Today was my last day commuting from my apartment to my office — with a pit stop at the gym for a little spinning and butt exercising. More on that momentarily. For the past year and a month-ish, I have [...]

Date: March 30, 2012 at 9:14 am- by Ali- Comment(s): 44

Today we are going to talk about being “full-out,” which is not to be confused with “Full House.” Because in real life, going full-out means being balls-to-the-wall and, as my spin instructor this morning said, “not bullshitting it.” (I wanted [...]

Making Good Decisions

Date: November 4, 2011 at 8:27 am- by Ali- Comment(s): 47

I really thought today’s run was going to suck. That’s a good attitude to have, right? Coach Cane had me running 14 miles: the first 10 slower than my marathon goal pace (semi-success!) and the final four faster than my [...]

Summer Friday! I only have to work until 1! I’m wearing a pink dress! With stains on it! This week freakin’ flew by. Last night after work I did yoga. Wonderful, 75-minute, vinyasa yoga. My body needed it. It’s been [...]

Happy Thursday! I said it yesterday and I’ll say it again: This week has been a super speedy one. I can hardly even remember what happened on Monday. So let’s keep moving right along and get down to it: Today [...]

Not only did we all survive the week, we’re also officially into summer. Happy long weekend! I’m pretty pumped about the fact that my office is closing at 1 pm today. I’m even more pumped about the fact that I [...]
