Man Ran A Marathon Each Day - For A Year!
I’m a runner… and I try to get in at least 3 runs a week. It’s usually 2 shorter runs, and then a long run on Saturday or Sunday. The longest race I’ve done is a half marathon. But when I started running, I never saw myself doing more than a 5K. Then my mom asked if I wanted to do the Peachtree Road Race, which is a 10K. After a few years of running, I finally did my first half marathon, and since then, I’ve done 4 half marathons. But this man ran a marathon each DAY for a YEAR! How crazy is that?

Dogs and Santa
If you’ve been around me for any amount of time, you know how much I love dogs. A simple glance at my social media or in my office, there’s no denying it. I have three pups of my own… and they are my fur babies. I wouldn’t trade them for the world! Even when they drive me nuts! And now that it’s Christmas time, of course, my 3 will be spoiled.
The Things Kids Say

Delivery Driver's Reaction To Snacks
It’s the holiday season. And yes, we are all busy. But when it comes to our delivery drivers… they are even busier this time of year!

Ginny & Georgia Season 2 Trailer - Watch Here
Get ready! Ginny & Georgia season 2 is on the way! Netflix just released the official trailer yesterday. I really enjoyed the first season, although it’s been a while.

And maybe even for Austin, Ginny’s little brother.

The Grinch TikTok Trend
I probably shouldn’t laugh… but the Grinch TikTok Trend is absolutely hilarious. Although I do have to say… those poor kids. There have been many kids who have been afraid of the Grinch… and this trend is bound to make it worse. But, leave it to parents to prank their kids and post the video on social media. Honestly, I’m not mad at them for it… but if I was one of those kids, I’d probably never get over it! So let’s get to the Grinch TikTok trend. What is it?

Exercising Outside In The Winter
If you tend to sweat, cotton can be a bad option when temperatures drop. Because of it’s highly absorbent nature, cotton will stay wet, instead of drying out. According to Magnante, water conducts heat away from the body up to 25 times faster than air. This leads you to lose body heat rapidly in the cold… and increases your risk of hyperthermia. Polyester and wool are moisture-wicking. This keeps your warmer, and absorbs less water.

This year, the City of Louisville created an all-day thing! They started with the Lighting Up The ‘Ville festival at Helen Clark Park.
