• How to get a body like a model... or two

  The other night I had to interview two 21-year-old twin models. Yeah, it's a tough job. And by tough, I mean telling Jess I needed the car to go out to Mi-key's to meet them.

• MGD 64 is not a video game system

  I totally thought the light beer and reduced-calorie fad ended in 1998. No one told that to Miller Brewing, who also thinks it's an awesome idea to merge with Coors. When I first heard the term MGD 64, I thought it was a video game system from the... Posted Mar 29 2008, 08:32 PM by Tim Cigelske With | With no comments Filed under: Diet

• Clean colon, better runner?

  Can a colon cleanse make you a better runner ? I've never tried any such measures, but during high school track I ate so much flax seed that my intestines were like a slip 'n slide. Gross! Now, according to someone who's actually tried a colon... Posted Feb 13 2008, 02:38 PM by Tim Cigelske With | With 1 comment(s) Filed under: Diet

• A gift of fish

  Last year my friend Amy gave me a roll of parchment paper for my birthday (along with other kitchen items to be used when making pies).

• I love to cook!

  Tonight my late class was canceled on account of the storm, and I decided to have a cooking night to take advantage of the time off. It is easier for me to cook a lot of dishes at one time and then just eat off of them for the rest of the week. While...

• Fiberlicious

  Today I spent over an hour reading food labels at Trader Joe's . I'm actually pretty adept at label scanning, but today I was looking for the magic combination of 4 grams of fiber per serving.

  I'm eating more cottage cheese and bananas as I'm writing this. I always announce when I'm going to eat in the office, just to clear up any confusion. Is Tim going to eat? Yes, Tim is going to eat.

• Another note on nutrition

  My latest Runner's World newsletter focused on "eating like a runner" . My favorite item on the list: "You should love the foods you eat." Eating healthy doesn't mean being boring.

• Watermelon!

  Kelly and I met for an hour with a nutritionist yesterday, and I'll write up a full report later this week. Of all health-related topics, food has one the biggest potentials to overwhelm.
