Carlsbad Half Marathon
So I finished my first half marathon with my son. I don’t know if I will be doing a full marathon with him again. I think he might have to be a lot older and know what he is getting into. The run was good overall. I did notice some discomfort in my [...]

It has been really busy. I haven’t gotten in a workout since Sunday. Today is going to be a run day. I need to get this run in. It is only 5 miles. I hope I can do it tonight.
The Shaun T Insanity event is coming to San Diego. He will be here on November [...]

Well, I had to return my Vibram Bikilas. The bottom portion of the sole was separating from the top. I am glad that REI had a 100% return policy on everything that you buy there. I walked in and they tried to see if they could get me an exchange but that didn’t work so [...]

So I decided to run outside since I was able to get off work a little early. I had a partner with me that rode his bike. It was good to get outside and on the bike. I think running with my Vibram Bikilas outside is much better than the treadmill. I feel more slower [...]

So I decided that it was going to be my first day of training for the Carlsbad Half Marathon. I was only able to run on the treadmill because it was cold and wet outside. I started with a .25 mile walk and then continued with some stretching. My left achiles feels tight. I stretched [...]

Wow, Insanity is Hard.
I can’t believe that I was able to do this back last year. I remember it being so much easier than just the one day that I was able to do this past friday. I recommend so many things to newcomers and people that are interested in trying Insanity. I understand a [...]

I love to go running
I knew that running could be this tough again. It was difficult to run 4 miles on Tuesday and I knew that I wanted it more than anything. I know I will have to wait till I can use the vibrams again to run but I know the way that I [...]

I woke up about 5:30 this morning. I had a good breakfast. Just some cereal. I was out the door about 6:15 and off to Solana Beach. This was a new location for me to start at. It was only 8 miles. It seems so short and even though the group wasn’t as large as [...]
