December work tips for a smooth transition into the new year

12/07/2011 by Deanna +

There's two things inevitable about December in the workplace: 1. Too many holiday treats, and 2. A *little* bit of downtime. Unless you take a lot of vacation days this month and aren't there, the office gets a bit less hectic come the weeks of Christmas and New Years. While I can't do anything about the treats (except tell you to run afterward using one of my playlists), I can give a few tips

Fall running and safety

10/03/2011 by Deanna +

It's amazing how quickly you "lose it" after a half marathon. In May, I banged out my 13.1 miles in PR time. Last week, I ran the Pittsburgh Great Race 10K (6.2 miles), and was over it by mile 4. My, how a trip to Italy made me out of shape. It was totally worth it, though. :) But slowly but surely, I am getting back into shape. Last summer after I ran my first half marathon, I was so sick of
