It’s snowing out my window now, which makes this moment from last week seem even further away.

I was in New Orleans, walking back from a sweaty WOD at CrossFit NOLA on Magazine St. (A great box to drop into, btw!) The sun was shining, the air was balmy, and these Mardi Gras beads tinkled like wind chimes.

Sigh.

It’s cold and grey here in NYC, but I’ll do my best to focus on how lucky I am to be able to take my little show on the road whenever the opportunity presents itself. (Have laptop. Will travel.) I worked from a swanky hotel lobby by day and wandered through the Garden District and French Quarter by night. I love New Orleans. It’s a city that somehow manages to be super down-to-earth and mystical at the same time.

While I was there, this piece with OxygenMag.com went live!

I was super lucky to get to test the Marc Pro electric muscle stimulation device and write about it. Like a lot of runners and CrossFitters, I’ve done some pretty weird stuff in the name of recovery (ice baths and pickle juice recovery  drinks are among said things), so I was stoked to get electrified!

I quickly learned that that’s not quite the way the Marc Pro works.  If you deal with soreness, swelling or chronic pain, I encourage you to read my review and leave a comment!

Happy Monday! Laissez les bon temps roulez!
