Hi, my name is Joe. Chances are, we've already hung out today. Why? Because you tell yourself you can't get through the day without me. When someone dares suggest that you stop drinking me every day, you get a little irked. You certainly don't consider the possibility of actually quitting me; in fact, you're just [...]

Quitting coffee attracts some attention!
Week 1 coffee report

This past Tuesday marked one week on my new, randomized plan to quit coffee. In case you missed that post, the plan-in-a-nutshell is this: I supply my wife Erin with the coffee beans I will use for the week, starting with 60% regular, 40% decaf, and increasing [...]
Catching Up
Don't worry, you're not supposed to be at work
Recently, I haven't posted anything on Saturdays. Blog traffic is always a little lighter on the weekends, and it just seems I have more good stuff to write about during the week. But the idea came to me (on a run, of course) that perhaps Saturdays would [...]
Nothing Inspires Like A Hangover
I'm not being facetious. Hear me out!
I had a fantasy football draft on Friday night, although the team I put together is nobody's fantasy. But it was fun as always, and many delightful beverages with frost-brewed liners that tell you when they're cold were consumed by all.
As a result, I woke up on Saturday feeling [...]
Pancakes for Dinner!
Almost Friday, veg-heads! I have to tell you, your comments on yesterday's post absolutely made my day. Thanks for all the encouragement. Just over six weeks left until the big day!
In case yesterday was running-overload for some of you, today's all about food! Erin and I started the day with mango-jalapeno [...]
If It Rhymes, It Must Be True!
When Erin and I got married, we had all these wooden painted signs decorating our reception. "All because two people fell in love," for example, and a bunch of others like it. Interestingly, only one made its way back to our home, as a keepsake to remind us of the special day:
Hmm. With this in [...]
Anniversaries, and a Movie You Must See
Three-Month Veggie-versary!
Yesterday marked the anniversary of two momentous No Meat Athlete events, if there is such a thing. First and foremost, it was the three-month anniversary of my new diet! Actually, three months ago is when I turned pescetarian; it was still another month or so before I stopped eating fish. So big ups to [...]
Chobani Greek Yogurt Giveaway
Sounds like most of the challengers are sticking with it! I was a little concerned that not many comments were coming in, thinking you had all bailed on me. Then I remembered that I didn't post yesterday until almost five P.M., so it was my fault for throwing off everyone's routine. Anyway, if you're wavering, [...]
Tomato Pesto and a Near Dough-Disaster
Today marks two weeks since I've had any caffeinated coffee! This 30-Day Challenge has definitely made me realize one thing–30 days is a long time. When I first committed to this, I was worried that it wouldn't really be enough time to break the habit. But let me tell you, these first two weeks have [...]
Acquired Tastes
One Week Without Coffee
It's Wednesday, and that means it's been a full week since I last drank (caffeinated) coffee! Today I had some decaf in the french press, but I'm realizing that decaf coffee doesn't do it for me. I think it tastes the same as regular, but drinking it isn't fun for me. [...]
Hi there, I'm Matt. I went vegetarian last March, and almost immediately I became a much stronger runner. I recently qualified for the Boston Marathon; now it's on to my first 50-miler!
