Thursday at True Foods, I had one of the best healthy meals ever! I went to their Santa Monica location for lunch last time I was in California and knew this was a place I needed to revisit. My friend Cher and I couldn’t decide what to get so we decided to split three plates. [...]
I had roomie snap this picture Saturday afternoon post 5-mile run we did together. Roomie easily completed the little loop we did without having run once over the past 3 months. I wore my new Warm Up Oakley sunglasses and Long Sleeve Continuity Half Zip Jersey which was perfect for the 40-degree sunny forecast. Oakley sent [...]
I have wanted to go to a raw or vegan restaurant for a very long time and finally, I found someone that I knew I could drag along with me, Tina from Carrots ‘n’ Cake! Tina and I are doing a challenge this month with Harvard Pilgrim called the Well Together Challenge. We are encouraging you [...]
I’ve gone to Earth Bar three times since I’ve been here. This morning, I went for a long run to Runyon Canyon and actually ran up the less challenging side! It was a first. I only stopped to “hike” twice for about 40 yards. On my way back, I stopped and got the “Slim down” [...]
A 2012 Kona Ironman recap post will be coming tomorrow! I did however want to share some of my healthy travel activities from the week. I have probably the most important video shoot in Los Angeles next week so while I was here, unfortunately I was not able to partake in the fruity cocktails. It [...]

The workout was harder than I expected in a good way, especially the pushup burpees! However as anticipated, the actual fitness portion only [...]
So I know this is a fitness blog, but I had to share the gorgeous pictures from a wedding I went to this weekend. It was for two of Roomie’s college friends up in Vermont at the groom’s family farm. It was the most picturesque wedding I think I’ve been to. After landing back in [...]
After a week on the island of Nantucket, I am back on mainland… for now. Vacations are often not the most relaxing experiences. Despite needing some needed rest after my sister’s wedding last weekend, I am utterly and officially drained. The end of summer is always bitter sweet. While on one hand, I’m always sad [...]
“Just think of it as a workout. The quicker you go, the more calories you’ll burn and sooner you will finish.” Roomie suggested this to me on Sunday while packing up our apartment. I was terrible at packing but once it was all boxed up, I turned into this turbo charged lady. On Monday, our [...]
After 9 nights in Argentina, I am en route back to my hometown. This has been an incredible vacation. I believe I have never eaten more steak or drank more wine in such a short time period. I also feel as though I have had enough dulce de leche to satisfy a lifetime. I know [...]
