George Mallory, an English mountaineer who led the first three attempts to summit Mount Everest in the early 1920s, was once asked by a New York Times reporter why he was so intent to climb the mountain. His four word response quickly became iconic: "Because it is there.". So, why do I want to run a marathon? The snarky is: Why not? Has it been a fun experience so far? Monday, September 14, 2015. I'll b...

Tales of an Average Runner. Subscribe to this Blog. Sunday, April 17, 2016. In last week's post, I wrote that " The wall shall not stop me. Well, I must eat these words.

A couple weeks ago, I ran probably the strongest 22 miles I have ever run. The cloudless day and warmer temperature - nearly 70 degrees by the halfway point - was starting to take its toll. Also, Jody ...

It is hard to tell, but in the bottom center is the marathon expo at Lambeau. By 7:00 AM, the corrals were mostly full. This race had about 8,000 total runners, but this included...

Tales of an Average Runner. Subscribe to this Blog. Sunday, July 26, 2015. Prior to this blog, I started a Word document that I thought would serve as my running journal (something that the running literature strongly recommended). It didn’t. I wrote one entry. This post is a slightly revised version of that lone. Entry, an entry that I wrote after I completed a 3 mile run on a bitterly cold February morning. Besides, the other weather app had it at a balmy -8 F [Real Feel]. What the heck! My upper body ...

I would have been clueless had it not been for a colleague who said that they were going to be televised on NBC. As I watched these athletes run their ridiculously stupidly fast 5:00 min/mi paces (the men's winner, Galen Rupp had an average pace of 5:01 min/mi . I can't sprint that fast! Is held on May 22! How did I know tha...
