I think I can, I think I can…


Hello and Happy day to you!

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!

I do, however, feel as though I have lost some fitness.

Or maybe it is in my head?

Who knows.

I am feeling a little off this week. Continue reading

Things That (As A Runner) I Can’t Stand!


Hello and Happy day to you!

As a runner, there are certain things that really piss me off!

I can’t believe that the Modesto Half Marathon was over 2 weeks ago.

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.

Thinking about signing up for a race?



Happy day to you!

Are you like this dog? Are you stuck?

Do you want to sign up for a race, but are afraid of the commitment?

Allow me to help you!

As you have probably noticed, by checking out my racing calendar I ran 9 half marathons last year, and plan to run 11 more half marathons and atleast 3 (maybe) marathons this year.

So, I would like to think that I have a LITTLE experience in picking a race.

Why?

Because I have made the mistakes, paid the price, and lived to tell you about it. Continue reading
