I'm back to running all of my mid-week runs on the treadmill. And last week I even had to run one of my weekend runs on the 'mill. B...

I didn't race on Saturday. Not that I had firm plans to do so, I just kinda wanted to. There's a 5K that takes place 5 minutes f...

We were away this past weekend, enjoying the summer with family at Sacandaga Lake. Fishing! Playing! Greedy ducks! It was...

This has been one hot week of running. To beat the heat, I ran at 8:30pm on Monday and 8pm on Tuesday. Both nights were still pretty warm, b...

First things first . . . I mentioned before that I am behind and, yeah, it's still true. I meant to post the Subway gift card winner a...
