• Training Quicklook

    I went ahead and compiled all the data from my training log by month. What I found was interesting… Until recently, I really hadn’t been working out much at all. Now, a 60-mile running month seems slack. With the increased training, you can see my weight dropping like a rock despite me feeling like it has been pretty steady for the past couple months.…

Taylor…

Today was the day, Virginia Run Turkey Trot was the race, and despite being up all night two nights ago with a 100+ degree fever, I was going for it. The weather was perfect; hovering right around 60 degress prerace. Saw some faces from the past,…

  • Oh What A Night

    This past night has been a bad one… read further for details: Dinner – Ordered some Udon from Wasabisito around 6:15pm. At 7:15pm it had not yet arrived so we give them a call and someone says in completely broken English “No deliver today, pickup only.” Great, thanks. You had contact information, but you didn’t bother getting in touch? We hop in the car…
