Dear Running, I never expected you to become such a defining force in my life, but here we are. You’ve led me to places, people, and experiences I never imagined. You made me tougher. You kept me focused. You taught me to stick it out. I’ve experienced the sunrise along quiet roads and the loud …
Prague is one of the most beautiful cities I’ve had the privilege to visit. Someone convinced me to buy a good old fashion point and shoot camera. I tested out in Prague for the first time while on a run. I must say I had more fun with it than fumbling with my phone to …
I can’t wait to return to Thailand. It is one of a kind! I had 3 hours before I had to leave for the airport, so I dashed out of my hotel, jumped on the metro and I was on my way to the Palace and everything else I could soak in, in the time …
Just sharing some of my pics of Cote D’Azur and Monaco. Most were taken in moving vehicles. Hey, I make the most of every situation! It really is a beautiful place and it is definitely on my list to return to on a real vacation.
I spent some time in the in Nice, France and Monaco recently. One of the first things I did was to look for potential running routes on my way to my hotel. I didn’t have to look very far. One of the nicest running routes was the Promenade des Anglais, which ran parallel to the …
I love to run on the beach in the early mornings as the sun rises. The sounds of the waves lashing against the shore as I play dodge the water never gets old, and it’s not a beach vacation without this practice. Running along the hardened sand, racing to beat the changing tide, watching the … Continue reading

I stood in my hotel lobby watching runners go by, many holding umbrellas, all hunched over trying to keep the wind and rain away from their faces. My hotel lobby was filled with soon to be marathon finishers, many looking out at their fellow marathoners, pensive about the rain. I leaned against a column in … Continue reading
One of my running goals is to run the 6 majors, I am 50% done! My biggest challenge will be to qualify for Boston. Second biggest challenge, getting into the lotteries for London and Berlin. I’ve tried for Berlin 3 times with no success so far, but I shall keep trying. I’m really proud of … Continue reading
Wow, the Tokyo Marathon Expo was so much fun! I’ve never experienced such energy, helpful tips and wackiness before are a race expo. First, the bib pick up was quick and effortless and it was when things started to feel real for me. “This is really happening” “I’m really in Japan to run a marathon” … Continue reading
