As most of you know I struggle with chronic fatigue, and I’ve had issues with active bouts of the Epstein-Barr virus over the last four years. For everybody that has issues with Epstein-Barr virus, it affects their body differently. I’ve always had a somewhat compromised neurological system, so when something hits my body in the [...]
At some point I’ve got to finish painting that fence…
This morning I ran 12 miles with my buddy Chris. It was rather cold, started around 45 degrees, but ended up at about 36 degrees at the end of the run, and was quite uncomfortable. As we finished the run, I ran by the side of my house and glanced at my fence. It caught [...]
Run a half marathon……Check!!!
We did it! The crew from renewal all participated in the Disney Half Marathon this past weekend with over 22,000 other crazy people. This was my first half marathon and it actually was really fun. We were up at 2:45 am and left the house at 3:30 am. We got stuck in all the marathon [...]
The dangers of running….
I have officially recovered from my 2 week Thanksgiving hiatus from running. I fell into the typical excuse of being to busy to get my running in. Then I tried to use the excuse I am to tired and just didn’t feel like it. Those excuses don’t work very well with the people I work [...]
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 [...]
Fireworks and Fun Runs
First off…Hope everyone had a great 4th of July! I grilled and ate lots of food, played in the pool, and sat on my porch and watched everyone around me shoot fireworks. The only one that did not enjoy this was my dog. Come to find out she does not like fireworks. She howled and [...]
Running The Sahara
I had the excuse machine ready. This morning, I did not want to get up and go for a run. I wanted to enjoy sleeping in, and being lazy. But truthfully, whenever I don’t run first thing every morning, the chances of me getting a run in are slim to none. It was round 2 [...]
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 [...]
