End of an Era
Sunday with Herb
Â
Today is a bittersweet day for a couple of reasons.

I can't even tell you how long I've hosted t...

How to Squeeze All the Juice Out of Retirement

What are you training for?
Sunday with Herb
Now is usually the time I would be laying out my goal race for next year and other races I may want to do either as training or just fun.

Over the years, having a couple of beers with friends has been my main source of alcohol. I normally don't drink much wine or hard liquor.Â

Time To Get Out Of Your Comfort Zone
Sunday with Herb
Â
I like daily routines and familiar places. I have found that the older I've gotten, the more set in my ways I've become. I'm retired and I'm in my comfort zone.Â

Do you know where you stand?
Sunday with Herb
Do you know where you stand?
What I mean by that is:
you may be a little over weight,
not as strong as you like,

The 8/8/8 rule
Sunday with Herb
Hey there, have you heard of the 8/8/8 rule?
That's:
8 hours for sleep
8 hours for life
8 hours for work
That's a fair formula for an 24 hour day.
It's not a a work/life balance - it's a work/life/sleep balance.
The key here is maintaining that 8 hours of sleep.
For us ol...

Hire a coach as you would a financial planner
Sunday with Herb
Most runners who hire a coach are looking for help with that upcoming race or event. And that's ok...
