Mini-Vacation in Arizona

November 6, 2013
November 6, 2013

We just got back from a super fantastic trip to Tucson, AZ and we wanted to share it with the 2 of you who read our blog. We are pretty exhausted from jet-lag, so I thought it’d be fun to reminisce before we have to go back to the normal daily grind of life.

Happy Almost Halloween!! It seems that most of you are already in the full swing of of the Halloween / Fall season. Jilly and I certainly are.

So its official, the whole town is shut down and closed due to massive flooding. Last night we got about a dozen texts from the local authorities, updating on rain fall/ closures/ evacuations/ warnings to get to higher ground.

Part 4: You’re not hardcore unless you live hardcore – How to Eat like an Athlete

August 28, 2013
August 28, 2013

Many people ask us how we manage to do all the things that we do. It’s true, we pack a lot of stuff into 24 hours / 7 days a week. A big part of our active lifestyle stems from what and how we eat. And lets be honest, who doesn’t LOVE food?
