It isn’t very often that I’m a spectator at a race, as I’ve mentioned previously, I love to race and I try to do it often, just because I love being around all the people, and the excitement that goes along with it. On Oct 12, I had the pleasure of spectating the Chicago Marathon […]
I love food. And this makes trying to eat clean all the time, really difficult. I like to try new things and it’s hard to restrict yourself especially when you are in a new place and doing a lot of walking and other exercise. So, I do my best to add in a salad with […]
Finishing up my tour of travel a few weeks ago was a visit to Ventura Beach, CA for the Ventura Marathon or half marathon in my case :). I had been planning on running this event for a while, ever since my friend Rhea told me about it earlier this year. She, her husband, Kenny, […]
When I was in San Diego for the Rock n’ Roll Half Marathon, Pete & I had seen an ad for Eclipse Chocolate in the San Diego Dining magazine and it looked amazing, so after looking at the website we decided to hit it up. I went a second time over Labor Day weekend and […]
I love to race, no matter what the outcome, PR or not, it’s been 8 weeks since my last race, which I think was part of the reason I was getting bored with my training, plus this crazy heat is insane :). Last weekend, I went up to San Francisco to run the 1st half […]

But now all is semi-back […]
I had the pleasure of being a part of the shake-out run with Meb Keflezighi this past weekend as part of the Suja Rock n Roll San Diego Marathon & Half Marathon weekend. I had seen the shake-out run advertised, and since my birthday is coming up, I decided to give myself an early birthday […]
I think I’ve mentioned this before, but I love food and I have a super crazy sweet tooth. The past 2 weeks have been a whirlwind as far as food goes with trips out of town for both personal & work events and I’ve been eating not so cleanly. I don’t have any more planned […]
This post has been a long time coming, I should have written it a long time ago, but I have/had a lot of conflicting views on this race. Last time I wrote about Italy, I had been to the expo and did a shake-out run with The Roman Guy. After the shakeout run, I had […]
This past weekend I went up to Zion with some of my running buddies to run the Ragnar Trail Relay. We did the McDowell Mountain Relay last year and so when one of my running buddies told us about a team that was looking for runners, we jumped at it. A little burnt toast moment […]
