tv shows created for runners
Fall has begun (well, not if you’re in Los Angeles where we’re still getting temperatures in the 80s and 90s on most days), and with Fall comes a brand new season of television shows. Now, I watch my fair share of television even without a T.V. or cable. Hellooo? Hulu and Netflix! But of course there are also…
a change of race
Sunday morning couldn’t have started better. Waking up early before my alarm was to go off, I had plenty of time to eat, get ready, and get out to the trails before meeting up with the group training run for the Griffith Park Trail Half Marathon.

my year without cable
September is officially over, and with it, I have officially survived a whole year without cable or television. Yes! It can be done! Last September the cable came off, and in it’s replacement, Netflix and Hulu came on. Truth is I didn’t really miss the cable. I didn’t really watch that many programs to begin…
