Well kids, 2011 is nearly over. In some ways, it’s been the best year of my life. I got married to the love of my life, went on an epic honeymoon cruise to Central America, visited Virginia and D.C., adopted two little kitties who give me so much joy and…
Besides eating at the Food and Wine Festival, Cristina and I had two nice meals in Disney while we were there at the beginning of October. The first was at Portobello in Downtown Disney while the other was the Hoop-Dee-Doo Musical Revue dinner and show. On Saturday, after our race,…
Anyone that knows Cristina and me will be quick to tell you that it seems like we are always at Disney World. We’ve actually bought season passes before. As I heard one man tell his friend at the entrance of Magic Kingdom: you may walk in age 37 but you…

We have been running for about three months. We are proud of what we have accomplished because this is actually the third time we have tried the C25K program. To make sure we stayed on course this time, we signed up for a race even before we started. And we…

The Argument Fat, Sick and Nearly Dead is a movie made by an Australian business man on how going on a juice fast changed his life for the better. My review of Fat Sick and Nearly Dead really isn’t about that. The plot is simple. An overweight man, Joe Cross,…
After our first 5K in Lockport, we were excited about keeping to our running schedule. We live on the east bank to the Mississippi River and are lucky to have paved biking/running paths on the levees. We were all set to go run on the west bank levee every other…
