Our patient spotlight is on Julie Sevelius! Julie ran track (4 years) and cross country (2 years) in high school and then started running longer distances while she was at West Point. She played basketball for four years at West Point and eventually had knee surgery to continue her high activity level. Running was always [...]
Back to Basics!
It is all about the fundamentals. If you have ever played sports, you have heard that statement several times. So I know I fell off the grid for a few months since my last entry, but I’m back! Several things have changed in my running journey. I struggled for several months with being consistent and [...]
How The Tides Have Turned….
I feel like I’ve finally come full circle. It’s been about 6 years (approx. 2005) since I started running, but in August of 2009, I basically was forced to stop running because I got pretty sick for about a year. But since starting back running at the end of 2010 to present time,I have been [...]
Back to normalcy…
It’s 7:30 pm on Tuesday, and as I’m writing this blog entry, I feel quite energized. Last night, I went to my bed at 10:00 pm, which is about 2-3 hours earlier than I have for the last two months. The NBA playoffs are over, and besides a day left of hockey, there is nothing [...]

I did it!!!
At least the training for the marathon, that is…. I feel so blessed and happy that I was able to get through the training for my 3rd marathon. I guess the more amazing thing is that my 1st marathon was a little less than 10 months ago, and I feel as though I have learned [...]
Run on feel
As much as I love gadgets, such as the Garmin Forerunner 405, I think sometimes you really lose your ability to just run off of feel. Sometimes I fall into the habit of not listening to my body, and I become a slave to all the data that the watch shows. Am I in the [...]
A1A Marathon Extravaganza!!!
Wow!!! It has been a whirlwind for the last 72 hours!!! I apologize for not blogging earlier than this but I did not leave Ft. Lauderdale until yesterday morning, and I got to Tampa just in time to treat my patients at 1:00 pm yesterday… couldn’t even go home and get my car. Kerry had [...]
