Yes, lyrics from Grease and as everyone knows, words applicable to the superstorm and it's destructive path. I might live in California but my family and home are in the eye of the storm in central New Jersey. I checked in every few hours yesterday and for a while things were calm, then the wind …

Hi, my name is Jordan, and I am a 29 year-old yogi. At the start of this blog I was a half marathoner, and while I may not be running around anymore, I still have plenty of steps to take, so come join me :)
A Giant Win
It was hard to resist the spirit and energy of San Francisco as the Giants played in the World Series this past week. Last night the entire city erupted with cheers and shouts of joy as the Giant's swept the series. This is the second time since I've lived here that the Giants have won …
Sometimes you just have to laugh
at my cat... Happy Sunday!
Stroke, Stroke, Stroke
It's Saturday morning so I am off to the pool to grab a lane and get some good cardio in. I normally swim freestyle with breaststroke in between to give myself a break. Today I am going to focus on some breaststroke tips while in the water: Begin the pull by shrugging the shoulders up, …
That day of the week
It's Friday! The day where you still have to go to work but you are soothed by the fact that in a matter of hours you will be out of the office for two whole days. It's also a day where procrastination kicks in so if you need some help check out these Halloween themed …

Creative in the Kitchen
To prepare for this busy week I decided to make an easy dinner that would last me a few meals. I simply threw into the crock pot some lean ground turkey, veggies and this new find, Trader Joe's Curry Sauce. After a few hours my fragrant meal was complete and Monday's lunch was ready. After …
Successful Saturday
I don't know if it's my new swim cap or just that I am getting better at swimming, but yesterday I managed to swim for 45 minutes straight, the second time in 3 days. Unlike running, which came naturally, swimming has been a bit of a chore and I have to consciously make an effort to …
