I was a Junk Food Vegan

December 26, 2019

Today is 6th Anniversary of being vegan! When I first decided to transition from vegetarian to vegan in December 2013, one of the motivators was my health. I cooked a lot at home, meal prepped, and ate mostly whole foods with the occasional processed faux meat alternative. I also went gluten free around the same … More I was a Junk Food Vegan

LA Marathon Weekend Part 2

May 24, 2016

Although I went to bed exhilarated by the Olympic Trials and the WeRunSocial meet up, I woke up on race day with mixed feelings.  While I was excited to be running my first full marathon, there was a battle going on inside my head.  Although I was confident that I could cover the distance and … More LA Marathon Weekend Part 2

LA Marathon Weekend Part 1

May 24, 2016

I never entertained the thought of finishing a marathon a few years ago. But on Valentine’s Day, I did just that.  Here is part 1 of a long overdue race recap. I was pretty excited to drive up to the Expo on Saturday morning. Not only was I going to pick up my bib, but I … More LA Marathon Weekend Part 1

I’ve Lost My Mojo

January 24, 2016

So, a couple of months ago I thought it would be a good idea to sign up for the LA Marathon.  I figured that it’s about time that I run a full marathon since I’ve got a few half marathons under my belt now.  Plus, who knows how long it will be before my body … More I’ve Lost My Mojo

2015: Year in Review

January 1, 2016

Oh man… this is the third draft of my 2015 Year in Review post. This has been a tough post to write. While there were some nice highs, there were some tough lows to deal with. My Health:   2015 was a much healthier year for me than 2014.  I started Field Control Therapy in … More 2015: Year in Review

Running with the GRVL Runners

June 23, 2015

I was invited by a couple of UnitedLA runners to run with the GRVL Runners of Long Beach last Wednesday night. I figured, it’s summer… why not? So I made the drive from the Fullerton area.             This was a fun 3 mile run through downtown Long Beach with a very supportive … More Running with the GRVL Runners

FCT Treatment Round 4

June 23, 2015

So, last week I completed round four of Field Control Therapy. All-in-all, it went well–the detox symptoms weren’t as terrible as they were during the previous rounds. I’m sure that it helped that I spent the majority of Sunday and Monday outdoors away from EMFs. My last two posts highlighted my time and miles at … More FCT Treatment Round 4

Trail Mix Deluxe Part 2: Go Take a Hike!

June 20, 2015

Here’s part two of of my day on the trails last weekend. I was doing my FCT treatment so I had to be outdoors all day, avoiding EMFs as much as possible. On Sunday, after running and having brunch with UnitedLA I had a couple of options: I could relax, sit under a tree, and … More Trail Mix Deluxe Part 2: Go Take a Hike!

Trail Mix Deluxe Part 1: The Hills Are Alive

June 17, 2015

Sunday was another day out on the trails. Only this time, I’d be on foot instead of two wheels. I was scheduled to do my fourth round of FCT treatment on Sunday so I needed to be outdoors, try to avoid EMFs, and take it easy. Well, two out of the three is not bad, right? I … More Trail Mix Deluxe Part 1: The Hills Are Alive

#Active4Asher: Trail Mix – MTB

June 14, 2015

Father’s Day came early this year. Typically, I do long runs on Saturday but when my buddy Julian is able to meet up I’m down for anything active. He’s one of my best friends from college and was my best man at my wedding. Julian said that he wanted to give the trails at the … More #Active4Asher: Trail Mix – MTB
