Now that the Princess Half Marathon is just a few weeks away, I'm gearing up for the Glass Slipper Challenge by participating in a Princess-themed virtual blog hop -- and thought I'd share some details about the ChEAR Squad with you guys! As all runners know, a race isn't a race without … [Read more...]

I decided to take a little break from blogging today and let my other favorite writer share a post with you, and with all of the the Dopey, Princess, and Dumbo excitement, I thought it was … [Read more...]
Thanks so much, everyone, for your kind and supportive comments on my marathon recap! So, I've had some time to reflect on the Dopey Challenge, and wanted to go ahead and share some final thoughts with you guys.

Hey, guys! Happy New Year! Hope you all enjoyed the holiday season -- I know I did! :) I know I've taken a bit of an unintentional hiatus here with Christmas and whatnot, but I wanted to come back to the blogging world and say a proper good-bye to 2013 with a full recap on these final weeks of … [Read more...]
So, big announcement here, for anyone who doesn't already know. I am now, officially, in training for a marathon. A freakin' marathon.

Okay, so my post on the expo may not be quite as warm and fuzzy as my previous recap of the Disneyland Half Marathon Weekend Meet-Up. It was...an experience, to say the least. Immediately following the meet-up, I headed straight for the expo. Okay, wait, that’s a lie…first I grabbed a … [Read more...]
Hi, guys! So I know it has been quiet here for a few days, but I have a good reason, promise…as many of you know, I was in California to take on the inaugural Dumbo Double Dare at Disneyland, so I hope you’ll forgive me for not having a whole lot of time to update while I was away! However, … [Read more...]
Hey, everyone! Sorry for being a bit MIA for the past couple of days...lots and lots of fun activities this weekend!

In honor of my first trip to Disneyland and the start of Dumbo Double Dare weekend being just ONE WEEK AWAY, and my excitement over making it in to the meet-up, I thought I'd write a fun little Disney-inspired post.

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
