I remember being younger, when Tommy Hilfiger was all the rage, and loudly declaring to my mother that I would never pay to wear a product’s name plastered across my body. Then I got into triathlon.

Goal Setting and Cocktails
First, my apologies for the lapse in posts! I was overwhelmed by the response for my last post about poop and wasn't exactly sure how to top that...
