I knew when August started, it was going to just fly by. And it did! This month has been seriously crazy busy but I loved it! One thing I wanted to accomplish this month was to spruce up the look of this blog a little bit. It’s really subtle but I can tell the difference. I’ll…

leona divide 50K 2013 (dnf)
When I said I planned on writing more in 2013, I really wasn’t planning on taking another 3-month hiatus from it. I meant to post this entry back in April (or early May the latest), but life of work and play happened and this post never got done. Well, welcome to blog post #3 for the year….
fun times at ray miller 50/50
Just about 10 days until the LA Marathon and I’m not feeling entirely ready. At this point there really isn’t anything I can do about it but relax and enjoy it for what it is…the opportunity to run through LA streets without getting arrested. December really kind of messed up my training and I was trying to play…
XTERRA boney mountain trail run 6k
We’re already into our third month of 2013 and I haven’t gotten around to writing anything. January and February flew by so fast! The funny thing is I started to write this post in January, and then in February but I just didn’t get it done. I’ll chalk it up to life, laziness, and lack of inspiration to…

portland marathon 2012
The Portland Marathon has been on my race radar for years. Timing never worked out perfectly though, but I made sure 2012 was the year I crossed Portland off my list. I’ve heard so many wonderful things about this race – well organized, best swag, beautiful city, friendly people – yeah, yeah, I just wanted to visit Portlandia! I…
bulldog trail race 25k 2012
I honestly can’t believe it’s been a month since the Bulldog Trail Run 25K took place and I still can’t believe I did it!! The past few weeks have been the most seriously exhausting, fun filled weeks I’ve had all year so getting around to writing up my thoughts on my first trail run kept getting pushed back…
bulldog course preview
This morning I got my first little taste of the Bulldog Trail Run course. Much to my surprise when I arrived around 6:30am, it was raining! Rain in August?! Who would’ve thunkit? It was a light rain and cooled the morning down but I’m sure come race day, the weather conditions will be very different. I…
