Eighteen years ago my daughter Grace was born. Less than 14 months later, I became a full-time work-from-home dad and have loved every minute of it since, raising two beautiful daughters working full-time from home. It wasn’t until January 8th, 2007 that I became a Team Beachbody Coach and that […]
Free Samples and a Surprise on November 1st! When I think of free samples, I think of food tasting. You may think that I live in the boonies in New Mexico (I don’t) or lead a sheltered life (just a #Dadlife), but that’s what I think of. There are lots […]
Focus on Your Fitness Balloon Fiesta has come and gone here in Albuquerque and we are more than three weeks into fall. Most of us came off of summer with pretty good levels of fitness and hopefully being pretty healthy. But now we are inside more, cold and flu season has […]
“Finish” Former New York Giants head coach Tom Coughlin and I share a love of inspirational stories, quotes and videos I learned yesterday. I was searching on Prime for a running video to watch and I saw, “Running for Jim“, the inspirational story of Coach Jim Tracy, his team and […]
Are You Ready to Do The Work? I must admit that I was skeptical at first about 6 Weeks of The Work, but I have spent a good amount of time getting to know Amoila Cesar and he is the real deal. Even if he didn’t have a compelling story […]
Simple Truths One of my favorite websites for motivational and inspirational videos, is Simple Truths. I turned to it just yesterday to find a video that I love entitled, “What It Takes to Be Number One” with the words and voice of legendary football coach Vince Lombardi. I wanted to post […]
Rising Above the Clouds On Sunday, I was blessed to be able to run again on the Pino Trail here in Albuquerque on a day that would seem less than favorable for an enjoyable run. Light rain, 62 degrees (after it has been so warm, even in the morning) and cloudy. But […]
I first posted “Keep Pressing On and Keep Believing” on February 24th, 2012. I recently heard John Maxwell share the story and I wanted to share it again with you now. A famous mountain climbing resort in the Swiss Alps caters to businesses that encourage their employees to hike up […]
If you have ever visited my personal social media profiles on Facebook, Twitter or Instagram, you may wonder why I never post about Team Beachbody or coaching or anything related to business. That’s because there, I share my faith and I make it a point to share everything health […]
I Committed to Run 1,000 Miles in 2018 Just an FYI – I don’t drink, ever. You may wonder then why I commented in a post in Mark Zuckerberg’s “A Year of Running” group on New Year’s Day that I was going to try to run 1,000 miles in 2018. […]
Happy Thanksgiving! I hope and pray that you are having a joy filled day and that you are finding ways to give thanks. I am thankful to be a member with you of the Team Beachbody community. Last night at Calvary Albuquerque, we had our annual Thanksgiving banner […]
We used to say that our tired legs were because of lactic acid build up. For runners, we’d say that there was a 48 hour rule meaning that we were more tired 48 hours after a hard workout than we are the next day. Now we know that we are […]
After 4 days of record rainfall from Wednesday to Saturday this week, why I chose the Embudito Trail for my run this morning, I don’t know. It is steep, rocky, the footing is poor – and that’s under normal conditions. But one reason that I chose it is because it […]
NPR has a list of some of the ways to donate to Hurricane Harvey relief. For more ways to help, click here. “FEMA Administrator Brock Long estimated Monday that 30,000 people may need shelter, and some 450,000 may qualify for federal flood victim assistance. As Harvey continues to dump rain […]
I wanted to take some time out of my day to say thank you for making a difference although you may wonder what I am referring to. I am thanking you for visiting a health and fitness blog and for taking the steps that you are taking – whether they […]
I’m not rebellious and I am definitely not anti-government. I am proud to be one of the people who has done the things that will make our planet great again and at the same time will make our nation great again. But not by implementing a travel ban that bans […]
I’ve been alive for more than 66 year years. My parents went through World War 1, the Great Depression and World War 2 in England. They came to this country after World War 2 because Europe was devastated by the ravages of war. Because of the devastation, the United States […]
It is Memorial Day and Grace and Carly and I are having a quiet day remembering the fallen. In fact, Grace went to the movies and a sleepover at her friends house, so now it is just Carly and me. We all know the significance of today and the sacrifices […]
A week ago last night, the water pump on my fourteen year old Toyota 4Runner failed. It is Day 8 but I am thankful that I made it home and parked in the driveway, which was a huge blessing. Since 2003, the only things that the 4Runner has needed are […]
