Meet the Second Sole Striders of the Eastside, Lyndhurst, run with the group, find out how to eat to perform your best, and then replenish with some great food afterward! I'll be giving a quick overview of what every runner should know about what to eat every day, as well as before, during, and especially after a long run!

The Dr Oz Show!

Today my mom and I met my brother Michael (living in Philadelphia) in NYC to see the Doctor Oz Show! It was great! What an experience! Tuesdays when he was on Oprah were my favorite episodes! Doctor Oz and I share common ideas about what is most important and effective in leading a healthy lifestyle! It was great to see him in person -- though I didn't get to meet him, he seemed to be just as friendly and personable as he seems on TV! He is such a blessing! It's so cool to have someone so famous and well-liked spreading the word about, in the words of the Oprah Show, "living our best lives"! You can check to see what channel and time Doctor Oz is playing in your area! I was so excited for the show to begin this fall, and now that it's begun I highly recommend it for anyone who wants to have fun becoming healthier!
