Hello, Striders!

The Double Crunch Challenge | Day 3
Good morning, Striders!
I tossed a leaf of kale into my green smoothie this morning (I have it growing on my patio) to mix things up from the collards yesterday. (I’m doing something separate with green smoothies I’ll tell you about soon. In the meantime, eat your veggies!)
50 more crunches to go and I’m done for [...]
The Double Crunch Challenge | Day 1
Day 1 of the Double Crunch Primal Stride Challenge has me sitting straight up in my chair with spinach in my stomach. I’ve developed a nice little routine: Every time I get up for a glass of water or tea I do 50 crunches. It’s 10am, I’ve been up for 5.5hrs, and I’ve met my [...]

Good Morning, Striders!
How do you typically respond to a stressful situation?
Do you scream? Are you the silent type?
I was once proud of my ability to “keep my cool” no matter what. I could internalize any stress thrown at me and honestly thought I’d be okay.
I wasn’t okay.
I ended up wound so tight that every time [...]

Good Morning Striders!
Seeing this photo by LoneWolf of what his morning exercise looks like makes me feel like a bit of a baby for complaining about the cold here! (click on the image to view the rest of the Flickr challenge pool)

I read that sentence [...]
Primal Stride Challenge | Five At Five | Day Two
Good morning, Striders!
First, an apology. I’ve been camping in the woods with my family. This is good in that I’ve been able to relive the frozen toes and blinding campfire smoke of my childhood. This has been unfortunate in that I haven’t been able to be around for you guys. That might be a good [...]
