From tbe new Wawa on 45n Street This type of run right after a race is important to me. My experience has shown that getting to use the well-toiled muscles from the race makes the rest of the week much easier to handle. I'm still sore in places I should be, but it lessens the … Continue reading Crumbs run

The 18th running of this event was a hot one! I attended the Colavita Dinner Friday night at Luigi di Roma with Maria. The meal was great - the transit to the restauarnt in Deerfield Beach is crazy! This is always a test of patience as the drive down on a Friday late afternoon takes … Continue reading 2023 A1A Marathon

Innsbruck, Austria This trip was by happenstance. I offered to travel with Jen Castro if she was accepted into the Berlin Marathon. She suggested I enter the athlete lottery anyway, why not? We BOTH were accepted into the race! Now I had a trip to plan. I have been to Berlin & knew where I'd … Continue reading Germany & Austria – The trip
Getting my 6th unicorn medal from Patty The Patriot's Day weekend away was a tremendous experience. I'll sprinkle some of that info here along with my thoughts on the race, my race buildup and post-run things. The Boston Marathon, in its entirety, is a "cozy" event. Most of what a runner experiences (besides the eight … Continue reading 2022 Boston Marathon Weekend
Only two action shots from this year's photographer - they look similar... It was time to give this race a second try. I had (from covid cancellations) an entry and last year it was a good trip with friends. This year I came with Aaron, Maureen, Jackie and Judy. Aaron and I were scheduled to … Continue reading 2022 Two Rivers Half Marathon
Some good weather ahead helps tune the mental state. I can thrive in cooler weather, especially if we get it on race day. A third Monday in April would be nice! This quick pic taken at Sandhill Crane trailhead - some peculiar foam appearing as if it's ice on our Florida canals... I'll post it … Continue reading Building more than speed
This year's event was thankfully sponsored by Colavita again, which made for a great weekend of fun. The race was held on what I refer to as "the covid course" of two loops on A1A. This route was the substitute used last year when bus transportation and a crowded start area was to be avoided. … Continue reading 2022 A1A Marathon
26.2 - A warm start and a hot finish will accurately describe how this race is remembered. We had a big group from our area in the half marathon, and a few first time marathoners trying this course out, also. Prior to the race, I was involved with the WPBF live broadcast. I was interviewed … Continue reading 2021 Garden of Life Palm Beaches Marathon
