Cold? What Cold? Thank goodness we are in between the snow “storms” for this week’s run. Don’t get me wrong. I love the big heavy storms, but they make it hard to want to run sometimes. Right now, the roads should be mostly clear, although there are spots of ice around for sure. And tomorrow’s ...

Merry Christmas I wish you and your families a most joyous and happy Christmas, however you choose to celebrate the holidays. Just because Santa didn’t bring you new shoes, or a race entry or two does NOT mean you can misbehave like I may have. Allegedly. Nobody saw me do who did it. The elves ...
Ghosts We are all familiar with Dickens’ A Christmas Carol. What may not be as familiar is a Victorian tradition of telling ghost stories at Christmastime. What does that have to do with running? I don’t know. It was just intended to keep your mind off the fact that this is a short email, and ...
Winter is Coming Please understand, I do not write this as a dire warning, but as a joyous celebration and welcome. Glorious Winter is coming closer every day. In fact, the Winter Solstice will arrive this year at 5:02am on Monday, December 21st. You may not like winter. You may have great dread of the ...
