*Update: Congrats to our giveaway winners: Janet, who pledged to eat healthier and be a better person and Carol, who pledged to exercise 5x a week (you go, girl!) As I reach the halfway point in my pregnancy, I have really started thinking about the new little life we’re bringing into the world. I have [...]
With the holiday season fast approaching, it never fails, the moment you walk into the grocery store, you are faced with special deals on sweets and items for holiday baking. I don’t know about you but it’s temptation central for me. Even if I had no intention of baking those six different Christmas cookies, I’m [...]
Woah, I’m a few days late with this post, but better late than never, right? So the second week of Dad On the Run was a bit of a hectic week. I jogged only 12.02 miles (according to the treadmill) but (again) fell off the wagon in regards to eating good stuff again. I ate [...]

MBT, the anti-shoe, is hosting its first-ever Chicago Scavenger Hunt. The MBT Scavenger Hunt is a great opportunity to discover new, fun facts about Chicago, while playing a game and getting a bit of [...]
I never have, nor will I ever rub my stomach, close my eyes, salivate and fantasize about a seafood dinner. Just the thought makes me shudder. To prove it, I spent my honeymoon in Hawaii, surrounded by oodles of the freshest seafood around, and I turned my nose up at all of it. Now, I’m [...]
I’m not sure what the weather is like where you live, but here in Chicago, it seems that things are finally looking up (at least in a meteorological sense) and I love it. Back in mid-January (that’s less than 6 months ago), I made a decision that I was going to lose a significant amount [...]
