New feature alert! As many of you know, if you follow the blog or me on twitter, fitness is a huge part of my life. I usually mention something fitness related in my monthly recaps and have also talked about my marathon journey last year. I decided to channel all that love into a monthly feature!

December is upon us! It’s the season for all the Christmas things – hot chocolate, fires, all things peppermint and of course, all the Christmas movies and books! I’m excited!

It was a pretty busy month and the end of the year tends to keep picking up too so I haven’t had as much time to blog! Once the new year hits, I […]
