Last week I challenged you to share with me the reasons why you do this crazy thing called running.
The response that I received was overwhelmingly awesome!
It was so cool to read everyone’s reasons, because they are all so different.
Looking for some motivation?
Read the stories below and I bet one of them will light a fire under your caboose.
I know it has for me!

As many of you know, I just (praise the Lord!) recovered from a minor hamstring injury that forced me to pull out of Rock n’ Roll San Diego.
Boo!
But! I am back running and haven’t had any problems with my hamstring since.
WOO WHOO!
Or maybe it is in my head?
Who knows.
I am feeling a little off this week. Continue reading
As a runner, there are certain things that really piss me off!
I am sure most people don’t understand, but maybe you (being a fellow runner) will agree with me…
Pull your head out of your ass, man! I mean come on! It’s called peripheral vision, use it and check out your surroundings before you come to a complete freakin’ stop. I understand that you are tired, but really? Continue reading
On Saturday, May 7, 2016 I was the 2:30 pacer for the Santa Barbara Wine Country Half Marathon.
This was my first assignment for Beast Pacing and what a day it was.
But, I am skipping ahead a little.
As I mentioned yesterday, my vacation to Arizona and San Francisco royally threw me out of wack, so I apologize for the late post.
If you read my pacing blog post, you already know that I had a blast pacing this race.
It was an absolutely amazing experience!
But, I digress… We already talked about that.
As many of you know, I was given the opportunity to be the 2:30 Pacer for the Modesto Half Marathon this past Sunday.
I am proud to say that it was a ground breaking, earth shattering, life altering experience.
It was an event that I will never ever forget.
To answer your first question…
Well… pretty damn close.
Preeeetttyyyy damn close.
To answer your second question…
Happy day to you!
If you have checked out my 2016 Race Calendar lately, you would have seen that my next “race” is the Modesto Half Marathon.
It’s next weekend to be exact.
And I am nervous as all get-up but super EXCITED!
Why am I nervous and EXCITED!?!?
Annnnnnd this is my first time pacing!
Although I usually run for bloody Marys, or pancakes… on this special day- I made an exception.
This race was off the charts awesome!
It was held in San Francisco, CA.
Home of my younger sister and of course the Hot Chocolate 15k / 5k race.
We went to the expo the day before to pick up our packets.
It was very well organized, despite the fact that there were 2 billion people there. Continue reading
We made it!
Yesssssssssssssssss!
I leave in roughly 53 minutes (not that I am counting) for Santa Barbara.
I am staying there over the weekend (again) with my super cool friend.
Why?
Rather Be Runnin'
