So I just finished registering for the Chilly Cheeks on January 20th, and then setting the plan for the months to follow. I decided to check out the ocean drive 10-miler again and somehow it motivated me to consider running the OD Marathon again this year, in hopes of doing better than last year. I […]

Well its time to put the period at the end of 2007. I look back on my running for 2007 and have really had some ups and downs …. the year started with my downer in march at the ocean drive marathon, but finished on an upper with the harrisburg marathon and then the run […]

I realize now that since i’m not formally training, that I don’t even update my blog anymore, but its not a bad thing since i don’t really have too many exciting things to say. I find that life is more interesting and theres more to write about when I’m training. Believe it or not, we’re […]

For anyone who has been following the blog for awhile, I have kind of been lax with my writings recently. This is due to the fact that i’m not actually training for anything right now, and also that I’ve been terribly busy. I’m doing pretty good in staying in shape for the most part by […]

So my plan of getting back to the gym was accelerated by the fact that it got very cold outside, very quick. Its really too cold to be recreationally running outside in my opinion, so I’ve resorted to being the gym. Its tough to run on the treadmill after being outside for so many months, […]

I wrote just quickly the other day about my excellent time at the Diamonds, however I didn’t post my times, or comment on the few things that happened (and note my current status either!) So, first off, I was fortunate enough to run another race with stud boy … (do a search on my blog, […]

So I was healthy enough to head out for the 98th annual Run for the Diamonds in Berwick, and what a showing I had. This was the 3rd year in a row running the race on Thanksgiving, and it was my best yet. I completed the 9 mile ‘hilly’ course in just 1:08, which is […]

So I haven’t written all week because there wasn’t much to say right now … I did get my first run in at the YMCA this week, so I’m prepared to start my morning workouts there again next week. My hamstring that was sore seems to have passed and my back is a little sore […]

So its the start of the last week of racing for the season … I hope to appear for the 98th annual Run for the Diamonds in Berwick on Thanksgiving morning. The reason I say that I hope is because I feel a slight bit of pain in my right hammy after my run today. […]

Its been a crazy week after breaking my PR at Harrisburg last weekend. I returned from San Francisco yesterday and didn’t run, and got out this morning for a good, quick 5 miler. I really kicked but on it (doing 5 miles in under 41 minutes, impressive). I’m not sure if I wrote about it […]
