I always thought that was just called 'free running'. I didn't know that it had an actual name!

My husband and I JUST BOUGHT the Pro Platinum VR treadmill last week and it is amazing. Having the 3% incline will be nice to mix up the workouts once we get used to it and having the VR courses to run will be great since they are modeled after real courses. Its a little more expensive than the Pro ...

Oh my goodness - you are truly an inspiration for being able to sprint up the curling club stairs not once but FIVE TIMES and then follow that up with a 5K run.

I guess I never thought about incorporating stairs into my workout schedule but what a great idea!

What about donating the magazines to a local womens shelter? I'm sure they could make use of them since the women there might not be able to afford to purchase the magazines themselves.

I grew up on white minute rice, I loved it. I am slowly starting to really like basmati rice and I have discovered some flavored Uncle Bens rice packages that are really good but I think they are also part of the evil white rice empire. :(

I LOVE sleeping in!!! I get up at 6:00 during the week for work but on the weekends if I don't set my alarm I have been known to sleep in until after 1:00 in the afternoon. I also don't have kids so I am truly enjoying my sleeping in while I can!!!
