I’m Quoted in the NY Times!

Today is an exciting day for me, which is why I’m posting on a non-Tuesday (the last time I did this was for the Naked Chef Challenge).

I was quoted in the New York Times!!!!!!!!!

I knew this might happen when the Catherine Saint Louis contacted me about my Mojo post, which was all about finding my exercise mojo. We chatted on the phone and then I played the waiting game.

Game over!

I am quoted on page 2 of Full-Service Gyms Feel a Bit Flabby.  You can also find my blogger friends Jess and Theodora quoted as well, which came as a surprise to me.

I did want to clarify that the two months free of Core Fusion mentioned in the article was from my Core Fusion Challenge last year. For those who are new to DSB, I got two free months of membership to exhale in exchange for taking Core Fusion 4-5 times a week and documenting my experiences and results here.

Clarification over. Back to excitement! Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!

    Congrats!!! And I should note, that Mojo post was a GREAT one, and I’ve since gone back to it multiple times when looking for motivation recently – so well-deserved.

    It’s so exciting! I read the article as soon as you tweeted it. I love the NYT, I grew up reading it and all other newspapers feel unfamiliar. so for me it’s a pretty big deal that one of my regular blog reads is quoted! Congratulations!

    So we can all say “we knew her before she was famous” right?

    Congratulations…especially because you were tracked down for an honest post you’d already written, and weren’t just asked to share a new opinion. For me, it makes it even ore special that you were recognized for what you were already feeling!
