2009Skating In Paris
Filed Under (Fitness Confessions) by Admin on 15-08-2009
One of these days, before I die, I’m gonna do this. I’ve been hearing about it for a while. Just need to go ahead and book that plane ticket! 
What’s funniest to me is the fleet of ambulances following them. Just in case, huh?Paris will see me and my blades someday real soon!

2009Gear Review – PUMA Cell Voltra
Filed Under (Mico Fitness) by Admin on 13-08-2009
For the past several years my running shoe of choice has been the Mizuno Wave Rider (MSRP: $95), which is a neutral-cushioned shoe that I have found requires zero break-in. It’s a great overall running shoe, but I think my Mizuno’s may have met their match!

2009Fitness Clothes: Where To Spend, Where To Save
Filed Under (Equipment Experiments) by Admin on 06-08-2009
Socks and jellybeans. My two favorite things. If my feet are wrapped in the pelts of Muppets and my belly is full of sour simple sugars then I am a happy girl. Unsurprisingly I have a wide assortment of both but today I’m just going to talk about the socks. I have furry socks, loud socks, knee-highs, thigh-highs (with little bows!), invisible socks, patterned socks, holey socks and lacy ankle socks. But do you know what I do not have? Real athletic socks. I know. The tragedy is unspeakable. Despite owning – I kid you not – 30+ workout tank tops, for some reason I never buy athletic socks. Probably because I can’t get them second hand like I do everything else.

2009Getting Lean At Any Age
Filed Under (Mico Fitness) by Admin on 05-08-2009
I was chatting with a friend this morning and they went on and on about how difficult it is to lose weight at their age (mind you, this individual is a good 10 years younger than me!). After a while all I started to hear was blah, blah, whine, whine, excuse, excuse (I’m expecting my phone to ring within minutes of posting this!)

Filed Under (Equipment Experiments) by Admin on 05-08-2009
Right after “Are you having twins?” (um, NO but thanks for making me feel huge) the single most frequently asked question I get in regards to my pregnancy is “How do I do ab work while pregnant?” I’ve already busted the myth that pregnant women shouldn’t do ab work but now it’s time for more detail.
