Hey readers- I'm skipping out on posting today to bring you a series of articles I found most interesting lately. Each has a good short description on the story so you can choose what you may be more interested in looking at. Happy reading!

This past weekend, a British woman won the New York Marathon- 9 months after giving birth to her daughter. It's an incredible story, and while not all of us are post pregnancy marathon winners, this story- printed before the race takes an interesting look at Paula Radcliffe and the controversy over exercising during pregnancy.

Here is an interesting in depth look at how our little quirks at the gym may be more than that. While some of these cases may seem a little far fetched and intense, think about your comfort zone at the gym, what machines you choose over others, and the atmosphere you enjoy the most. Are you a little workout OCD as well?

A national concern that we should all be paying attention to, this is a good look at the MRSA (staph) infection lurking at the gym. The article has some really good stats as well as good tips and information for prevention measures.
