Win It! Lyssa is a Special Occasion
At the BlogHer conference in San Diego, one of my favorite booths was the “________ is a Special Occasion” by Hallmark. They provided bright purple tees with a spot for you to fill in what your special moment is. Allison and I did “serious” ones first: I said every day is a Special Occasion, she said…
Always work really hard
Remember the 85-year-old lady? In today’s episode of Old Lady Wisdom, she called down to me from the top track of the gym: “Young lady! What are you training for?” “Nothing really.” “Well you’re always working really hard. Good for you.” I smiled, thanked her, and went on with my workout. I thought about it…

Wendler 531
I’m doing it! Just finished week 1. Pretty excited about it. Still yoga-ing a lot too. I think they work well together. Hit it hard, stretch it hard? Also funny: how this article: i-heart-powerlifting-and-im-not-bulky-or-masculine went totally viral in a day. CrossFitting women all love powerlifting. I love powerlifting too. What was it about this particular article or…
Aspen: Wine and Heels
A few weeks ago, I was lucky enough to attend Aspen’s latest ladies’ night craze: Wine in Heels.

Cameron Hughes Obsession + $25 coupon!
As someone who once wrote email marketing newsletters for a living, I like to think I am immune to sales pitches. I clearly am not. When Cameron Hughes told me that his new Lot 228 Muscato d’Asti was the ultimate summer wine, something resonated with me. I promptly ordered 3 bottles. And then drank two…
Butterfly
When I first moved to Aspen, I sort of stopped doing pullups. It wasn’t convenient to do them at my gym, in workouts, and I hadn’t yet discovered the most amazing pullup bar in all of Colorado. However, thanks to that discovery I am back on the pullup wagon, and made it my goal to…
