Feeling like a runner and eating like a pig… Let’s start with tonight’s weather. It was windy and cold. How cold? That cold. The wind was stronger. And the forecast left out the snow. My mom was told me there was a wind warning. Since my fellowship is moved to tomorrow and I had tonight free….so off I go. This was the first time I ran with my camel pack. Every time I took...
Running… I have been running after work for the past few days. The weather has been shifting slowly to winter. Last week there were rain and snow. In those weather, I still opt to go for a run.

But once we got the blood...

Will talk for socks Yesterday, I went to Running Room and shared my Ironman experience with two groups. At first I want to discuss the topic ‘Discover your passion’. I dig this post up and quickly realize that I will be sharing my own passion and how I discovered it. When it comes to public speaking, I am a mix. By nature, I talk very fast, tense up and just go right through what I...
Shoemate and boogers make everything nice Today is a sad day folks. I am departing an old friend. A friend that had been with me in the mud, the rain and the snow for the past two years.
