Stronger Faster Healthier + Discount!!
No, literally: You can get Stronger, Faster, and Healthier with the goodies from this company. They’re perhaps most famous for their fish oil (@SFHfishoil is, after all, their company twitter handle), but that’s not why I quite literally became obsessed with Stronger Faster Healthier. No, it’s their grass-fed whey protein that first attracted me, and the…

But this places me in a newly-minted position suggest some good reads. Below is an eclectic bunch, from newbies to classics, beach reads…
Aspen: Cathedral Lake Hike
It’s an “easy” day hike, starting near Ashcroft and only about 2.8 miles to Cathedral Lake. You climb almost 2,000 vertical feet, though, so it’s not for flatlanders or those unadjusted to altitude. I haven’t had a hard time adjusting to much about the altitude, but this hike kicked my ass! It’s a National Forest,…
