In the month of July, we typically will see 14 days that reach 90 degrees or higher, and with the high humidity, it feels much hotter. To keep running, you need the right clothes and the right gear. Here is what has been working for me this summer:. The North Face Better Than Naked Hat. The North Face Better Than Naked Shirt. Is it insane to pay $50 for a running shirt? Thoughts on a fe...

Reading, Running, and Red Sox. Friday, April 17, 2015. Brock Holt - Too Valuable to Start. Baseball is a funny game. On one hand, it seems very simple. Throw ball, hit ball, catch ball. But part of the allure of the game is how complex the game actually is under that surface. This came to mind yet again as I read.

Reading, Running, and Red Sox: Review of David Mitchell's "The Bone Clocks"
http://readingrunningredsox.blogspot.com/2015/01/review-of-david-mitchells-bone-clocks.html
Reading, Running, and Red Sox. Saturday, January 17, 2015. Review of David Mitchell's "The Bone Clocks". David Mitchell is a smart man. He’s written six novels, and like any good postmodernist, all of them have both small and large connections with each other. (More astute readers than I have found them all – check out this Good Reads review. Just leaves me wondering just what exactly that more is. The hyper connectedness of his novels hints at some kind of vague spirituality, of a (benevolent? I found t...

Reading, Running, and Red Sox: November 2014
http://readingrunningredsox.blogspot.com/2014_11_01_archive.html
Reading, Running, and Red Sox. Wednesday, November 19, 2014. Shoe Review: Nike Zoom Fly. Good, if not great, fit for my feet. Roomy toebox, perhaps a tiny bit looser in the heel, but nothing that has been detrimental. There's a touch of support for us pronators. Stiff sole. I'm hoping this loosens up a bit over time, but for the moment I would only want to take this on flat roads or the track,. Light and fast. Feel very speedy in these shoes. Monday, November 17, 2014. Race Report: 2014 Stone Mill 50.

Reading, Running, and Red Sox. Tuesday, June 17, 2014. Running to the Empire State. The itch is getting scratched! I just committed to lacing up for the Empire State Marathon. In Syracuse, NY on October, 19th. I've wanted to give 26.2 another go ever since my first attempt ended with a knee injury and a 12.5 min/mi pace. So my training cycle is starting anew. I’m starting off with a solid base, having averaged 4 runs and 23 miles a week since the MPP half in March. Race Report: Vermont City Marathon.
