Tilda Tuesday: Another Flashback to the Puppy Days.

November 11, 2014 By Jessie Benson 5 Comments

I know that there are some of you that only stop by for Tilda Tuesdays. You aren't coming here for running advice; instead you are stopping by for a weekly dose of vizsla cuteness! Since we are traveling, I didn't have a lot of time to write a post. In fact, my creativity is pretty low, and I couldn't think of anything fun to share about vizslas or dogs this week. Instead, I thought I'd leave Continue Reading

Tilda Tuesday: Guest Post- Training Your Vizsla to Hunt by Katie at Prairie Ponderings

October 28, 2014 By Jessie Benson 4 Comments

Happy Tilda Tuesday! I have a guest post for you today from a fellow blogger. Katie blogs at Prairie Ponderings. We connected over our shared love of running and vizslas! I tell you, vizsla owners flock to each other- we are passionate about our dogs!  Katie is here today to share with you how she trained her vizsla Harvey to hunt. We don't hunt with Matilda, but I still found this post really Continue Reading

Tilda Tuesday: Matilda the Vizsla’s Best (or Worst) Running Experiences

October 21, 2014 By Jessie Benson 8 Comments

Last week, I shared my “Best (or Worst) of My Racing Experiences” (<--have you linked up yet? Please do!)  Matilda my vizsla pup felt a little left out, as she has only done one official race (the Fast & Furry 8k). But even so, she wanted to share some of her own Best (or Worst) Running Experiences. Hottest Run: Tilda has run in temperatures in the 90's, but always nice and easy Continue Reading

Tilda Tuesday: Training Your Dog to be a Great Running Partner.

October 7, 2014 By Jessie Benson 4 Comments

Last week, I went to see Dr. Crabtree at Uptown Natural Care Center for some A.R.T. (active release technique) and Graston (read more about those two things here) for some various aches and pains I have been having. While at my appointment, we got to talking about his new golden retriever puppy. He asked me how we trained Matilda to run with us. I couldn't remember much advice to share with him Continue Reading

Tilda Tuesday: Camping With Our Vizsla…

September 30, 2014 By Jessie Benson 2 Comments

Tilda has been very pleased at how popular Tilda Tuesdays have been. She is beyond flattered that you enjoy vizslas/dogs so much!. Today, I'd like to share with you a little about our first experience camping in a tent with Matilda...let's just say it was less than a successful endeavor. A failed fit.... We booked a campsite at Afton State Park. We chose this park because its one of the few Continue Reading

Tilda Tuesdays: Run MSP Hoodies…for Dogs!

September 23, 2014 By Jessie Benson 4 Comments

Last fall, I posted about my favorite tees, the Run MSP tees from Gear Running Store. (Check out that post HERE). I love this tee- so cute and comfy. One of my personal favorites! I happened to swing by Gear Running Store on my way home from work a few weeks ago for some more Hammer Gels and I saw that they are now carrying Run MSP hoodies...for DOGS!!! Well, of course I bought one. Yes! Continue Reading

Happy Tuesday! Tuesday is supposed to be the day of the week when we are the most productive in the office.  So...good job being so efficient friends! Now it's time for a little bit of cute dog distraction to break up all this productivity. It's time for Tilda Tuesday! Today's post is about one of Tilda's favorite dog parks, the Minnehaha Dog Park. We don't go to this dog park as frequently Continue Reading

Thank you for stopping by!

This is my blog about finding The Right "Fit." I'm an avid runner, marathon enthusiast, and fitness experimentalist who uses my little space of the internet to share my passion for and experiences with running and fitness (...and a little about fashion.)

I write mostly about running and my quest to run a marathon in every state and every continent. But you'll also find some information about different fitness classes in the Twin Cities and more.
