As Good a Time as Any to Start Blogging Again…
Let’s dust this thing off and start writing again. First: big news. I started my dream job today and I have to tell you about it. Backstory: in September of 2019 my friend Lee-Stuart Evans came to me with an … Continue reading
The Summer of Speed (and a Labor Day debacle to end it!)
Running fast is terrifying. Writing about it is even more terrifying. Especially since running is such a niche sport; even though a half a million of you have finished a marathon last year literally none of you even care about … Continue reading
Moving in a Different Direction for 2018 and Beyond
Flashback: November, 2011… I can distinctly remember finding out about this thing called “ultramarathon”. I had just finished the Coastal Trail Runs’ Chabot Half Marathon, my first trail race. I had been dueling it out with this guy in an … Continue reading

All smiles a few weeks ago at the Skyline 50k. I’m blessed and lucky to be able to do this- just had my first 100-mile week in training (103 to be exact) with 44 of those miles in the Sierras … Continue reading
3 weeks into the LCHF…
…and it’s totally working. Was able to do some really hard runs this past week, including some speed work yesterday (mile repeats to the tune of 6:57, 6:43 & 6:32, which was surprising) and a 10-miler on Sunday with a … Continue reading
14 Days into the LCHF diet…
So here I am, 14 days into this thing. Basically, my old “staples” of bread, pasta, potatoes, rice and anything (everything) sugar (including most fruit, boooo) are gone, totally replaced by more of the following: leafy greens (kale, spinach, salad … Continue reading
Look around you on race day. Those who are busy turning their heads and looking for their competition in the first few miles are too stressed. Those are the folks who aren’t going to have a good day. Karl Meltzer, … Continue reading
