Last year, I completed my first sprint triathlon. I had no idea what I was doing while training and was confused regularly I found in free online sprint tri training plans. I needed help. Here is a guest post from Katie, a friend I met at Snowbird last January, who is one badass triathlete with […]

My memorial day started a little later than most and was dedicated to my triathlon training primarily. On Saturday, I woke up and went for a swim using a workout that Josh Crosby gave to me. Marni, one of the Oakley gals, is also a triathlete and gave me some pointers so I was excited […]

I’m turning over a new leaf and becoming a member of the #DawnPatrol as Rachele pointed out. Why did she say this? On Monday I took a class at 7:15 am and then at 6:30 am on Wednesday at Recycle Studio with her. With the book coming down to the wire, I’m trying to get […]

In case you missed it, I had a live chat on YouTube featuring my experience so far as a student with IIN. Some of you left questions on a previous post and I did answer all of them. The video is 23 minutes long, so apologies if you just want the answer to one quick […]

On Thursday afternoon, I flew to Miami for a long weekend. I’ve wanted to try FlyWheel for awhile now and when I saw they had a studio in Miami Beach, I signed up for a class Friday at noon. Your first class is always free so this made it an economical option as well.  When […]

This weekend was low key and just what I needed. After an indulgent Nashville trip, this was my chance to lay low before heading to Miami. Friday night I checked out the Gilt City Warehouse sale. It was a zoo. The past 2 Gilt sales I’ve been to, I’ve paid for tickets and waited in a […]

I love when new fitness studios open in Boston! Recycle Studio has expanded to a second location on Boston Common (the first block of Newbury). I took Rebuild Ride this morning for the inaugural 9 am class that combines 30 minutes of cycling with 30 minutes of abs and arm strength training. I signed up […]

In New York City, cycling studios like SoulCycle and FlyWheel have a cult following but even after 6 years, their studios have yet to migrate to Boston. Luckily, we don’t need them thanks to a few local fitness enthusiasts. Weston native, Cate Dwyer lived in New York City right after college falling in love with […]

Do you need inspiration? An 82 year-old man swam 2.1 miles, biked 114, and ran a marathon to complete the World Championship Ironman race in Kona. You can run a 5K. You can run a 10K. You can do a triathlon. You just need to believe you can. I shot a ton of video while […]

Have you ever cried at a finish line? From my own Chicago Urbanathlon to spectating the Boston Marathon, I’m not one to be shy of tearing up. In Hawaii, the emotions were brought to an entirely new level. All week, as social ambassadors for Timex, we interviewed the different amateur and professional athletes competing. Many […]
