No brakes? No breaks 🥴 Looking back at last blog post all that comes to mind is “Oh, how the mighty has fallen!” I went from a buzz saw of energy and focus, to racking up one sweat filled strength training session last week. Yes, I have learned the art of celebrating small wins, but woooooo this week was a […]
Happy New Year 🎉 You had the opportunity to read my 23 Growth Points in 2023 For many, 2024 began with fireworks, champagne and Junkanoo (I definitely enjoyed #1 and #2 at midnight). Despite my grogginess, I managed to get moving with a late morning run and create content for my personal and business IB and Facebook pages. Warm temps […]
My final blog post in 2023 is a labor of love. For the first time ever, I sat and crafted this message over a period of time. What to say, how to draft, where to draft – all God inspired and God directed. As I prepare to place 2023 in my box of memories, I am reminded of these twenty-three […]
Full disclosure: I approach New Year’s Resolutions the way The Grinch approached Christmas. Don’t get me wrong. I am not goals adverse or even lists adverse. However, I do believe that if you are passionate about your life goals, the only right time to take action is right now. I gave this speech content at a recent Toastmasters club meeting […]
This weekend, the number One reigned supreme in my personal life as I celebrated a relationship milestone. That milestone proved to be the basis of reflection for today’s blog post. When we think of the number One, we think about solitude. Being quiet or lonely. We may even equate sadness with this number. From a running or fitness perspective, how […]
It has been over a year since I picked up my iPad to blog. I usually blog on Sunday afternoons. Something happened. For the second time in two days, fellow Toastmasters raved how much they loved my website and how I inspired them. I immediately felt like an imposter. I considered letting my domain go at the end of December. […]
We are officially in the summer season. Many of us went into the start of the year on fire. We set those fitness goals and were relentless in checking the boxes. I know I was relentless. I started the year off with a half marathon PR and clocking 5K times never seen before. My momentum all came crashing down when […]
In the Bahamas, we have a saying – it’s not a runners-specific saying, but we use it often as a deciding factor on whether or not we should support a fun run walk or race: “We like tings.” Runners love swag. The more swag, the easier it is to convince us to support your event. I’m guilty of it too. […]
Tuesday March 29th 2022. I remember waking up feeling so energized. I told myself this would be the day I would nail my 5K PR. The weather was unusually cool and I felt like I was flying through the streets of Nassau. That day I ran a personal best 23:18 5K time. Three hours later I received the worst phone […]
After two years of being under the radar, Covid 19 caught up with me two weeks into 2022. Since I tested positive for Covid last week, I have been getting tons of questions ranging from how I felt at the onset to how do I gauge returning back to the road. So let’s dive right in 😏 What prompted me […]
