What can I say about the Air Force Marathon?  It is AWESOME! I don't know if I would be saying this if the stars hadn't aligned for me and I hadn't ran what was basically the best marathon I ever ran!

I am a cross country and track coach.  I talk about running so much that by this point you must know that I am a runner.  Well I was designing my teams shirts for the year while I was at work.  ACDC was blasting and I found myself singing along to, "For those about to rock...

I am back! Hold your excitement please ;) all last week I was gone not only running, the Walt Disney world half marathon, but I was on a 5 day cruise to the Bahamas! For one thing the race was awesome! I ran pretty solid, and earned over 2,000 dollars for the AT-Children's project! The cruise on the other hand... WAS ALSO AWESOME! It consisted of a lot of sun, and a lot of beer. Here are a few pic

I hate snow! Well I love hate it... It is very pretty. I like this time of year, like Christmas, and New Years, BUT I absolutely hate running in the snow! Give me a cold day for a run and I'm all about it, but throw some snow in there and I'm ready to throw some punches...

Along with Eric Zane and Producer Steve I have been training for the 5/3 Riverbank Run.

After my disastrous showing at the Walt Disney Marathon, I felt that I had to come in to this one and try and redeem myself...

This past 4th of July I entered the 2011 Volkslaufe 5k! Yup Volkslaufe, WTF does that mean? Well its German and its in the awesome German town of Frankenmuth. It was a very hot day and I was not looking forward to running through the heat like that, but being one of the most competitive people I know I had to force myself to run through it!
