Sometimes I'm still totally floored that anyone reads this thing besides my mom. And further? That people leave comments and send emails and tweet reply and text and Insta-message me. I appreciate the hell out of it, especially when that time could've been spent doing...anything else. So to you fine people, thanks a freakload. So, …
Lindsay, how ya doing?
Every time someone asks me "how are ya," I say what everyone else says whether it's true or not, "Pretty good. How about you?" I could've stepped in dog doody on the way to work and I would've still said "good." Knee jerk, ya know? But I dug into it the other day. I feel …
One Sunday Evening Thought
Sometimes I wish I could re-meet people. Do you? That I could turn back time and start fresh. That I could not only erase a painful past but implement the lessons I learned from it? We'd meet again and I'd know but they wouldn't. What a gift that would be. I can think of two people …
A Big Exciting First Day
We did it! I rocked day one at my new (freelance) job. It’s not full time, which means I didn’t go back today, but I’m excited about it. It felt like a big day. It was a big day. And I was worried that it wouldn’t be a big day. See, I haven’t flexed these …
I’m Giving Colorado At Least One Year
A couple nights ago, for the first time in almost five months, I missed Tampa. And I really felt it. Big, fat snowflakes fell outside my window which meant the next morning I'd be inside on the trainer. Again. And then it seemed like my Instagram feed was filled with all things Tampa; one post …
Snow Day! + My Cheap Moving Hack
They’re back! The snowflakes! Yesterday at work I watched thick white chunks fall all day long. Slowly, steadily, magically it accumulated on roofs, sidewalks, windshields, and parking meters. Some braved the slick roads and stopped in for coffee,and that was nice. But I bet most who had the day off work for President’s Day were …
I Hope I Keep Not Hating Mondays and other thoughts
I basically just said I like Mondays. Does that make you want to punch me right in my face? Gary Vee did a whole speech/rant on why you shouldn't ever waste a single second being miserable in your job/life. But that dude is scary and intimidating...so roll with me on this one, k? ^^^ Stop it right …

Maybe The Answer Is To Keep Not Quitting Over and Over
I've recovered. My last story (one week ago; gulp) was a 500-word whine-fest about my first attempt at a century. I love pain and I especially love suffering a little, but that kind and that caliber pushed me to my absolute limit. Part of it made me feel like I shouldn't be out there doing …

Out of my League: First Century Attempt in Colorado
The thing is, I could've finished. I had 100 miles in my legs. I’ve been at altitude since October, only going down for air once when I flew home to Florida for Christmas. The thing is, the miles were in there. And I wanted 100 miles so badly. I told myself and everyone else I was …

Push Picks x FEB 3 18
A day late...SHOCKER. Let's move on. Question for everyone: Was January really that long...? This annoying meme has surfaced on every social media platform that exists... and I must disagree. The only two truly painful stretches of time is waiting for Christmas to come back around and also for food to cook. Agonizing. But January? …
