I almost skipped this post this weekend, but I need to stay accountable, and just because I don't put it out there doesn't mean it didn't happen. The last few days have been really tough, but I've complained enough. I'm done feeling sorry for myself, and am ready to get back to being my normal, …

Therapy Thursday: Knowing your Weaknesses
Over the last 36 hours I found myself reverting back to an unhappy place. I was faced with a situation that consistently makes me turn into a person who accepts my fate rather than fight for what I want, and what makes me happy. Yesterday I skipped my workout for no reason. Instead, I took …
My 5 year breathe-aversary
I'm a sickly person. Seriously, I'm allergic to everything living, I'm an asthmatic, and my body refuses to tolerate cow dairy. In the third grade I had strep throat 13 times, they tested me for everything, and determined, I'm just a sickly person. 5 years ago, I was in my first year of Grad school, …
Weekend Recap & April Goals
I consistently walk the line between flexible and steadfast in keeping to my training plans. I'm a firm believer in listening to my body, and there are some days I need to change up my plans to do what it needs. I blame yoga for this. I've had a number of instructors that start off …
Race Review & Pictures: The Color Run Nashville
A few months ago a friend texted me to ask if I wanted to do The Color Run. It was a no-brainer, as I'd missed doing one in Hartford last summer, and it was something fun to add to my Spring. Over the course of the last few weeks I got really excited, and started …

Therapy Thursday: Finding your Happy
No matter how much you love your life, your family & friends, your work, yourself, there will come a time where everything just feels like its wrong. This feeling can last for a day or two, or years, and it can be serious, and you may need professional help to get through it. I am …
Weekend Recap: Sometimes you just can’t do it all
If you remember, my weekend goals post was titled "I have too many goals". As it turns out, that was true, partly. Last night, I finally told myself I needed to get some sleep and that it was not the end of the world that some of the things I wanted to do, didn't get …

Post-Run Yoga: My favorite part of my run
I've mentioned my post-run yoga practice on a number of occasions, both here and on Twitter (@cldem), and a follower finally asked what some of my usual poses are for this. Amazingly, I'd never thought about posting it. I'm not sure if its because I assume everyone can magically see me doing it, or just …
Weekend Goals: I have too many
I already know I'm being overzealous with my weekend goals, but after traveling for work this week, again next week, and next weekend for a weekend of fun, I don't have any choice! I need to get my butt in gear and get it all done. So here they are: - Yoga tonight before bed …
