Don’t tell my heart…
I assume that this happens to everyone, but the closer I get to my marathon, the more that little aches and pains seem to appear. Every step I take is one step closer to a sprain, strain, or calamity that shall prevent me from my marathon. It's really odd actually. As...
The trouble with cars
The trouble with cars is that they are always in the way. Driving. And not looking. And not giving us runners any freakin' respect. That's right, no respect. R-E-S-P-E-C-T. This little guy was just trying to get his tempo run in. I mean sheesh, just cause we like to...

22.5 and the WINNER
I know you all don't want to read about how amazing my 22.5 miler was on Saturday. Or read how great I felt and how I sprinted in the last half mile at a 7:50 pace. And I bet you don't want to read how I'm not really all that sore today and how I'm shocked by all of...
