Chicken is a standard protein for my dinner table. But…truth…sometimes I get really tired of the ways I typically cook it. Why kebabs have not been one of my go-to’s is beyond me! Kebabs are quick (even with all the chopping…which thankfully doesn’t require neatness!), versatile, healthful & delish. I’m putting these on regular rotation from now
A few posts ago I published the weight programs (upper & lower body) that I did that week. In the last couple of days, I repeated those two programs again…but with progressions. I got to thinking that it might be interesting to look at how I progressed those programs & to examine some of the

It’s an interesting mind game to pinpoint the things (or people) that impressed you enough to push your thought process into
Banana muffins recipes are a dime-a-dozen & over the years I’ve tried quite a few. My biggest frustration: You can hardly taste the bananas! Enter this recipe…it’s packed with a full 2 cups of bananas! What better way to get a potassium hit AND use up a bunch of those overripe bananas in your freezer!!
This time of year is one of my fav ‘s for eating…and that’s because it’s pesto season! What more can you ask for in food – garlic, oil, cheese, nuts & basil. There ain’t nothing better. And it goes with everything from chicken to eggs to tortillas to pasta to shrimp to potatoes to veggies
A client asked me an interesting question the other day. We were discussing strategies to successfully Negative Split in a race situation. Real quick…a “Negative Split” is where you get faster as you go. In other words, you do the 2nd half of the event faster than the 1st half. It’s a time-honored method to
“During a coffee date with Michelle, she asked me if I would like to write an article for this newsletter. At first, I thought, ‘What am I supposed to write about? I have not done a triathlon in 7 years!’ Sept. 2014 changed my life. I was on a training ride, 3 weeks from competing
