The Dopey Challenge: Part 2
In Part One of my The Dopey Challenge saga, I shared about my trip to Florida, recovering from strep throat and running (too fast) in the 5-kilometer (3.1-mile) run last Thursday. Well, much happened after that 5K. Friday came and my group of AT-Children's Project running pals awoke at 3 a.m. and drove from our rental house out to EPCOT at Walt Disney World Resort in Orlando.

Whew! It has been a long, long week for me folks. You, perhaps, heard me Monday on air sounding a tad hoarse. Well, I ended up having to go to the hospital for a super bad case of strep throat! Yuk! It was awful, and I didn't know adults still got sick like that. I thought that was like a kid thing. I was most definitely wrong!

As many of you might know, I am a crazy runner.  When I talk about my running endeavors, many people act like I am crazy. But the truth is it's just like those of you who maybe played soccer from when you were 4 years old, or started football back in the rocket football days and still play occasionally today.

Eric Zane and I are so excited because this weekend we are racing in the Grand Rapids Half Marathon! Named one of the best marathons around it should be a fantastic experience. Earlier today I was able to speak with race director, Don Kern. Don told me a bit about the race history and gave me some details that may make you want to lace up and get out this weekend for the race!

Last Saturday I raced in the Air Force Marathon, fantastic experience with some of my running friends!  I opened my email today to find some photos that were taken during the race.  When I look back to running I remember feeling really crappy but in these photos I just look like a goof ball!  Mile 9 I was flashing the ROCK ON sign... Mile 19 I decided to be a Wayland Warrior!  Then of course there

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!

All last week I got to use up some vacation time and head out to Orlando, Florida! It was 80 degrees and sunny the entire trip, AMAZING. I was out there specifically to run the Walt Disney World Marathon, but I managed to squeeze in a hell of a lot of other stuff while I was there...
