Running: Tue, 7 Aug 2018 21:15:50: It's my longest run so far since my running renaissance
It's my longest run so far since my running renaissance. But I cheated because, by the time I hit the road, it was a quarter after nine at night It's late, cool, and I have water.
Running: Thu, 4 Aug 2018 18:40:21
Well, this was only .70 miles longer than regular but it was much more scenic. The dorky hat I'm wearing is a heart rate sensor. So worth being a dork.
Running: Thu, 2 Aug 2018 21:22:21: got my groove back
out halfway but got my groove back. So glad the rain stopped and so happy I could maintain motivated even after 7,000 meters plus going like crazy on the erg.
Running: Wed, 1 Aug 2018 19:17:01: got er done
Slower and shorter but got er done! This awesome, super big and super orange chest rig performed beautifully.
Influencer marketing is like a wedding
In many ways, influencer marketing is just like a wedding: the wedding is being thrown for the bride; however, the reception is thrown for the guests.
Influencer marketing should be fun
Pattern your influencer marketing campaigns on comic cons and you can’t go wrong: people dress up in cosplay, who knows what happens at night, and there’s shameless branding, selling, promoting, marketing, and influencing everywhere you look. It’s built in!
Running: Sun, 29 Jul 2018 20:02:07: 3-miles slow jogging
3-miles slow jogging, .32 miles spirited walking. I was creaky today. Need to stretch and use my rollers tonight.
Running: Sat, 28 Jul 2018 21:32:39: Third run of the rest of my life!
Third run of the rest of my life! Night run. My body was more physically tired tonight so I guess this even slower run is sort of a recovery run? My form was more like marching band leader than even slow Jogging. You know what that looks like right? In marching band? Huzzah! Activity: Run
An hour on the road every day
So, I made the following pledge: Neither rain, nor sleet, nor gloom of night stays this runner from spending an hour shuffling around outside every single day*
Running: Fri, 27 Jul 2018 20:11:23: Really smooth and cool and easy
Really smooth and cool and easy. Walked hills and took rights and lefts at as many hills as I could but it was a fun time!
My first run since I was sick in January 2017!
I took the first run of the rest of my life after being sick back in January 2017 this morning. Call my form Japanese Slow Jogging or Zombie Shuffle--the Cliff Young Ultra Shuffle?--but this is where it starts.
TUNG Brush influencer marketing case study from Kristen Matthews
It’s always very important to get your client on your side, on your team. If you don’t have their buy-in, they might not be willing to commit so much time, money, and resources to something that could fail–especially in a world with lots and lots of affiliate marketing and advertising products.
My all time favorite quote about creative genius is from Six Degrees of Separation
"I remembered asking my kids' second-grade teacher: 'Why are all your students geniuses? Look at the first grade - blotches of green and black. The third grade - camouflage. But your grade, the second grade, Matisses, every one. You've made my child a Matisse. Let me study with you. Let me into the second grade. What is your secret?' 'I don't have any secret. I just know when to take their drawings away from them.'"

What influencers want and expect from influencer marketing
When it comes to getting reviews and coverage from online influencers, you’ll only get exactly the amount of value that you put in, be it in the form of merchandise, compensation, respect, access, exclusivity, fandom, discounts, or even sweet residual profits from affiliate codes and profit-sharing.
Atlas Shape Fitness Tracker Review
The Atlas Shape, by Austin-based Atlas Wearables, is a legit fitness tracker, including steps, sleep, personal-training, training programs--but for me, it's only a half-solution to me.
What clients want and expect from influencer marketing
Clients want sales. In terms of KPIs (Key Performance Indicators), sales are king. People want to make money—not after seven-touches or down the road—but now!

Atlas Wristband2 review: fitness tracker for kettlebell swings
I bought my Atlas Wristband2 exclusively to keep track of my daily kettlebell swings. And it does an amazing job of tracking my swings as well as other kettlebell, TRX, and floor workouts. This is my review.
Influencer marketing can drive traffic to your new website
I am talking about the real-time effect of a good outreach campaign that comes flooding in an extreme traffic volume spike immediately after and in the 72-hours after each influencer outreach.
Steal this online reputation management process
Online reputation management (ORM) is the practice of crafting strategies that shape or influence the public perception of an organization, individual or other entity on the Internet. It helps drive public opinion about a business and its products and services.
Easy baked bone-in chicken thighs recipe
I am always looking for quick, easy, delicious ways to eat chicken. I used to be a breast white meat kind of guy (that's just how I grew up) but I have fallen for dark meat.
Consider your own fat mass in your kettlebell workouts
I am around 300 pounds (136kg) and my fat mass is around 33%-40%. 300lbs*.33=99lbs (45kg) and 300lbs*.40=120lbs (54.5kg). It's really important for all of us plus-sized (ahem, obese), big and tall, boys and girls to consider how much extra weight we have on our bones when we take up kettlebell training.
Christening my new pair of Nike Pegasus running shoes
I know I should be running instead of writing about running but I was reinstalling run-tracking apps onto my Samsung Galaxy S8 Active and wanted to start with a fresh pair of running shoes since you can plug your runners into a couple of the apps and then when you track a run the apps will also track the mileage that you put onto your shoes.
How heavy your kettlebell should be (heavier than you think)
According to Supreme Girya Master Girevik Pavel Tsatsouline, if you're a man, you really should be swinging at least a 16kg kettlebell and ordering up a 24kg kettlebell and a 32kg kettlebell from Kettlebells USA for not later but for sooner--for soon!
Maybe you should be swinging a much heavier kettlebell
The kettlebells I have been swinging every day have been too light from the beginning. I have been cycling between a 12kg, a 16kg, and a 20kg competition kettlebell but really should have been putting the work in and struggled with my 24kg kettlebell instead. Maybe you're swinging a kettlebell that's too light for you.
Traditional porcupine meatballs recipe prepared in a pressure cooker
My mum's pressure cooked porcupine meatballs were the ultimate special treat comfort food in my home growing up. They have such a unique smell and mouthfeel.
Sometimes it takes 18-months to motivate enough to commit and get started—and that's okay!
I have had this timer set up to prompt me to do 90-seconds of kettlebell swings every single hour of the day. I've been ignoring it for over 18-months but started doing it again today.
JLRacing ErgTrou are the ultimate trou
At first, I thought that the polypro unisex ErgTrou by JLRacing was a gimmick. All I could see that was any different at first blush was that gimmicky alternative logo of a stick figure little unisex person on a Concept2 indoor rower and a slit pocket at the small of the back in which you can stow your smartphone or MP3 player while you're doing all the meters on your erg.
Mark's Mexican Meth is fit for a king but made for a pauper
For someone who is so historically financially successful, Mark Harrison is the Scrooge McDuck of entrepreneurship, affiliate marketing, and influencer marketing.
