Yes, Happy New Year!! Today (in Israel) is the first day of the new Jewish year. It is a time to reflect on the past year and prepare for the year ahead, contemplating actions, dreams and feelings. It's amazing the amount of things that happen during a year and last year was a pretty full …

Long time no blog
I am SO sorry for not being here. I am gearing up for some big changes in my life and have neglected one of my favorite friends, my blog. I have been selfish, busy and lazy and have failed to share my ideas and adventures, which has left me feeling a bit empty. I love curling up …
The Grass is Always Greener…well maybe not, but it sure looks like it
It's hard not to walk down the street and look at a person running by and think, gee, they are so lucky they can run, and compete in races and jog with friends. Or see someone with a flat stomach and assume that they get to eat whatever they want and still look good in …

Starting the year off right
I hope everyone enjoyed their New Year's festivities! I celebrated with a night of drinks and dancing 🙂 It was a perfect way to spend the evening, moving on the dance floor with both my good hip and my no-longer-broken one. The first day of 2013 was spent resting my tired legs, enjoying the fresh …

A Story
If you see me walking down the street you would never know that almost 6 months ago I had major surgery to repair my broken hip. I have no visible limp, you cannot see any signs of surgery and I have a smile on my face. Swimming on the other hand leaves me very exposed, …
Sore
I have come a long way from my first weeks in the pool. I no longer have to stop between every 50 yards, I have much stronger form and I can swim comfortably for 45 minutes. Of course I still wake up sore the next day depending on which stroke I focused on and it …
WIAW – On a Totally Full Tuesday
Most days at work are incredibly busy, but this week has been especially full of things to do. In order to be properly fueled for the day I have been turning to eggs for breakfast, complete with chicken sausage. This meal kept me full all morning, which was great because I was running around …
I made it!
I went in to the office every day this week! After spending the morning on the couch, sleeping a bit more, relaxing and getting comfortable, I would head to work around noon and work till end of day (5:30pm). I was nervous to go back on Monday after 3 weeks of absence, but it felt …
Milestones
This time last week I was waking up in the hospital after a 4 and a half hour surgery to put a metal plate in my hip to fix a broken hip socket. Needless to say this is not how I expected to end my 10 mile run that Saturday morning, but life happens and …
