Wellness Wednesday – Hikes of 2021, #24-29
Lots of state parks this time around! I’ve been doing a bit less over this period as I’m trying to protect my foot, still waiting for my MRI and to find out if it’s broken or has soft tissue damage … Continue reading
Wellness Wednesday – 23 Years
Before I start this post, I want to talk a bit about the “new” WordPress. Yesterday, WP converted me over without permission, and I lost the ability to choose the classic editor. I despise the new editor. It’s so buggy. … Continue reading
Wellness Wednesday – Enchanted Rock
Last Thursday, a few members of my hiking group leadership team and I went out to Enchanted Rock State Park. It was Jennine’s birthday, and she wanted to conquer this rock for her special day. When she mentioned her plan, … Continue reading
Wellness Wednesday – Hikes of 2021, #17-23
Time for another round of hike-logs! 17. Both times that I’ve been out to this park now, it’s been solid fog! Today, we had rain in addition to fog, and tons of mud. Only one trail was open, and it … Continue reading

It’s been one of those weeks where so many health/fitness things happened, none of them worth their own post, and I don’t really have much else to say, so here’s a bunch of mini-things. Endocrinologist: I finally had my specialist … Continue reading

Wellness Wednesday – Enjoyment vs Necessity
They say the key to sustainability with any fitness plan is enjoyment. And for years, I’ve stuck with this motto. I’m fortunate enough to enjoy many types of exercise, and after forcing myself to do HIIT (I despise HIIT) for … Continue reading
Wellness Wednesday – Hiking Bingo
Hey look! I updated my Wellness Wednesday button for the first time in nearly six years, haha! ***** Back in early 2020, I put together a Running Bingo for myself, based on official running events. (Of course, I had no … Continue reading
Wellness Wednesday – Starting From Scratch
Everything I know about my health is wrong. This is both an exciting and a dismaying place to be. It’s a place I’ve been in before, and I’ll admit, it’s frustrating to be back here. To try to erase years … Continue reading
Wellness Wednesday – Hikes of 2021, #1-8
Toward the end of 2020, I started cataloguing the group hikes I’d taken over the year. Because of covid, I was only able to participate in group hikes for 5.5 months of the year, but still managed far more than … Continue reading
