3 Reasons Why Chatbots Will Become More Important to Retailers in 2019
Most consumers today have encountered an automated “helper” that’s routed them to the correct support representative or even suggested complementary products for them based on the items in their digital shopping cart. What used to be an experience uniquely associated with brick-and-mortar store sales associates asking, “how can I help you?” has now reached e-commerce […] from Total Retail http://bit.ly/2VcqS5a

3 Ways to Use Store Design to Provide an Effective Customer Experience
Despite growth in the direct-to-consumer and e-commerce models, when it comes to longevity and success for retail, the physical store remains in the pole position. In fact, only 11 percent of sales are expected to come from e-commerce in 2019. However, stores can’t just rest on their laurels and wait for sales to roll in; they have to engage customers and […] from Total Retail http://bit.ly/2GPHQML

On the Same Page: Blockchain, Communication and E-Commerce
Communication. Coordination. User experience. These aren’t typically the traits that come to mind when discussing blockchain. Instead, many associate the technology with its ability to increase transparency. However, when we think past transparency, the blockchain conversation comes into full bloom. Direct-to-consumer e-commerce is endlessly complex. The flows of information are endless, channels seem to multiply […] from Total Retail http://bit.ly/2DFLfNl

Name That Runner
Every runner has a story.
A story of what they are training for, how long they’ve been a runner, their best race ever, or a tale of the most horrible race that you would never wish on your worst nightmare. War stories of injuries, running in a driving rain, crawling across a finish line or withstanding the bitter cold and blizzards.
I live in a town that has quite a few runners. I see a lot of the same runners every day of the year. It doesn’t matter if it’s morning, noon or night, snowstorm or a hot and humid summer day. We are out there! Some runners I have gotten to know over the years thanks to my run club. Others, I may never know their stories or their names.
So I give them a name.
It’s a little game I like to call, Name That Runner.
Welcome to the cast and crew of runners in my town. I’m sure you have a unique crew in your town,too.
Grunter – A super speedy girl who will never ever take me by surprise. I hear her grunts way before I see her. Is that her way of saying “On your left!”? It must be because Grunter never says ‘hello’ as she cruises by. So rude!
Lara Croft – Another super speedy girl who makes running look effortlessly. We call her Lara Croft (as in the Lara Croft from the Tomb Raider video game) because she has dark hair and wears it in a long braid that swings back and forth as she casually strides by. For years, I didn’t know who she was. As luck would have it, our sons became friends in 2nd grade and so did we. Ironically, her name is Laura but she’s still Lara Croft to me. And of course, I told her this story when we first met. Not awkward at all.
Insanely Overdressed Guy – I’m in a tank and shorts in July. He’s in a 1/2 zip fleece, gloves and ski hat. I always want to say “It is so cold out!” just to hear what his response would be.
Insanely Underdressed Guy – For every piece of clothing Insanely Overdressed Guy puts on, Insanely Underdressed Guy takes off. No matter what the season. 20 degrees? T-shirt and shorts. Snowing? T-shirt and shorts. MAYBE he’ll put a long sleeve shirt on. Maybe.
This is Painful but I’m Doing it Anyway Guy – Two ankle braces and a knee brace and it looks like he winces in pain with every step. Yet he runs by my house almost every single day. Can’t stop, won’t stop.
The Dog Dragger – Let me first start off by saying this woman isn’t actually dragging her dogs. It just looks like the dogs really aren’t into the faster pace. And when I say faster pace, I mean walking at a normal pace. This lady isn’t even a runner. Just another person that we gave a name too.
The Guy with ALL the Blinky Lights On – I’m all for safety when running in the dark but this guy wears so many blinkies that it’s blinding to drivers. One dark winter morning, Kyle and I could see something up ahead of us. We thought it was a police car with it’s lights on. Nope – just The Guy with ALL the Blinky Lights On.
Miss I Never Smile, Wave or Say Hi – Doesn’t she know the runner’s code?
Dan, Dan the running man, running by as fast as he can. – So I actually know this guys name – it is in fact, Dan. He’s so fast that he gets a jingle. However, I can’t claim credit for it. Ron came up with this one all on his own.
The Tip Toe Runner – His name says it all – this guy looks like he’s tip toeing along the road. I know I don’t have the perfect running form but that just looks painful.
The Twins – I’ve seen these two ladies running together ever since I’ve moved to the area 13 years ago. I would love to be their triplet but they are always starting when I’m finishing! If only I didn’t have to be done with my run so early. We could be besties.
So now I need to know – what do other runners call me? Hmmmm…
Say hello to the cast of runners in my town with a game called Name That Runner! #runchat Click To Tweet
Do you make up names for runners in your area that you don’t know?
What do you think your Runner Name would be? I’m guessing mine would be Morning Runner Girl.

Last Week’s Workouts
Last week’s workouts ramped up a bit. My training time is increasing and I’m trying to find more hills for elevation. I feel like I’m slacking off on hill training so with about 6 weeks left in training, now is the time to step it up!
Monday
40 minutes Stepmill
60 minutes Strength and Mobility
Tuesday
52 minute run, 316 ft elev gain
Easy miles with Kyle in the daylight! It’s so lovely how early sunrise is now. The not so lovely part of our run was all the worms all over the roads. At first I thought the road had little sticks everywhere. Nope. That would be worms. April rain will do that! I’m surprised we didn’t wipe out because of the squishy guys everywhere. Blech.
Wednesday
30 minutes Elliptical
60 minutes Strength and Mobility
Thursday
52 minute run, 545 ft elev gain
After spending two days away with my kids at an indoor water park, eating none of my usual food, and having Lukas practice karate on me all night long, this run was destined to be not so good. Oh and not to mention that it was at 5 p.m. – my least favorite time of the day to run. Good times.
The goal of the run was to get as much elevation as possible in 50 minutes. I did a few repeats on the mega hill in town which majorly sucked. There was some walking involved – which hasn’t happened since training started. I felt super sluggish and just blah. I’m not surprised one bit that it sucked. I may have even sandbagged myself before I even started running just because I had a feeling. Oh well. It’s done. I now know not to go to an indoor water park the week of Mount Washington. The wave pool trashed my legs! Who knew?!?!
Friday
Rest day!
Saturday
1:20 trail run, 1089 ft. elev gain
You know it’s going to be a fun (and very wet) trail run in the morning when all night long you heard rain pounding against the windows. Andrea and I met up for some pre-miles before joining up with a larger group doing a preview run of a race the following weekend. We didn’t think there would be so much stop and go explaining the race course. Kind of a bummer but it was nice to run with some new faces. Most of the trails were nothing but mud and streams of water rushing down the mountain. To say my shoes and socks were muddy and wet was an understatement.
Sunday
50 minute run, 9:09 avg pace
This was supposed to be a 40 minute run but I met up with Kyle and some new friends and ended up running a little more than I was prescribed. Whoops. It was lovely to see the sunshine even though it was chilly. I’m so sick of gray and rain. All I’m saying is we better be getting some AMAZING May flowers from all this April rain.
How was your week in workouts?
Linking up with the Weekly Run Down.
