak,” because she is an incredible […]

I have written dedications to my Dad, my Mom, Coach Monster, Grandparents, YOU, my SBM friends, Yoda, Sweet Red and Mountain Goat, and Dr. MMH, Ilana Katz and McBlessings. After this one, there […]

Product Review: Koss Headphones FitClips & FitBuds
This is a sponsored post. All opinions are my own. FTC Disclosure here. Headphones usually hate me. Forget ear buds. Won’t even begin to stay in my ears. I was excited to try these Koss Fitclips, but I had my doubts. I mean, headphones are not my friend. Koss advertises that these headphones are: Ideal […]
