I always enjoy heading out on a pub run. I mean, what’s not to enjoy. Going for a run, which I’m going to do anyway, with a free beer at the end. Throw in a pair of shoes to try out, and I’m always down. Last night’s pub run with Running Warehouse was hosted by Michael Marquez and the Creeky Tiki (Huge thanks!) with Nike bringing the shoes.

I’m a triathlete. I can’t just sit around and do nothing. My body is used to pushing itself 5-6 days/week. There are goals this year. I’m missing races. But mostly, I’m just frustrated sitting and limping. When you’re injured, how do you handle it? For those of you that have lost significant weight, how do you deal with an injury and not put weight back on?

After another close call while running, here’s my list of things for ALL road users to consider. In the end, it all comes down to patience.

You know, 13.1 miles is pretty far to run. Yeah, I know people are running ultra-marathons now, but 13 miles is still a long way. I was reminded of just how far 13 miles is on Sunday during the SLO Half-Marathon.

Had an opportunity last night to try out a pair of Mizuno Wave Evo Cursoris at the Running Warehouse Pub Run.

Yesterday I completed my first Olympic Triathlon. “Wow” is a great word to sum it up. Quick breakdown: Swim 34:03.9, T1 3:42.8, Bike 1:25:56.6, T2 1:19.3, Run 58:41.7 Read more for a full recap.

Had an amazing training session today. Started with an amazingly gorgeous ride that included views of Central Coast wineries and then along the coast for stunning views of the ocean. While cold (by my standards), I killed the 35 miles in 2 hours, but that’s when the real fun begins. Quick removal of leg warmers […]

The run tonight was great, not Les Mis 🙂 I really worked to not over run my zones and just do what was on schedule. That’s tough some days, especially when I’m feeling good.

I had an amazing run with the Thursday running group over at Running Warehouse. It’s a nice group, but one in which I’m typically pulling up the rear.

Decided to hit the road for 9 miles today. As I passed along a large open field, two horses came up wanting to be pet… or something.
