I r ti-erd…

Still tired. Must … keep … going. That’s what I was thinking at about mile 11 of the half marathon I ran this past weekend. To say that the course had a couple hills is like saying the Battle of Gettysburg had a few deaths. Holy Smack! That course was...

I was runnin’

Well, time to start running again. I have a half marathon coming up at the end of June that I have to get ready for. It’s in Ridgeland, MS. My mom lives there and it is organized by her running group. Sounds fun. Head over here to take a look...

Searcy MADD Dash 5K

Well, I did another 5K this past weekend. No, I didn’t get first place again…I got second. And, to top it off, there were more than 2 people in the division. There were 5. HA! So, my 2nd place finish feels a lot better than my previous 1st place finish....

Relay for Life 5K

Well, last weekend I ran the annual Searcy Relay for Life 5K. The proceeds benefit the American Cancer Society. It was a good course. I’m pretty used to it because it actually ran through my neighborhood. My friend Jon and I decided it would be a fun little run to...

Marathon Makeover

It’s Saturday, October 6, 2007, about 7:00 pm and I’m sitting around a table of Marathoners thinking, “How the hell did I get here?” It all started back in January when I got a call from my mom, Sheila Gold (who, I’m sure, you all know by now), telling me...

Little Rock Half Marathon

2:21:11 More later. LATER: Okay, so here’s the skinny. It was a great race. I’m really glad they moved the start and finish to the River Market area. Great temperature for a race. It actually got warm at times, but it was way better than Chicago with it’s almost 90...

Holy Hilly Terrain, Batman

What was I thinking? I was a moron today. I had to run. Not very well I might add. You see, Saturday’s are my long run days. Here lately, they’ve been my only run days. I missed last Saturday because everyone at the house was sick, including myself. So, after...

On the trail again

Well, I did another trail run with Jon today. It wasn’t nearly as bad as the last one. We did run the same route, but the weather was a lot better. I was running in a short sleeve shirt by the end of the run. Beautiful day. If you want...

Trail Run #2

Well, I must be a glutton for punishment. I went with Jon on another trail run today. Not only did we do the same route as last week (grueling), we did more. We finished the trail in about 41 minutes. Instead of heading down the road and back like last...

Trail Run

Well, did my first trail run today. A friend of mine, Jon, is going to run a 50K trail run in April. So, decided to do his long run with him this week. Luckily, his long run is just supposed to be a hour to 2 hours on the trail....
