I just spent way too much time explaining to a random dude in Walmart why I am the way I am. I mean, he started it. The explaining. After he started talking to me like I was his wife. Which I wasn't. He figured that out. "I'm sorry." "No you're good." "I don't usually look … Continue reading Fall Risk Fitness Celebration

Athletic Goddess
One of my co-workers called me an Athletic Goddess this week. I mean, she didn’t write a full blog post about it or anything. But she said it right on the social medias for the world to see. So this is how I spend my last week of summer vacation. I was gonna take the … Continue reading Athletic Goddess
Spartan’s Coming
I’ve given up on my hair this week. Apparently it’s quite evident. When I walked into work this morning, co-worker asked if I’d cut my hair. When I responded in the affirmative, his response was not the standard, “looks good.” No. No, instead he asked, “are you pleased with it?” Am I pleased with... No, … Continue reading Spartan’s Coming
I Make The Coffee Now
Today was a two job day. This means that my lunch break was spent driving from one job to the next. Instead of actual lunching. I like food very much. I don't like no food very very much. When I rolled up into job #2, unlunched, my co-workers informed me that they'd broken the coffee … Continue reading I Make The Coffee Now
Forget CRL
I can't currently feel my legs. It's sad, really. Because I had such a nice rest day yesterday. It was beautiful. While it lasted. It ended pretty abruptly at 5:02pm today. That's when I drew my first card to determine my first exercise for HIIT Poker. At PlayFITStayFIT, it's never just a boring, straightforward workout. … Continue reading Forget CRL
Voluntary Rest Day
Yep. I'm doing that today. Voluntarily. I woke up at 5:00am when my alarm when off and made the call. Texted Rogue and went right on back to sleep. And now here I am resting and shit. Here's why. Y'all know how all of the social media networks went down Wednesday afternoon? And sent all … Continue reading Voluntary Rest Day
Accidental Two A Day
I had a plan when I woke up this morning. Leg Day with my Tiny Brazilian before work and Chakra Yoga with my Magical Yogess after. To get my hip sway back. Then off to be entertained by GJB. Because someone allowed him to emcee fireworks. Like, free styling words. In front of other people. … Continue reading Accidental Two A Day
Circle of Excellence
Last week, I was in the best shape of my life. This week, I have the lung capacity of a sedentary 80 year old lifetime smoker. Initially, I thought it was a recurrence of the Zombie Parasite that kept me from Iron Mountain last year. But I've been doing some research. And all symptoms point … Continue reading Circle of Excellence
Running Mill Mountain. Again.
I ran Mill Mountain three times in 10 hours this week. And then jumped straight into leg day. I didn’t even have to do that during the Blue Ridge Double. Pro tip: Don't spend the hour after leg day sleeping in your car. Because the car extrication process is going to be painful and graceless. … Continue reading Running Mill Mountain. Again.
The Gym Life Chose Me
"Stop whining. You chose this." "I didn't choose the gym life. The gym life chose me." And it chose the hell outta me this week. Because after my last post, after Beautiful Beastie worked my arms to the point of uselessness, Skratch and J-Vicious both dared me to go to Arm Day. So obviously I … Continue reading The Gym Life Chose Me
