I’ll keep this brief. Maybe some of you have noticed a “something exciting is coming” badge on my sidebar over there and wondered what it meant. Maybe some of you have noticed that that same badge is now counting down to the Big Day! What big day you might ask?
The opening of my shop on OpenSky!
I am very excited about my OpenSky partnership. We all know I recommend products on a regular basis and the OpenSky partnership allows me to sell those products direct to you. No longer do you have to search out of your way to find a hard to find ingredient, you can buy it directly straight from my site.
I am not planning on being a pusher. I am not planning on product dropping in every post in order to get you to buy buy buy. But having an online shop benefits both of us. If I recommend something you want to purchase, isn’t it easier to be able to buy it right there and then? The coolest part of my OpenSky shop is that I get to pick what products are in it. I can seek out new and unique products and sell them in my shop. And I totally am open to suggests of things to put in my shop.
Check back in less than two weeks for my big launch! Ok, off to run again.

Recently VeloPress contacted me about checking out and doing a review of one of their new publications: The Athlete's Plate by Adam Kelinson
When they told me it was a "real food" cookbook for athletes by a chef/athlete, I was excited to check it out. Frankly, I was also jealous. The idea is very similar to what I want to do →

I can't say I am clever enough to come up with a way of eating ice cream for breakfast without actually eating ice cream for breakfast. But thankfully, I read a blog of someone who is. Of the few food bloggers I read, Heather of Heather Eats Almond Butter, consistently comes up with (really) healthy versions of less than healthy →

Our first CSA box from Eatwell Farms
I haven't felt routine in a while. We moved, we had guests, more guests, races to prepare for, nesting to be done, shelving to be built and hung. While bucking routine is nice to change things up, I do enjoy routine. I think one of the reasons I thrive as a runner is because →

When I was growing up, we believed in the Holy Trinity. No, I am not talking the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, even though we were raised Catholic. I am talking chicken, salad and orzo. We ate this growing up more than anything else. It is simple, tasty and I adored it. Especially when I was going through my blue →
