		<title>Little Matters with a Big Guy</title>
		<description><![CDATA[A quick bite with my husband was a fun moment we shared the other day. We don&#8217;t eat out much, so when we had a rare opportunity to try some tasty vegan food at a Whole Foods market we decided to seize the moment. We grabbed a spot by a big window, shared our dishes [...]]]></description>

		<title>Little Matters in Running</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Last weekend I had one of those races that make running one of those amazing blessings worth recognizing. The weather was right, my legs felt strong, and my husband supported me by handing me water along the way. It was one of those days that spilled into the whole weekend with joy. Gratitude for running [...]]]></description>

		<title>Little Matters In A Park</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Sunday walks are special. My husband and I take our dogs out early and try to avoid our usual route. The pups enjoy the new smells an it&#8217;s nice to stroll and chat. This time we noticed some new signs in our park that noted a piece of history. The Trail of Tears traveled though [...]]]></description>

		<title>Happy Earth Day</title>
		<description><![CDATA[To honor the day, I went the extra mile to help out an eight legged cohort of earth. The little spider pictured was looking crusty as it hid behind my kettlebells this morning. I picked it up to toss it in the trash and it moved. Just a little so I figured it was muscle [...]]]></description>

		<title>Life&#8217;s Little Matters</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Just picked up &#8220;The Happiness Project&#8221; by Gretchen Rubin and I&#8217;m only on page two but already inspired. My husband and I have much appreciation for the little things in life like a warm, sunny day, a walk with our dogs, and dinner on the deck. I think we could give respect to such occasions [...]]]></description>

		<title>Running the Fight Against Childhood Obesity</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Runners have an opportunity to put an end to obesity. Maybe you are thinking, &#8220;Yes, I know. I run so I won&#8217;t be fat.&#8221;  There is more to be responsible for than our own health when we lace up our shoes (or slip into our minimal shoes). We have a chance to be an example [...]]]></description>

		<title>Pick Yourself Up</title>
		<description><![CDATA[We trip in life. Sometimes we fall all of the way to the ground. Might as well know how to pick yourself up once because the odds that you will need to do it again are pretty good. The better you get at it, the less of an issue it will be the next time.

		<title>Fitness vs. Common Cold</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Being sick is not fun and frustrating because there is a lot to get done in a single day! Athletes and fitness enthusiasts are often so dedicated to their workouts that when a cold infects us, we take it as a personal attack on the level of progress we have worked so hard to gain.

		<title>Benefits of Trying Something New</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Last time in the write up about Zumba for Runners there are several benefits listed that can be gained from taking a Zumba, or any group exercise, class. However, after more thinking on the subject, the task of trying something new has whole health benefits. Stepping outside of our comfortable boxes can get our blood pumping [...]]]></description>

		<title>Zumba for Runners</title>
		<description><![CDATA[&#160; &#160; &#160; It can be difficult to get a runner to stray from the sport they so loyally honor. When you do hear of a runner partaking in an alternative activity it&#8217;s often cycling, swimming, or trail running. Rarely, will a &#8220;real runner&#8221; admit to those fluffy group exercise classes. After all, those are for beginner [...]]]></description>
