Have you ever packed your bag and arrived at the gym only to be missing something? I have found myself in this situation a few times. Usually it’s been a forgotten water bottle, or a lock for a gym locker. However, one time the item I forgot was pretty important – my shoes. That day […]

Running Journey

Small Town Races

It’s coming up on a year now since I ran my last race. While I’m still not ready to jump back into heavy training, or to run a half-marathon again, I recently got the itch to run again. To be frank, I haven’t run in weeks (months?). The spring-like weather this week is truly pushing […]

Is Barefoot Running Dangerous

As many long-time readers remember I really became invested in “barefoot” running with my Vibram FiveFingers back in 2011. I got the point where I could run about 6-miles in the shoes and ran a few barefoot 5Ks with them on. I wondered though, is barefoot running dangerous? When I first began barefoot running I […]

One Obnoxious Honk

Well it happened again, one obnoxious honk during another run outdoors around my neighborhood. This time I was running 4 miles when I was jarred by the sound of a car horn. Apparently I’m not the only runner who has had this happen so I wanted to address it in today’s post. One Obnoxious Honk […]
