Vanquishing the 'lazy stoner' stereotype by educating athletes and non-athletes alike about the responsible use of cannabis as a beneficial supplement to an active, healthy and productive lifestyle.
Here is a quick synopsis of who I am, what I do, and where I see myself fitting into the Cannabis Community and Industry. I'm an aspiring endurance athlete (back-of-the-packer), trainer, and meetup director, as well as a passionate educator and advocate, living in Santa Cruz. I'm active in the endurance community through racing (completing-not-competing),... Continue Reading →
https://vimeo.com/256230570 30 pro-cannabis fitness enthusiasts, including a couple of HelloMD staffers, joined Moonman's Mistress—maker of healthy, whole-food marijuana edibles—for its second Burn and Baked boot camp-style event. Held at Hit Fit SF in San Francisco's Mission district, the nearly hour-long, high-intensity workout exemplified the company's focus on fitness, nutrition and education.
My road-trip across the nation began about two weeks prior to the Badwater run. I left Santa Cruz and headed to Phoenix to drop our cat with the in-laws who, from their great benevolence offered to cat-sit.

My little homeboy Fletch came with me yesterday and enjoyed a short-but-sweet play-sesh poolside. Today, he'll have lunch with some colleagues while I... Continue Reading →

Driving past the Long Beach port and seeing all the thousands of cargo containers and ships and trucks, it occurs to me that I'm looking at the commerce of the nation. You can't understand the scale unless you see it, and I become aware of that much more of which I'm unaware, and will never... Continue Reading →
I feel driven to destygmatize Cannabis use, and provide real, scientifically up-to-date and pertinent education regarding recovery from addiction and alcoholism, as well as mindful and wholistic living.
Active Fitness - Treadmill & Kind Drops - First day back after a couple rough weeks of no running. Piriformis Syndrome flare-up, followed by a nasty cold and visiting in-laws (not like that; they're awesome), I found it terribly difficult to find rhythm to my days. Head and house clear, I'm feeling newly motivated, capable,... Continue Reading →
