A journey through motherhood, running, and life.
Before I get into the Foodie Penpals post, I realized I didn’t announce the winners of the Chobani Champions Giveaway…here they are: Tia and Christine – please contact me so I can arrange to have the yogurt shipped to you!

My son is at the age (13 mo) where he wants EVERYTHING that mommy and daddy eat and drink. Thankfully, we eat healthy about 95% of the time, so some of our good habits have already rubbed off on him (I will not go into detail about the other 5% of the time!). My husband [...]
I am starting a new feature on NYCRunningMama to highlight some of my favorite runners!! I wanted this column to be different from the usual runner bio… I am going to be featuring runners who have recently PR’d – it could be a race or training run. It could be on the treadmill, track, or [...]
I’ve always loved Valentine’s Day. Growing up, it was one of my favorite holidays. My dad would give my sisters and I a single rose and a box of chocolate. My mom would have a few thoughtful gifts and her famous handmade cards in our lunchbags. I couldn’t wait to open my lunchbag at school [...]

I don’t consider myself to have a sensitive stomach but for whatever reason, when it comes to protein nutrition bars, my stomach just doesn’t seem to agree with them (with the exception of PowerBar brand [...]

Before I explain to you why I would be a great addition to your team, let me give you a brief background of how I ended up where I am today. Exactly three years ago, I was getting ready to return from Iraq after my third deployment with the US Army as a Captain in [...]
