Lara mentioned the electronics freaking her out. Whether she is kidding or not, there is more to this…(insert lightning and spooky music).
We’ve only lived in our current house for one year. The other house was in the city. An all brick Cape Cod built in 1947. The first year we lived [...]

Hal Higdon says Monday is rest day but for me it was shopping day.
Sunday I did 30 minutes of biking, and all of my upper body strength training. It was an hour and half for everything so I think I did ok with my 1 hour of cross training even if some of it [...]

Yesterday was my 5 mile run at the park. What fabulous weather! About 70F with mostly clear skies with a bunch of puffy white clouds just floating along. There’s enough shade on the trails in places that you aren’t getting roasted while you run, but enough open spots so you can enjoy [...]

This is my most recent sock purchase. Notice the non-sweaty running people on the wrapper. If you buy these socks you will not sweat.
There is also a Lifetime Guarantee which states “If you are not completely satisfied, return this product with purchase receipt for a FREE replacement.” I’m not sure where [...]

I didn’t want to run last night because I had been so tired this week and “dead legs” had set in, but I just had that guilty feeling of not running. Its so early in the training and it seems so lame for me to be tired already. Heck, why is 3 miles [...]

Or should that say “wimped”.
I spent yesterday guiding the cub scouts around the scout camp during their Wild West Day Camp. I think I walked about 47 miles. On the way to camp we found what looked like a Spotted Turtle in the road and we stopped on the moved him to the [...]

I’ve ordered my Garmin Forerunner 201 and the 4-bottle fuel belt. Damn excited to get both. I really am looking forward to long runs without carrying a bottle in my hand (although I’ve gotten used to the sloshing and found a way to hold it so as to minimize this anyway), and now [...]

I had the best run tonight!
7.0 miles at the park and I was totally in the groove.
I spent the morning helping to set up a cub scout day camp program for next week, so I ran in the evening. I made sure that I wasn’t eating anything that would upset the tummy and, in [...]

Me: How did you like that?Tummy: Like what?Me: That Fig Newton I just ate.Tummy: A Fig Newton? Never felt a thing.Me: Really? Tummy: Yup, try another one. Maybe [...]
