Run Like a Mother, Eat Like a Rainbow

NYTimes dubbed it: "A bible for active parents."

Since finding the book Run Like a Mother (and blog! and tweets! and RLAM fb page!), I have been completely entertained and inspired and able to connect with a whole new community of runner-mamas.

This book is so utterly relatable, it.is.sick! Even as a newbie runner, there were countless numbers of "O-M-G! That is EXACTLY how I feel" uttered from my mouth. As a mom, spouse, runner, wannabe writer and overall multi-tasking-life balancer, this book inspired me, me made me laugh out loud causing my fellow commuter train riders to stop and stare. (At which point I promptly held up the book long enough for them to commit the title to memory.)

Well, Sarah Bowen Shea and Dimity McDowell have honored me by profiling me as one of their Follow This Mother mothers.

If you are a RLAM'er….Welcome! Thank you for reading! I hope you’ll stay and join in the conversation.

And to give you an idea of what goes on around here....I blog about everything from food I have never seen before, to running, to cooking mishaps, to recipes I love, to my cute kids, to race recaps, to weighty issues, and even struggles with getting out of debt! Oh, and be sure to check back every Friday to see what’s in my drawers.
