Two Christmas' ago, I walked into TJ Maxx in Florida and picked up a pair of running shoes and some workout clothes. At the time, I was just planning to go for a run or two while we were on vacation since Mackenzie's sleeping schedule was all kinds of crazy from the...
As you have probably heard by now, I recently became a running junkie. It all started rather innocently, when my dear husband suggested we run the Berlin Marathon in 2013. Together. Which was kinda funny at the time because I don't run. Ever. In fact, I thought I...
Yesterday, the last day of 2012, was the 37th Berliner Silvesterlauf aka "Der Pfannkuchenlauf“. This New Year's Eve run was hosted by SCC Events (as was the cross country run) and it was an interesting one (to say the least.) This is what the 9.9km track looked like:...
Yesterday was the last day of the year 2012 and it ended with a wonderful 10k race in the outskirts of Berlin on the infamous Teufelsberg. This mountain is an oddity in the otherwise flat as a pancake city of Berlin. In fact, it is the cities highest mountain and has...
I'm off to Paris this morning for just over 2 days for the LeWeb conference and, as luck would have it, I'm supposed to be running 6.5km on one of those days. You may have been wondering, but our running plans have been going quite well. I have to get back on the ball...

This past Sunday was the marathon in Berlin, and since Stefan had a few friends running in it, we went out to cheer them on. One in particular, Timo, is a really nice guy and an amazing runner who definitely falls into the professional category. But to be honest, his...
I'm so happy to finally have NOH back online. It has been a tumultuous couple of weeks and I'm guessing that I have about 20 new gray hairs after this past week! So today I wanted to celebrate being back online by sharing about another awesome sponsor for the Made in...
A good place to start is always at the beginning. Because I haven't done any real workout out in about a year, I'll be using the BodyRock.tv Beginner Workout series to get things going. This series is easy enough for a beginner of any level and can also be done by...
I finally hooked the Wii back up to the TV on Friday night and pulled out my Wii Fit balance board. I don't know why I was dreading it. Although the Wii was trying to hold me back and didn't want to take in the disc (apparently dirt and dog fur is NOT good for it). I...
