19 Great Walking Tunes

My physiotherapist has told me that she doesn’t see me running again for at least a year. Yup, a whole year. While this is suckful, it’s also a bit of a wakeup call. It’s the reason that “physio” made my list of S.M.A.R.T. goals, even after I turned them into H.A.P.P.Y. goals. And while I [...]
This is not a S.M.A.R.T. goal

Remember the post about SMART Goals? Of course you do. You read all my posts religiously. You probably even take notes. *snort* Yes, I snort at my own jokes. Someone has to. But don’t worry, I won’t even make you follow the link to see what the hell I’m talking about. I heard about SMART [...]
