Losing weight, one mile at a time
Okay, so, I suck. I haven't posted in awhile. And while I've been reading blogs, I haven't done a lot of commenting...so, in the blogosphere, that pretty much means I've fallen off the face of the Earth. Sorry, guys! But I'm back now, and wanted … [Continue reading]
Hey, guys! Thanks so much for all the well wishes and congratulations on Todd's marathon -- he really appreciates it! (He does stalk my blog constantly, I can assure you...he just doesn't actually comment much, haha). So since I posted my recap of … [Continue reading]
Hey guys! This weekend, Todd and I were in Philadelphia so he could take on his second 26.2: the Philadelphia Marathon! Since I'm still mentally recovering from the New York City Marathon, I chose to be a lazy bum and not run this race -- or even … [Continue reading]
Hi, everyone! Thank you all so much for the supportive comments on my New York City Marathon race recap (in case you missed it, you can find it right HERE.) You guys are the best! So even though the race is over, I'm still prancing around in my … [Continue reading]

Hey, guys! Todd and I ran the Hershey Half Marathon this past Sunday. We had an awesome time, and better yet, this weekend's 13.1 was TRULY my last "long run" for my New York City Marathon training...because I "only" have to run 8 this weekend! We … [Continue reading]
Hey, guys! Since apparently I've given up on posting full weekly workout recaps (you're not missing much, believe me), I wanted to at least drop in and share an update on the last long run of my New York City Marathon training! Today seemed like … [Continue reading]
Hey, guys! I wanted to drop in and share some updates on two fronts: my New York City Marathon training (obviously) and this weekend's other big news. I'm officially a black belt in Muay Thai kickboxing. :) For the past couple of months, if I … [Continue reading]
I'm Jen, thanks for checking out my blog! After a lifetime of struggling with my weight, I managed to lose 90 pounds in 2007... and, for the first time in my life, actually kept them off. In my efforts to lose "the final 40," I became a runner and martial artist (Taekwondo and Muay Thai). A NJ-based freelance journalist, when I'm not writing about the latest health and fitness trends, I'm actually living them! Visit my website at www.jenniferlnelson.com
