It's already Monday night again! Time flies! We tried to do some catching up last week, but with me not feeling well, Dustin was easily talked out of some of the workouts too! Last Tuesday morning, we ran 7 miles down to Girvin and back down Kernan with a stop at our house in between for Gatorade/Water. We ran at an 8:40 pace and felt pretty good. Wednesday, we slacked off and Thursday, we went to Bob's spin class and then swam 1500 meters. Friday, we were off and Saturday, we went to Baldwin Trail and rode 35 miles at an average of 17.3 mph, taking us 2 hours and 1 minute! That's our longest ride yet, and it wasn't that bad, my butt is finally getting used to my new seat! It was pretty darn windy and a little cold, but not bad. We celebrated a little that night with Dave and Erin, and didn't feel too great the next morning, but I talked us into running out at the beach by Sneakers for a five mile run at a 9:30 pace. Then, tonight, we swam another 1200 meters at the Yates YMCA, and now we are settling down for dinner at 9:21 and the Australian Open will entertain us!

Evolve Life Coaching

  Aloha Friends! As summer ends and we transition into fall, it reminds me of how we, too, should always strive to keep growing and evolving. That's why I'm so excited to share some news with you all.   After 25 years as a physical therapist, and with my master's degree in rehabilitation counseling, I’ve decided to take my passion for helping people and start a new adventure in Life Coaching. Following my additional coach training, I’ll be pairing that with my unique background and expertise to help people navigate major life changes, build confidence, and create clear, actionable plans to achieve their personal and professional goals.

Maybe you want to find a better work-life balance, or need support in tackling a new challenge. Maybe you want to redefine yourself or rediscover that joy and enthusiasm f...

Pier Luck is already a Success!

I've been overly posting on social media about my book release and we had an amazing book launch party and it has me really invigorated to do more! I set my goal pretty high because I want to sell 600 copies of Pier Luck. I haven't told anyone that goal except Dustin, so having it now in writing is a little scary!  It has been a whirlwind of emotions in the last few weeks and I am so thankful for all the support. So far about 70 people have purchased my book. At first I was thinking I just wanted to write this for Dustin and the rest of our family. I didn't really want to "put myself out there" but now I'm glad I did. I'm getting great feedback from readers so far and some people finished it on the first night of reading it! I felt like it was good, but I wasn't sure anyone else would think it was good, so to get that feedback literally made me cry!  My Mom is a little biased, but she is claiming that I have her laughing and crying and reminiscing old ...
