  • Bye Bye November

    Posted on Sunday November 29th, 2009 at 12:04 in november, inspiration motivation

    I don’t know what the weather is where you live, but here in Pennsylvania, this November morning was glorious.  Almost 50 degrees, with sun and no wind, and the running was superb.  There probably won’t be a lot of days like this anymor...

    With tomorrow’s  big dinner looming, it may be important to lengthen the runs a bit.  Why?  Well, I’ve read that the traditional turkey dinner can easily chalk up around 2500 calories.  At 100/mile, that’s 25 miles, or almost a ...

  • Winter

    Posted on Wednesday November 18th, 2009 at 11:49 in winter, inspiration motivation

    It was 40 degrees with a low, dark sky as I headed out this morning.  A chilling wind made the air feel colder, and a sense of winter filled my mind.  We’ve been fortunate to have mild weather this autumn, and I haven’t given winter muc...

    I was talking to a running friend one time who told me he ‘packs it in’ after Thanksgiving and doesn’t run at all during the winter.  Every spring he pulls out the shoes and starts over.  Well, I guess that works for him, but I am...

  • To Marathon or Not to Marathon

    Posted on Monday November 2nd, 2009 at 07:37 in Marathon, nyc, inspiration motivation

    “Over 50″ runners were well represented in this year’s New York City Marathon.  Checking the results, if my math is correct, I found 8,434 finishers over 50.  By the way, that included 198 who were over 70, and one dozen hearty so...

I'm a dedicated runner also. I've logged a little over 750 miles on my nikeplus shoes, which are amazing. I've been running since high school and I'll run as long as my body will allow me. Cool blog.
