Today, on Redhead Mom I am sharing a sponsored guest post about fitness equipment you can use in your college dorm room. Lack of time, limited space, and a range of other circumstances may contribute to the inability of quality and regular workouts if you are a college student. Besides, if you want to be a diligent […]...

For the last few years I’ve slowly transitioned into a runner. Do I love to run? No. Well, not when I’m running, but I like the feeling of accomplishment when I’m done. Typically, I try to run a few times a week usually completing 3-mile runs. But running tends to get boring. That’s why I […]...

Laguna Lake Park is a nice 375-acre park in San Luis just south of Cerro San Luis Mountain. This park used to have a beautiful 25-acre lake that has now shrunken to look more like a pond, but the ducks are still there and like to be fed. There is also a very nice playground […]...

I’m still trying to catch up on my hiking posts from the past few months. Finding the time, as I’m sure we all can attest to, seems harder and harder as the kids get older with all of their extracurricular activities…but I’ll save that for future posts because I digress and need to stay focused […]...

What a way to end 2014! On Christmas day, Russel and I decided to get out and drive…just drive…find our own little adventure. Being kid-free this year it was easy for us to be on the go with no plans or expectations. For those of you who know me, I am always up for a […]...

Happy New Year! Have you made any New Year’s resolutions or goals for 2015? Perhaps getting into shape is one of the goals? I don’t know about you, but I find it pretty difficult to run or walk at a fast pace with regular headphones in my ears. They just seem to keep falling out. […]...

Last month my friend Melanie, our kids, and I participated in a local 5K…A Zombie Run! Zombie Invasion SLO was such a fun experience; I love themed runs! This 5K was a fundraiser for the Central Coast Autism Spectrum Center – a local charity. Zombies are horribly dangerous to all human life and zombie infections […]...

We’ve all been in the position of trying to stuff a lot of things to do into a short amount of time. Whether it’s running errands, going to appointments, or having to pick up the kids of a half-day. Arleena and I were pressed on time, and decided to stay local and find some kind […]...

A couple weeks back I joined about 9,000 other participants in this year’s Run or Dye Color Run in San Luis Obispo, CA. We had so much fun! My girlfriends and I created a group called “Parental Colors,” and we even brought a few of our kids. I don’t know who had more fun, […]...

Oops! We did it again! It’s only been 7 weeks since Arleena and I last visited Murray Hill (otherwise known as the Unnamed Hill)/ Reservoir Canyon Trail. I cannot believe we chose to do the other side – and on a sweltering 90-degree sunny day no less! The last time we ventured up this […]...

This week Arleena and I revisited Cerro San Luis (or San Luis Mountain). Back in week 12, Arleena and I made a wrong turn on this trail that only got us to the M on this mountain which about ¾ of the way up to the top. Needless to say we were a bit bummed […]...

After being sick for a week, I was ready to “get back on horse” as they say and kick butt hiking. I was on my own this week and didn’t want to hit an all-new spot, so I chose the Sycamore Crest Trail. This trail is the backside trail to one of our first […]...

Sometimes I find it difficult to get motivated. Week 14 was one of those weeks. Arleena and I needed to switch up our scheduled hiking day when we heard the rain forecasted for the week. I never thought of myself as a girl who likes her schedules, but when it comes to my workouts […]...
