Fall in Yellowstone

By Catherine Kunst Posted on September 28, 2012 Posted in Fitness, Travel

I took a quick trip to Yellowstone National Park in Wyoming this past weekend. I recommend taking more time – a week at least, two would be better. I plotted a leisurely route mostly avoiding interstate, and generally not covering …

Bridal Veil Falls

By Catherine Kunst Posted on September 8, 2012 Posted in Fitness, Travel

Coming up for air

By Catherine Kunst Posted on January 25, 2008 Posted in Fitness

This week had far too many days that started with 7 AM meetings and ended with me arriving home at about 10 PM. Even knowing that this is what my week would look like, I started Turbulence Training this week. …

Diabulimia

By Catherine Kunst Posted on November 16, 2007 Posted in Fitness

I saw a headline today "Diabulimics shun insulin to get thin." I am horrified. Unregulated diabetes (chronically high blood sugar) will cause blindness, kidney failure, heart disease and nerve damage. It is the major cause of limb amputations. Untreated diabetes …

Back on Track

By Catherine Kunst Posted on October 25, 2007 Posted in Fitness
