A chronicle of mis-adventure within the world of running and triathlon. Wednesday, November 28, 2012. Run All the Miles - Marine Corps Marathon 2012. Four weeks ago, I did something I thought I would never do in a million years. No, I did not eat liver mush with pimento cheese (ick. No offense my southern friends, but I can safely say this will never happen in a gazillion batrillion quadrillion millenion years). I ran a marathon. The Marine Corps Marathon to be exact. Did I really do that? This is where ...

A chronicle of mis-adventure within the world of running and triathlon. Thursday, June 25, 2015. Found on themetapicture.com. Wednesday, June 17, 2015. It happened to Jenn, my sister-in-law, too. Then my niece, Jordyn, and now my big brother, Les. My nephew, Adam, was already a runner; but he's joined in the family too. This past weekend, Jenn did her first sprint triathlon while Les and Adam joined Jenn's swim coach for some relay fun; Les on two wheels and Adam on two feet. How strange and fitting that...

Trikitten: May 2014
http://www.trikitten.com/2014_05_01_archive.html
Friday, May 30, 2014. A treatise on confidence. This treatise is a response to James Haycraft's " Sprintitude. So how does one person oooooze confidence Tuesday night and be completely void of it Wednesday morning? When I asked James this very question the answer came down to what he believes to be true before initiating each action. When sprinting he channels his "sprintitude" but when swimming he enters a downward spiral of doubt and lack of motivation. As a consequence I feel intimidated and subsequen...

Thank you Juan Pablo. Last weekend when I was working at the store, I was witness to a very odd conversation. Which, it is a store that specializes in triathlon gear and what not, so we do have many odd conversations; but this one really tops the podium. The scene fades in. UmWhat exactly are you looking to numb?

A chronicle of mis-adventure within the world of running and triathlon. Wednesday, December 31, 2014. Thursday, December 25, 2014. Instead of presents this year, I decided to do something a little different. And I also realized that not everyone has that. There are many out there on their own; some thriving, some struggling. I thought this year instead of gifts, I would give someone what you all have given me. Opportunity. Wishing you warmth, love and a very Merry Christmas. Thursday, December 18, 2014.

Twilight 5K: The Day I Forgot How Hard 3 Miles Could Be. What to say, what to say. It was a race. We came. We ran. Some of us kicked ass and some of us lost a lung. Or maybe that was just me that lost a lung, I'm not sure. It's possible I still might be in a Papi Queso. So I ask myself, "Self? Last 1 = 7:15.

If there is a unique or rare condition, I'm pretty sure someone on some branch of my family tree has had it. And it seems that my generation is carrying on this family tradition. You see, back in March, I got the news that my sister had been diagnosed with Chiari Malformation. So, what's next? IRONMAN 70....

A chronicle of mis-adventure within the world of running and triathlon. Thursday, February 26, 2015. This was me in the pool. During today's swim set. Wednesday, February 25, 2015. Sorry folks. No Words for today. Apparently the white stuff is going to fly again this evening and all hell is breaking loose. I haven't watched the news. So how do I know, you ask?
