I started plodding out my miles with a heavy heart. One foot in front of the other, each obeying out of duty. It was a beautifully sunny and somewhat warm day, for February. Normally I would have been thrilled to be out running, soaking in the sunshine and becoming energized by the warm, fresh air. Not today…

Read MoreI love running at all times of the day, but my favorite choice of time is smack dab in the middle of my workday. There are many reasons for this, but the most important reason is to force myself to reset. One might argue that stopping and taking a lunch break is a good enough reset, but that is where you are wrong…
Read MoreJust because you might have to be socially distancing yourself these days, you can still connect in virtual ways. Zwift is the only way, that I know of, that provides a completely virtual world to train and compete against.

Read MoreThis is a tale of running shoes, Girl Scout Cookies, deception and friendship. It all began one fine day when a friend (who shall not be named) and I started talking about running gear. The conversation went to the hypothetical and went down the path what gear we’d buy if we were going to splurge on something. I told them I’d probably buy a nice pair of shoes…
Read MoreI love running at night, especially when the weather warms up a big. The night time makes a worn out route feel alive again, it also makes me feel like I’m faster than I really am. It also turns out that there’s not a lot of stylish looking night gear out there…
Read MoreOf all the posts that I’ve posted this far, my nose breathing articles have been my most popular. I’m not particularly surprised by this, since there’s not a lot written about using breathing for regulating running pace. Most articles that I’ve read address proper breathing techniques, the negative affects nose breathing has on overall performance, or why breathing through your nose can be healthy for your body…
