I tried something new again this week! Believe it or not, but I’ve lived in South Dakota for a majority of my life and I’ve never been to a rodeo before. I even lived a mile away from the rodeo grounds when I was little and all through high school – but it took me […]
Big news! If you’re reading this, you may have already noticed, but my website has gone through a big makeover since my last post. I’d like to introduce the NEW and improved Swimming Through Life website! I’ve been working really hard over the last two weeks to get the new site up and running and

This week, I’m here to tell you all the reasons why summer is the best season of all: Haha totally kidding, I do like summer, but I don’t like the heat. I’m not so secretly looking forward to some cooler fall temps. However, once I look past the blistering heat, I do enjoy summer activities.

It’s officially summer and boy does it feel like it! Mother Nature finally cranked up the heat. I’m not a fan of the heat, but I do love how summer feels a bit more laid back. Traffic isn’t as busy in the mornings because no one has to go to school. We can spend
It was raining one of the mornings I woke up early to run this week. It wasn’t raining very hard, just enough to be annoying. But it was 4:30 in the morning, and I was already a little cranky about having to wake up to run – adding any amount of rain to the mix
