I’m keeping it simple at the end of the year. You’re busy. I’m busy. So instead of a full-on post, I went through and found my most popular blog post. I’m sharing them again in case you missed them (or are bored and want to re-read them). 2018 Goals Coyotes 5K Wrap-up WTF Trail Race…

Gluten-Free Vegas Baby!
Gluten-free Vegas is a celiac’s mecca. For various reasons, I’ve been to Vegas several times since I was diagnosed with celiac disease. Not surprisingly, Vegas has a lot to offer in the gluten-free world. There’s something for everyone. I always feel heard and taken care of when ordering gluten-free. I’ve never felt my needs were…
Strip at Night: Run Vegas
Running the Las Vegas strip at night is one of those “must do” races solely for the experience. Like races such as run the runway or race track, you are running for the uniqueness and bucket list checkmark, not the PR with Rock n Roll Vegas. Although the Strip is very flat so you may…
Running: My Story So Far
My Running Journey I started running off and on in my 20s, around 2003 or 2004. I didn’t really take it seriously, it was just a way to get cardio in. A lot of the time I was in a gym on a treadmill. I did 3-5 miles 2-3 times a week. I had always…
Gluten-Free Travel: Get your eat on
Gluten-free travel is a challenge but not difficult. Gluten-free travel is a necessary evil for those of us with celiac disease. If we want to leave our house, our city, our state we have to trust we can find gluten-free foods in the big wide world. If you haven’t noticed, I love to travel and…

Confession
165.8. My current weight. I am putting it out there for all to see. I am not where I’d like to be. I gained 25 pounds since my celiac diagnosis. First, I was in denial. It was only 10 pounds. I’ll lose it easily. But it just kept coming. Then came anger. How the fuck…
Fourth of July
The Fourth of July is almost here. I am a little sad that I won’t be in Wisconsin this year and running the Firecracker Four Mile. I’ve run it the last two years with my dad. And Phoenix will never have such a thing because it is just too damn hot. So, what am I…
Celiac Awareness & Expo
May is Celiac Awareness Month. I have been sharing information on my facebook page but have yet to write anything and decided it was time. And stick around because I have some fun stuff regarding the upcoming gluten free expo in Glendale, AZ. Things I want people to realize about celiac disease: It’s a disease,…
Proyo and Getting Strong with a 12 week Challenge
12 weeks to buff and I’m doing it with ProYo. I wasn’t able to complete my marathon this month (I’ll post a separate post about this later) and decided to participate in a strength training challenge instead. I purchased Jessie’s Girls Home Edition before Christmas and had started it as cross training for my marathon….
