I Knew I Forgot Something!
in 2014 I ran a Mud Run, a Color Run, a12k, a trail half marathon and started running trails with my 15 year old daughter. But to be completely honest, I was unfocused and not very motivated. So looking back over the year and doing a bit of introspection, I realized that I failed to …
Maintenance Running
Boot-camp on Saturdays and soccer games on Sundays had cut my weekend running for the past 2 1/2 months. Soccer is a running game but it's not a steady consistent run. It's stop, start, run fast, jog, stop, start, etc. for 90 minutes. Sure my fast-twitch improved but I'm a distance runner and to be able …

There’s never a good time so just get going already
I like to run marathons. For fun. I have a goal in place to run 10 marathons by the time I'm 50. And since I run a race every other year, I'm due for one next year (age 47) and then number 10 in 2 years (age 49). Easy peasy, right? My conundrum is timing. …

Mixing it up
Hooray for the end of Daylight Savings! For a few months now I've moved my weekday runs exclusively to one route. Because it's been so dark for my 6am runs I needed to stick to a route that keeps me on more active streets and areas where I see people out running or exercising. Now …
