This post is sponsored by Zespri SunGold Kiwifruit but the content and opinions expressed here are my own. As we transition from spring to summer, I’m all about transitioning into new and healthier habits. Now that I’m working earlier in the morning between my full-time job and my indoor cycling class, plus doing a better…
Today presented some challenges. They were really innocuous challenges, but they were frustrating nonetheless. You know one of those days where just a bunch of little things pile up and you become frustrated? Today was one of those days. The final straw for me was when I wasn’t able to get in the workout I’d…
It’s that time again! Goal setting, here we come! I think I did pretty well in April with hitting my goals. In fact, I did pretty awesomely, if I may say so myself. I hit a plateau a few weeks back, but I’ve started incorporating even more strength into my fitness routine, and I’m kicking butt now!…
I don’t know about you guys, but I consider oral health to be an important piece of the health and wellness puzzle. When I was fresh out of college, I didn’t pay much attention to it. My mom wasn’t making my dental appointments anymore, I didn’t always have dental insurance prior to my government jobs,…
I’m pretty sure that’s not what it’s called, but that’s what I’m calling it. Tomorrow afternoon, I will attempt my first golf. I am going golfing so I will be a golfing golfer who golfs.

On Tuesdays, I teach indoor cycling at the Sport & Health at Pike & Rose in North Bethesda, Maryland. The format I teach is called SPARK! This is a signature class was developed by an indoor cycling instructor with US Fitness, and she led the class where I got certified! People often ask me what…
I am so excited! I ordered a new pair of running shoes, and they arrived today! I’ll be posting a video explanation of everything when I have some extra time on my hands, but for now, just know that I bought a pair of Hoka One One Clifton 5s, and they’re my first Hokas ever….
As my current favorite TV doctor says, “how y’all doin’?” This is a quick and dirty post about… well, future quick and dirty posts. I’ve been doing a lot of self-reflecting over the last couple of months, and I realize I impose a lot of additional stress and pressure on myself – much of which is…
Have you ever hit a fitness plateau? Have you ever known you were on the plateau right when you hit it? I recently hit a plateau and didn’t realize it for a couple of weeks. I couldn’t figure out how I could be teaching indoor cycling classes at least three times a week, playing volleyball…
