by ~jenniferlynn on February 21, 2014

Inspired by Alex at Alex Tries it Out, I thought I could at least commit to one fun blog post a week, talking about five random things on this Friday! Today’s focus is on my recent addiction to Amazon Prime. Free two-day shipping on about a million things, free streaming movies, and more. If you don’t […]

Since I have yet to fall back into a normal blogging pattern, let’s play a bit of catch-up, shall we? Here’s some random bits of things that have been going on lately. Food I am getting very excited about digging deeper into Eat To Perform. If you are unfamiliar with it, at its most basic […]

Anxiety in my Blogging Space

I cannot believe that next week I will celebrate my two-year “blogiversary”! Two years in my little corner of the internet. When I started blogging, it was to capture my progress with New Rules of Lifting for Women, and since it has grown into something much more meaningful to me. I no longer use it […]

The only resolution you need to make this year

Happy New Year! I am more than excited to be coming back off a not-so-scheduled holiday hiatus, but I am itching to write again, but first wanted to check in to take a quick minute to talk about where I think a lot of people fail in their attempts to make resolutions. Did you write […]

Black Friday – Why I am donating instead of buying

by ~jenniferlynn on November 29, 2013

in Me

For the first year ever I am sitting out on Black Friday. And instead of loading up my shopping bags and emptying my wallet, I am loading up boxes of things to donate. I have always been a spender. A self-sufficient shopaholic, comfortably working two jobs for the bulk of my adult life to support […]

I started training for my “first and last and one and only” half marathon with no formal plan, running twice a week: Thursday Crossfit Endurance classes (various intervals, usually around 3 miles total distance), and a Saturday “long run” with increasing mileage as time went on. I only added additional weekly training runs about five […]

Progress is not in the pooch

in CrossFit, NROLFW, Running, Skinny Girl Problems

Maybe because I am not feeling as “aesthetically fit” as I was a month or two ago, I am becoming a bit more judgmental on how women are choosing to boast progress in their fitness. While I’m usually the last person to have haters, I posted a comment in a female-focused lifting group on Facebook […]

Five Things Friday.. End of September Edition

by ~jenniferlynn on September 27, 2013

in Me

Confession: Blogging is a lot of work. I LOVE writing when I have a good topic to talk about. And I have 10 draft posts of ideas that I just have not put any effort in completing (or starting). I have a September Challenge going on that I have been slacking on promoting and encouraging […]

Pedaling backwards..

by ~jenniferlynn on August 9, 2013

in Food, Skinny Girl Problems

Do as I say, not as I do. I thought about that last night as our substitute coach pushed us through a 1000m row and tortured us with a 21-15-9 WOD of wall-balls and sit-ups with DUs between each round; and a 400m run on either side of the WOD. All while eating a freshly […]

by ~jenniferlynn on June 30, 2013

in Me

I created this blog to write about my “health and fitness journey” as I feel I have typed about 100 times before. but there are other parts to my life, believe it or not, that I also feel are just as important. I wrote a post about Crossfit and Dating not too long ago, and […]
