Although I am often “physically” alone when I work out, I never truly work out alone because I often connect with Tanja, the #BCBabes1, occasionally other friends in my Streakers365 group, and with my family. It’s nice to know someone is always just “on the other side of the screen”....

With no current race on the horizon, I struggle to get back to a routine. It’s easy to not plan the week and just “see what I feel like” in the morning. You can do that for a while, but it’s not sustainable (at least not for me). So, while...
