I’m A Lifer
I was thinking the other day about my life as a triathlete. I’ve met a lot of triathletes in my years. Pretty much all of them get into the sport and after a few years stop racing. Maybe it’s because they start having children, maybe it’s because they’ve met all their goals, maybe it’s because ...

Leatherwood Mountains 50 Mile Ultra Trail Race
My first 50 Mile Ultra Race. Boy did I pick a doosey! Luckily I had a friend, Ken Bohn, join me for the journey. Elite runners were calling this race “Mile for mile, the toughest on the east coast. And possibly tougher than Leadville.” That says a lot about how tough this race was. And ...

I wanted to wait to put out my thoughts on what transpired on the 15th of April in Boston. I wanted to do that to collect my thoughts properly, compose myself and to ensure I can do justice to what was a tragedy for not only the city of Boston, but the endurance community as ...
For my unconquerable soul
Like many others, I couldn’t help but think about the devastation in Boston. However, I refuse to allow the attack on my unalienable rights to have me cower from something I love. Runners can be described by an assortment of words, but being weak is not one of them. We are a determined bunch that ...

The Gift of a Day
When you wake up to begin your day, it’s your choice whether or not you will have a positive or negative outlook. You may not be in the best situation, however, that does not have to dictate your attitude.
