Welcome to my Blog page. Here, we can discuss the latest running technologies, rumors, activities and more! We can talk about books for runners, especially marathon running books and training books.
Father’s Day 5k - Absolutely perfect weather for today’s race. No real goals other than finishing. My training has been way off for the past few months, so I didn’t expect much. Despite this, I was able to win my age group (1/11) and wife Jeanne, placed second in her age group. All in all a good day.
Break time - 2025 was a long racing season. I had some great experiences and met a ton of wonderful people, running everything from 5k's to 140-milers. People often ask me what my favorite distance is. The short answer: I really don't have a favorite - it's like saying you have a favorite child. I'm just happy to be out there doing what I love to do.
Broomfield Turkey Day 5k - I woke up with a sore throat today (but feel fine now). The skies were sunny and the temperature was around 35 degrees at the start. It was difficult to make my way through so many runners on a narrow course. There were over 2,300 runners in the 5k and almost 400 in the 10k.
Now, through December 31st, I'm offering "Running for the Average Joe" at 50% off on both the paperback and hardcover editions.
