God bless my mother-in-law. The other day, I did an interview with Dustin from Fit Marriage for a new series he's doing about active couples. To prepare, I asked my wife, Erin, what advice she might give in the realm of fitness for couples. You know, a tip or two we've used to keep from…

Post by Christine Frazier. I love agave nectar. Its sweetness isn't bitter like stevia, overwhelming like honey, or immediately identifiable like maple syrup. Its thin consistency makes it easier to use and measure than my other fav, brown rice syrup. But mainly, I feel better using just a touch of agave nectar in my baked…

Dr. Lieberman is the Harvard evolutionary biologist whose theories are challenging the traditional idea that humans aren't born runners, and…

In case you're one of the six remaining runners on the planet who have yet to read Born to Run, allow me to explain. The Tarahumara are "the running people" on which most of the book is based, a Mexican tribe of superathletes who run 50 or 100 miles at a time for pure enjoyment,…

I was not born to run. At least, if I was, I have yet to discover my inborn love for running. And if any of my recent success can be attributed to natural talent, then it sure took a lot of work to coax said talent out. As evidence to support the case that I…
