Quite Possibly My Slowest 19 Miles Ever.
Well, that was ugly! I'm two weeks behind in my weekly recaps of workouts (I plan to catch up tomorrow) but this was a big week in training for Tokyo with over 60 miles of running. Next week, I will cut back pretty drastically before getting up over 60 again. So I went into today's long run on tired legs with some tough workouts and lots of miles. Additionally, I went out for dinner and Continue Reading
Fits on the Road: The Phi Phi Islands
"Travel is the only thing you can buy that makes you richer." I have really enjoyed my travels so far in SE Asia (in the past and on this trip.) It's such a fascinating and beautiful place. If you missed my previous post about my short Christmas trip to Phuket (pronounced POO-KET), you can catch up here. I promised you pictures from the boat tour I took to the Phi Phi Islands (pronounced Continue Reading

But I'm definitely excited to see my family soon! For New Continue Reading

The Right Fits Most Loved Posts of 2014
As 2014 comes to a close, I thought I should look back at the 10 most popular posts at the Right Fits of 2014. In October, I made a big change to the blog design and unfortunately, I lost a lot of readers. I'm hoping some of you find your way back, but even if you don't, I'll just keep on writing...because I really like doing it. It's my online journal. It's my creative outlet. And this year Continue Reading
Fits on the Road: Phuket, Thailand
Phuket, Thailand was pretty amazing. Beautiful beaches, cheap and amazing food, friendly people, fascinating culture...I only got a quick taste of it, but I definitely recommend it. Before I left Singapore to fly to Phuket, I was second guessing whether I should have spent the money to go there on my own. It seemed like kind of a waste. But now that I am back I can say it was totally worth it. Continue Reading
