Losing weight, one mile at a time
Hey guys, happy Friday! So I thought I'd end the week with something new and exciting: my first guest post! 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. Especially seeing as how you must be sick of hearing me talk about Dopey … [Read more...]
Okay, as promised, here come the recaps from my adventures in running the 2014 Dopey Challenge! I'll begin with the expo, since that's always a highlight of any race-cation for me. Since you know I loves me some merch... :) Todd and I arrived in Walt Disney World on a frigid Tuesday morning … [Read more...]
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...]
Okay, here it is! A recap of my first runDisney Wine and Dine Half Marathon experience! Was it an AMAZING time? Absolutely. But I did run into several issues...as is always the case with me, it seems. :) After running the 5K earlier that morning (recap here, in case you missed it!), my family … [Read more...]

At long last...I thought I'd continue my Disneyland Half Marathon Weekend recaps with a look at the 10K! Just in case you missed my previous recaps, you can find my look at the meet-up here, and the expo here. When runDisney announced that this would be the first-ever 10K at Disneyland (and, of … [Read more...]
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...]
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
