Life has a funny way of circling back, allowing you to see something from an entirely different perspective. Most people who know me well know I have a very good memory, so me saying I have a detailed recollection of January 15, 2011 shouldn’t come as a shocker. It helps that it’s the date of […]

2015 Goals Blah Blah Blah Cuss Less  <—–Fuck This One – The Rock.

I started to write this report 1,000 times and I scrapped it every time because words couldn’t do the experience justice. They still can’t…but with so many friends heading to Bandera this year the race I keep looking back on my experience and writing this and looking at pics helps me contain my jealousy. On […]

I’ll keep the words to a minimum. It was a jam packed 2014 – Here’s what 10 Marathons, 9 Ultras, 1 half marathon and a couple pacing gigs look like in pictures. January – Bandera 100k (AKA best weekend ever) February – Finally broke 4:30 at the Myrtle Beach Marathon March – Paced the Columbia […]

Life for the American Indians was forever changed when the White Man introduced them to: Take-backsies – I’m pretty sure Cards Against Humanity is one reason I’m going to Hell.

And he’s not just pulling his pants up…the guy actually sells belts. That’s how devoted he is to the cause of raised pants! – Jessica Williams, putting Hannity in his place. I think she needs her own show.    

No race pics posted yet, which in my option always makes for an annoying report. Sorry. Like most weekends I’m “in town” I overbooked myself, scheduling my annual Christmas Jammy Jam the night before The Nutcracker 12 Hour race. At the time I didn’t think it was a big deal. The race was an hour […]

Jenny declares GU to be tastiest treat ever. – Garbanzo   I’m not sure this was the best thing I’ve heard or read all week…but this was definitely the best thing I’ve seen all week:

    Anyone else hear “Eye of the Tiger” whenever you see someone running in a hoodie?

I’m sorry I suck at whipping pussy – Abby, whose bib said “Pussy Whipper” because mine said:   Post Race Beer made everything all better

A Lot of fedora-type dudes don’t actually wear fedoras, you just know them from the way they are. It’s like a personality fedora. An internal fedora. It’s their Fedaura. – I love Tumblr.

It was 19 degrees when I pulled up to the start line. As someone who LOVES running in the 30s (often in shorts and a tank) I wasn’t quite prepared for how harsh the loss of 10 degrees would feel. I stood by my car, trying to summon the courage to shed the fleece pants I had over […]

Tell the pain to shut up, you’re not done yet  – Joe Prusaitis, convincing a runner to not DNF Wild Hare 50    

it was a great reminder to me of what it’s like to feel omitted in the absolute absence of any hostility or ill feeling. It was a reminder that some of the time, feeling not seen in a work that you’re watching or hearing or reading is not reminiscent of being insulted or consciously blown […]

For the last 4 years I’ve maintained a healthy trend of having a Spring and a Fall PR. Even if the PR is 20 seconds like in Spring 2013…a PR is a PR. I figured this fall would be the exception because I hadn’t really done much in terms of training. In fact, I’d been […]
