I spent the last week in Memphis, TN for work. I took advantage of the warmer weather and “healed” knees and went for a few 4-mile runs.

Riverfront Park makes for a lovely run. I really enjoy running by water. Surprisingly (or maybe not so going by the extremely unhealthy food here) I only passed 1-3 runners each morning. In Brooklyn, even in the rain or snow there are more than that.

Although the people in Memphis are super friendly, the city is seeped in historical civil right legends and they have idyllic trolley rides……the food is way too fried for me and trying to find soy milk was like trying to turn lead into gold. Interestingly enough while on the elliptical at the hotel gym I noticed that Women’s Health magazine ranks Memphis one of the 10 WORST cities in the US for women……. I’m glad to be back in my husband’s arms in cold Brooklyn, NY
