As a wife and mother of three, I seek to improve my family's health through truly nutritious eating. Not the kind of nutrition that merely keeps us alive but that which provides natural wellness and vitality. Rather than follow any one idea of what healthy food means, I continue to learn by reading the writings of others but, above all, I trust my instincts and many 'old-fashioned' ways of doing things.

For that reason, this is definitely not a blog that seeks to reinvent the wheel in terms of cooking or nutrition. The groundwork has been laid for us all. We just need to get back to basics and learn how to eat.

I hope you enjoy reading and look forward to your comments!

So distance running training has left the rest of my body undertrained for just about everything. Boo! It's definitely time to switch it up. I want to be able to do a bunch of pushups. Not modified ones. Real, honest pushups. Not there's anything wrong with 'girl' pushups but I gotta feed my latent need to outwork most guys. 'Cause, you know, I can do that AND birth babies... :)

So, here I am making public a goal that I'm not entirely sure I can attain. After all, I'm a girl. Our natural strength isn't in the upper body. Therein, lies the delicious challenge. My success (or failure) is here for your entertainment...

Goal: 50 pushups without rest

Timeframe: No clue...inifinity?? Just kidding. Hopefully, 2-3 months.
