Both Hills and Valleys – July 2014

By Chris Webb | Published: July 8, 2014

Critics Need Not Apply By Michelle Roberts If anyone asked me yesterday what I was planning to write about this month I couldn’t have told them. I still wasn’t sure.

Decide What to Be

By Moon Joggers | Published: April 1, 2014

Both Hills and Valleys: Decide What to Be by Michelle Roberts Every accomplishment starts with a decision to try. I’ve never been one to mull over a decision for long and don’t have much patience for people who do. I’m working on that, by the way. I meet customers all the time who want to […]

Mending Things

By Moon Joggers | Published: March 4, 2014

Mending Things by Michelle Roberts My grandfather lived 100 healthy years and I think of him often on my journey with Moon Joggers. My mother, brother, sister and I moved into his home when my parents divorced. I was just seven years old but felt the difference living under his roof from the start. Already […]

Same Path, Different Person

By Moon Joggers | Published: January 7, 2014

Both Hills and Valleys: Same Path, Different Person by Michelle Roberts Stepping out the door this morning for my longest distance yet I thought about all the time I’ve spent on the trails in my neighborhood. The same path along the lake that I pushed my daughter’s stroller for the first time. The same sidewalks […]

If at First You Don’t Succeed…

By Chris Webb | Published: December 3, 2013

If at First You Don’t Succeed… There aren’t many friends who know the story behind my high school nickname but I was reminded of it just last week.

Both Hills And Valleys: Live in the Present

By Chris Webb | Published: November 5, 2013

Live in the Present – Carpe Diem! Every time I step outside to run or walk, it happens. The responsibilities and obligations that I wear like so many layers of winter clothes begin to peel away. And I’m brought closer and closer to the present with every mile. “November 1st?! I can’t believe Thanksgiving is […]

Both Hills and Valleys: Hi, My Name Is…

By Moon Joggers | Published: October 1, 2013

Unexpected, Life changing Encounters There are people you meet in your lifetime who change your course in unexpected ways. They almost never introduce themselves with “because of me you’ll find your life’s work”, “I’ll introduce you to your future husband”, “together we’ll uncover your hidden talent” or “in twenty years I’ll support you through the […]
