Our normal bi-weekly Hike Club hike was canceled due to a variety of reasons, but I still managed to get outside and get a hike done. I met up with one of our Club’s members (even though her last day at work was on Friday, she’s still a member –…
Halfway through January, and I’m beginning to feel a bit more tired than usual which could probably be attributed to the fact that I have now worked out every day for eighteen straight days. I finished off my last pair of “old” shoes this week, and am now running full-time…
