The Friday Rundown: Shakin’ up the cell search and pumps on the field…
Well Friday is here folks – I’m in lovely (read: chilly) Pennsylvania this weekend celebrating my Grandma’s 90th birthday. 90!! WOWZA!

The Friday Rundown - ‘Betes Superheros, contests, and A1c, Fall Edition
Almost nothing gets me more stoked than famous folks with diabetes using their status to make an impact, and one of the best of the best is Chicago Bears quarterback Jay Cutler. Diagnosed only two short years ago, Jay’s already made being a positive role model for people, especially children, with diabetes his personal mission. [...]
The Friday Rundown: Flu, SD area training run, and Lantus news
