THIS IS MY RUNNING JOURNEY

I just snuck in a 40 min strength/core/slant board session after a very long day. Pretty psyched that I got it in and oddly, because my...

Recently, I have been feeling stuck, unsure, lost, uninspired and just generally down. This is unusual for me. Most of the time, I'm a...

Last week, I went on my first work trip since the end of 2019. The best part about work trips has always been being forced to go...

I can't eat eggs. I guess that's good from a karma perspective- no killing of baby male chicks, less cholesterol in the diet, better for...

This week marks the halfway point for this training block. 12 weeks to go until the Golden Gate Trail Classic. This is going to be a...

When I picture my life in an alternate universe, I often think of the life that Anton Krupicka lives. I only really know his life through...

These past couple of weeks, I've been testing out some mental strategies for getting through the tough parts of my long runs. I've never...

Yesterday, I had my longest training run that I'll do for this training block. 30 miles is long, no matter how you slice it. Also, it was...

The Happy Runner, by David and Megan Roche was exactly what I needed to read in this phase of my training. I was first exposed to David...

The biggest challenge around training for this 50 miler has been balancing the training with regular life. Sounds obvious, but something...

I think the last time I was sitting in bed at 8:50 on a Sunday morning was last Mother's Day. This was after I had completed the Goggin's...

Way back when, I used to travel to the office in Montclair and I loved getting these peanut butter chocolate chip energy balls from this...

Two mornings ago, I woke up in a panic. My first thought was that I hadn't been training on hills enough and that I would DNF the 50...

Just finished up Week 9 of my training block for the 50 mile race in July. I hit about 42 miles this week, right on target with running 6...
