So, y'all know that Rogue and I haven't been ... how do you say it ... Training? I mean we don't ever really train in the traditional sense. But if we know we've committed to a race, we'll ramp up our mileage a bit. All of a sudden. Kind of hurky jerky. And call it … Continue reading Psht. We Totally Had It

Hi-Dee-Hoe’n With The Crew
Guess who's sweeping the lower 10 miles of the CtC marathon? Yeah. Stop laughing. I'm feeling pretty confident about it. I successfully led a group through the Hi-Dee-Hoe Loop yesterday morning. I did. Except by successfully led, I mean that I was forced out in front and stopped at all intersections (and maybe even a … Continue reading Hi-Dee-Hoe’n With The Crew
RPM Death Clicks
I awoke this morning to this little girl sidled up alongside my back using my body as a bunker as she smacked the biggest cat on the butt and called him names. That's not the way you want to wake up.

A Promiseland Parallel Run

He really only ever sees me at a finish line. When I've successfully navigated a race course. With the help of a LOT of … Continue reading Volunteer of the Year
Frozen Toe 9/10k
First race of 2019. I wasn't ready. So, I've already relayed what I'm about to share with you to the head Mountain Junkies. I mean, not ALL of what I'm about to share. Because most of it doesn't effect them. But I've shared what they need to know. You'll see. You all know (if you … Continue reading Frozen Toe 9/10k
My Brain on Running
It's 3:45 ... in the actual morning ... on a Sunday ... and my brain is really trying to understand why my alarm is going off. And has been going off ... repeatedly ... for the last 45 minutes. Because I know me, so last night I did this... But still. Why do I keep … Continue reading My Brain on Running
