My Temporary Break-Up With Distance Running
I feel silly starting this by saying that writing this post has been difficult for me to do. I feel silly because in the scheme of the world me giving up running for a while really is a non-blip on the map. But for me personally, it is a tough blip, regardless of how small it […]

Back in April, I received a bottle of SierraSil Joint Support for me to try. Knowing that I am a super active person, and someone who has fibromyalgia they thought that it might be a good fit.
