Personal Training
Sure, the pink Oh! shoes are cute and comfortable, but has athletic shoe technology really married Italian fashion design, as they claim? I decided to put them to the test, with a little help from my running partner’s baby. I say yes. Yes, yes, yes, I can run in pink high heels! Official business: This post is [...]
Every Mom to Iron Mom’s Coach Robin and I are partnering up with the fabulous people at Iron Girl to give away a free race entry to a Sprint Triathlon! A Sprint is much less scary than a full triathlon, just so you know. We’ll be doing a half mile swim, a 22 mile bike [...]
When Sarah over at IronGirl called me to ask if I’d be interested in a sponsorship to their Portland, OR Sprint Triathlon in June, I laughed. My running coach, Robin, over at Every Mom to Iron Mom has been telling me it’s time for me to do a Sprint, but I keep whining about not [...]
Coach Robin taught me how to run intervals at the track yesterday. The idea is to push yourself a bit, but learn to run at a consistent pace over and over. So we ran a lap, then rested, then ran again, and tried to keep the pace the same. This is tricky to do when [...]
I’m running the Eugene Half Marathon in May. So I say. At the moment. So I’d better get in shape, eh? My friend Robin, over at the IronMom blog is helping me train for it. We made a video today of the first “core” training session. Robin’s all about the full body workout stuff. She [...]
Let’s talk about runner’s knees! And legs! And core, core, core! And let’s eat fruit, drink tea and meet each other in real life, while we’re at it. Christina Caldwell, co-owner of The Multisport Advantage Training Studio in Eugene is hosting this month’s Chubby Mommy Running Club Social. Join us on Tuesday, November 23rd, 2010 [...]
I went to Robin’s kick boxing class again tonight. I taped up my bloody knuckles, put on some gloves, and hit the bag with some left hooks, right hooks, jabs and pivot kicks. And I learned some super duper fancy footwork, to boot. Okay, I used a Band Aid and they were just little scabs [...]
Get Fit. Burn fat. Get lean. Learn Self-Defense. These are the things Robin at Every Mom to Iron Mom promised me from my first Kickboxing class last night. I was expecting the fitness benefits, I was not expecting how much I’d enjoy the Self-Defense part. It feels good to land a punch on a real bag. [...]
My new trainer, IronMom Robin, told me to meet her at the pool the other day. The outside pool. So I whined because it was about 58 degrees, which seems too cold for hanging out at the pool. But then she chirped “oh, you’ll be warm in the water, don’t worry!” So of course I [...]
My new trainer Robin is an IronMom. Like, for real. She’s tough, and I wouldn’t want to meet her in a dark alley. But if I had to be in a dark alley, I’d want to have her with me, to beat up the bad guys. I’m scared to death of dark alleys, though, so [...]
