Safer Roads? This week I thought it might be best to stick to the main roads. A simple out and back makes sure we can all follow the path. Hopefully the ice and snow is pushed back farther than on the side streets. Don’t worry too much. We have some melting coming soon. It won’t ...
No Time to Plan Didn’t have anything better to say. Go run to Haverhill. Bring everyone back. https://www.mapmyrun.com/routes/fullscreen/1745985692/ BRC Express. Shorter run for those who want to get some miles then head to the slopes. Changes coming soon. https://www.mapmyrun.com/routes/fullscreen/2182551115/ This week. Ugh. Erik BRC70
Nice Work Congratulations to the new graduating class and welcome to a lifetime of greatness. It seems the induction was a smashing success. Many miles and many beers ahead. Keep it up. Simple Plan So, I’m away. Usually when that happens, I tend to send people to Haverhill. I seem to remember a few enterprising ...
Getting final Borders just in time We have a new graduating class ready to enter their names in the book. There’s still time to get more. We’re going to Salem, and hitting Lawrence and Methuen along the way. (And then, sure, we’ll come back) Bring folding money for water or juice at the Salem border. ...
. What do you need me for? It appears people are just going to go run whatever the hell they want, whenever they want to. Since I’ve met most of you, I wouldn’t expect anything less. It’s like herding cats in here. Make the cats’ paths merge. So, given the extra-long course some RWOBs are ...
Reflections. We’ve reached the end of the calendar. Is it a time to look back at all the miles (and beers) or a time to look forward to marathon training and snow? How about a bit of both? Take stock of your accomplishments and revel in that extra IPA or whisky sour. Get your resolutions ...
Winter is here. You know how when you wait for something a little longer than usual, the anticipation can be leading up to something absolutely epic? Well, this is not one of those times. I am on vacation. So you waited. And here it is. Winter is also here. That magical time when the days ...
Where? I had thought about suggesting we (you) run another extremely long border run this weekend, but I know many are going to The Assault on Mt. Hood tomorrow. So, we’lll have a “step back” week and run one of my faves. Head out to West Boxford. There’s a store at the midpoint where a ...
I couldn’t eat another bite… I bet you thought I forgot about you. Nope. Sleeping in. I hope everyone had a relaxing Thanksgiving Day. What a wonderful time to spend with family and friends. I don’t know about you, but my kitchen looks like a tornado hit it, and told it twice. I’m thankful for ...
It’s Coming Silly Eating Season is almost here. According to Wiley’s “Most Obscure Seasons and Why You Should be Prepared” the tradition of Silly Eating Season began in 1543 when King Henry VIII was having such a joyous time, he didn’t want his annual harvest feast to end; so he encouraged the Royal Guard to ...
