by Eat. Play. Love. posted January 24, 2011 at 12:34am
After our game on Wednesday night where we fell to Fribourg (by quite a bit), we found out we would have off from basketball for four days. I decided I needed to get away from Nyon for a little while. So, in the spur of the moment I decided to take a leap...more

Drive versus desire
by Endurance Meg posted January 9, 2011 at 11:55am
Desire: To wish or long for; want.
There are many, many people out there with desires and dreams. In fact, I think you’ll be hard pressed to find someone who doesn’t have a dream of some kind or another. Some people share their dreams with others op...more

by My so-called FABULOUS life: Brianna Glenn posted January 4, 2011 at 10:09pm
I got some strange advice today. But the more I thought about it, the more I realized it made a whole lot of sense. Right now I'm working with a certain level of ability but if you asked me if I thought that ability was being maximized, I'd tell you abs...more

by Byline to Finish Line posted January 1, 2011 at 2:32pm
New Year’s Eve began in typical fashion — with an early morning run with Sue. We met at the gym to take a spin on the treadmill and chat on the last day of 2010. The topic of the changing year came up and Sue explained that she doesn’t make resoluti...more

Life: A reflection
by Byline to Finish Line posted December 20, 2010 at 2:25pm
All week, my workouts were bound to the treadmill. And frankly, it didn’t feel like it was going so well.

Snow day
by Byline to Finish Line posted December 4, 2010 at 12:54pm
Some days, it’s about listening to your body. Some days, it’s not about the plan, it’s about using your wisdom.
