After completing the Aravaipa Strong virtual race in April, it wasn’t my intention to take 8 months off before writing again. But I didn’t make it a priority. However, if there was anything I wanted to accomplish before this year ended it was to get one last post in. After Aravaipa Strong, I completed…

2018: It Is The Journey That Matters
To say 2018 was a busy, and challenging year would be an understatement. It certainly had its fair share of struggles, and trying hard to have unwavering faith tested me at times. But it was one of the best rewarding running years I’ve ever had and it started on Day 1.
Javelina Jundred 2018: Post-Race Thoughts
Now that I am 3 weeks removed from the race, I can fully embrace the whole experience and share some post-race thoughts about it.

What To Do
It is a new month and upon me, is a new race! Well, not exactly a new race, but a new race for me because I’ve never done it before, and I’m excited about it! There isn’t any race I go in without any sort of excitement attached to it, or else why would I…
