• I eat, therefore I am

  Wow.  It’s amazing to me that when I’m not running, I eat like a pig.  This past week was a “no running zone” week.  I decided not to run and see if my knee would heal up.  I finally headed out today, one week after my las...

• Wow! It’s been a long time.

  I don’t know what it is other than being lazy.  I enjoy writing, but I just haven’t been motivated lately.  But the good news is I’m still running.  The bad news is my knee hurts again.  I did a very hilly 20 mile run yesterday ...

  Next week is the Rocky Mountain 1/2 Marathon in Denver, and my goal for this one is to just break 2 hours.  I haven’t been running a whole lot since my last 1/2 marathon, which was only 3 weeks ago, and I can sure tell.   But that’s ok...

  You know that time where it’s after football season, and before summer.  The dreary days of February are the worst.  It’s still cold, which makes it harder to run outside, and there’s no football to watch!  There are very few rac...

  I did the half at the Denver Marathon this past weekend and I must say that it was a success.  My goal was not to push myself too hard, finish somewhere around 2 hours, and not hurt my knee.  The day was perfect for running.  It was 50 degrees at ...

  I know that I haven’t written anything in awhile, but I do have many excuses. I just won’t share those with you. Other than house hunting and doing my training runs, nothing much else is new. It seems like my marathon, The OBX is such a...

• Runnin’ of the Green Lucky 7K

  Posted on Monday March 17th, 2008 at 18:12 in beer, denver, st patrick's day, runnin' of the green

  I wonder if they called it Runnin’ of the Green because most people looked a little green since it was the day after most of the St Patrick’s Day celebrations. The day before this race was not a good way to prepare for this run for me. ...

  I did the Run the Republic race this past Sunday in downtown Denver at the tallest building in the Rocky Mountain region which consisted of running (or walking) up 53 flights of stairs. I really didn’t know what to expect and I had no game pla...

  Posted on Monday February 11th, 2008 at 11:01 in beer, running

  I enjoy reading some of the other running blogs that I come across because they sometimes have good information, or some type of training tip that is useful.  It is a struggle sometimes to come up with something on my end that is useful, and maybe j...

  Just a follow up to my previous post I wanted to let you know that the Irish Snug Running Club made the big time!  Check out page 50 of the latest Runners World magazine and you’ll see a little side article titled Pub Crawl.  In the article ...

  Posted on Wednesday February 6th, 2008 at 10:05 in beer

  I finally decided that it’s time to cut back my consumption of beer, and also change the type of beer I drink.  It’s not that I drink alot, but I usually do have a couple of beers a day, and it’s usually a high alchohol, lots of ca...

• Drinking Lots of Beer + Running = Bad Race

  Posted on Sunday November 11th, 2007 at 14:40 in beer, colorado, running, multiple sclerosis

  I was over served. It’s not my fault. Why would someone keep giving me beer when I need to stop because I’m running in the morning? Went to The Irish Snug last night and had a great time. But, I was over served. This morning I ran a ...
