It is time for PINSPIRATION WEDNESDAY!  What is PINSPIRATION WEDNESDAY? In short, you write about a motivational quote or inspirational thing that you found on Pinterest (or anywhere else!). You are encouraged to look through other pinners and pass the love. More details here.    I was putting away my minions’ old books when I came across this one. And I knew it was meant for me! And you, and everyone. And so, even though this is technically not from Pinterest (it will be after…

On the heels of my linkup of Pinspiration Wednesday (which I will admit is having starting troubles getting off the ground … so be a dear and pop over there to add in your links), I found  Pin It Party hosted by Lindsay from The Lean Green Bean. So I’m joining that today and pushing some of my favorite pinnable posts from the past. And this also gives me pause to think and write content that can be pinned/shared by others, not just as…

It is the first PINSPIRATION WEDNESDAY!  What is PINSPIRATION WEDNESDAY? In short, you write about a motivational quote or inspirational thing that you found on Pinterest (or anywhere else!). You are encouraged to look through other pinners and pass the love. More details here.  Today’s Pinspiration is simple – BE PREPARED!  When you take on a goal or a challenge, when you are looking at something that is outside your comfort zone, be prepared. “Yeah, be prepared! We’ll be prepared! But…

Pinspiration Wednesday: LinkUp for Motivation

What is Pinspiration Wednesday?  (Formerly Pinspiration Friday) We’ve all wandered around in Pinterest land (which I refer to fondly as Facebook on crack!) and found some memorable gems to share. Some of them might inspire and talk to you a little more than the others. Pick a motivation quote or something that inspires you and write about it and join me for the linkUp.  Not a Pinterest person? No worries. Share any link that can motivate people over the hump day! …

Pinspiration Friday: Yoga Poses For Runners

What is Pinspiration Friday?  Every other Friday, I scout around that wonderful place Pinterest (which I refer to fondly as Facebook on crack!) for motivation and inspiration to share. I usually share motivational quotes or inspirational messages during Pinspiration Friday. But this week I’m sharing something practical – a simple cheat sheet for yoga stretches. As runners and triathletes, focus on training and nutrition but sometimes forget the active rest that our body needs to recover. And yoga/stretches helps with…

Pinspiration Friday: Be Positive

I had been feeling a little out of things these past few weeks. It was just an off feeling, a nagging feeling, nothing concrete that I can put into words. In fact, I do NOT want to voice it and put it into words. For there is power in words. The only times I was cheerful is when I’m with my minions, when I’m busy or when I’m talking/texting with friends. Part of it could be that I’ve been a temporary…

I came across this collage that someone else had pinned. It looked like it was part of an ad-campaign, of what I don’t know. The pin itself didn’t lead to anyplace on the internet, so I have no idea about the context of the images. But it got me thinking – In all the 3 years that I have been running, this is the first year that I have not signed up for a race! While it has given me the…
