As some of you already know, I'm not a huge fan of the sun, but I do love the time near sunset that photographers refer to as the "golden hour". It is great for photos and videos for sure, but I also like the feel of that time of day, and the lack of burning feeling on my face. In fact, I'm considering a whole series of sunset-related videos for both of these reasons. To see … [Read more...] about The Golden Hour, a Kettlebell Workout, and What I Ate Yesterday…

Active Rest Can Be a LOT of Fun!
Dear Northern Friends, Sorry to gloat about the good weather we are having this weekend, but it was so nice outside today that a friend and I decided to walk to a nearby park and set up our slacklines. The very cool thing was also realizing that the next time, we could pick up picnic items on the way and really turn it into a day long outdoor fun time. Can't complain … [Read more...] about Active Rest Can Be a LOT of Fun!

A Great Excuse to Drag a Bunch of Things Out to the Park – Workout and Skill Practice
On somewhat of a lark it seemed like a fun idea to drag a variety of favorite "toys" out to the park today. A friend met me for this challenge and I also wanted to borrow her slackline. Because mine is SO stretchy I'd been having to hang it so high between trees that when I was jumping or falling off of it with the usual frequency it was starting to stress out my achilles … [Read more...] about A Great Excuse to Drag a Bunch of Things Out to the Park – Workout and Skill Practice

October Primal Move Workshops, Travel, and a Neat New Exercise Tool
It's been an incredible month—and it isn't even over yet!

First of all, I wanted to make sure you had the link for RKC and PCC Team Leader, Angelo Gala's interview that went live today on Dragon Door. Angelo is a super neat dude.

Woah it’s been a while! Outsourcing, NYC, Al Kavadlo, Equinox, RKC Love and MORE!
Wow, I feel like a slacker after I see how long it's been since I've made a blog post. There are so many sitting in the queue half-finished right now that it's a bit embarrassing. Needless to say a lot is going on, and thanks to a well placed "inspired by the 4-Hour Work Week" article in an airline magazine, I've decided to experiment further with outsourcing. The … [Read more...] about Woah it’s been a while! Outsourcing, NYC, Al Kavadlo, Equinox, RKC Love and MORE!
Absence Makes the Heart Grow Fonder?
Feels like we've been a little out of touch with each other lately, but I promise to stay in town for a couple weeks at least. The schedule has been pretty wild this month, not that I'm complaining.
