A bit belated but Matilda's race recap from the Fast & Furry 8k is here! (Read her previous recaps HERE, HERE, and HERE.) Matilda's Recap: You haven’t heard from me in a while but I’m back for my one big race of the season, excluding all the times I race across intersections at stop lights; (why? because I win every time.)

Fitting Remarks: A Reflection on 2015.
As 2015 comes to its close, I decided to take some time and reflect on the year. I started 2015 on a three month work assignment to Singapore. I remember someone commenting then that it would be my "longest year ever" since I entered 2015 thirteen hours "earlier" than Minneapolis did, so I will get thirteen more hours this year, ha! I wouldn't say it ended up being a 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.

Sunday morning was a windy 6 Continue Reading
Tilda Tuesday: Another Flashback to the Puppy Days.
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: Gear for Running in the Dark…for Dogs!
A few weeks ago, I shared a post with tips and gear for running in the dark. Those tips are even more important now that we have crossed into Daylight Savings Time. There will be a lot of dark running in our near future! One of my safety tips for running in the dark is actually running with my dog. Now, if you've met Matilda, you know that she is not very intimidating. If fact, she's kind of a Continue Reading
