Graced By Football

It’s fall football season. Fantasy teams have been drafted. Preseason games are almost done being played. And beach flag football season (Beach City Sports) commences in two weeks. Football has brought immeasurable friends, fun, love, and family into my life. I am Graced by Football (in Graced by Grit’s Delicious Tank in royal, which is…

Weekend Adventures | Feel Good Friday 073115

This was my weekend last weekend: And sure, it took me and the dog a little bit to recover from what was supposed to be two nights backpacking covering just 13 miles to two nights backpacking over 20 miles (landslide got in the way), but I think we’re both grateful for the opportunity to go…

Hardest Classes in OC

I had SO much fun “researching” the hardest workout classes in Orange County. Y’all know I love to lift hard and heavy, do yoga, and play lots of sports, so trying more classes definitely got me out of my routine. Trouble is, I want to figure out how to add them all INTO my routine!…

How 100 Calories Helped Me Do Things I Love: GoMacro

Celebs in GRACEDBYGRIT (Or, The Best Tank Tops Ever)

GRACEDBYGRIT: Water Shorts?

As we all know, I’m on a constant quest to find comfy shorts that photograph well for playing beach football. These are my current faves, but there’s a new short in town. GRACEDBYGRIT is a new company that just launched late last year, but already has tons of celeb fans—so like a good little faux…

Mindathlon

There’s the real thing. Then there’s the Tribathlon (which comes first? hot tub? steam room? or sauna?). And now, there’s the mindathlon, otherwise known as Wanderlust 108, the world’s first and only “mindful triathlon”: a 5K run, a 90-minute yoga class and a guided meditation on the beach … at the Santa Monica Pier on…

265#

Squat: 3×5 @ 265 lbs today. The last time I tested my 1RM, it was 275#. I can’t wait to re-test, but first, I’m angling to get that weight for a 3×5. Thanks CrossFitFootball/Power Athlete.
