This evening I ran 3.61 miles. The day before yesterday I ran 2.5 miles. And, I did these runs in my old red bikilas that I said I would never ever run in again. Does that make me a liar or a politician? I don’t know. It is still so stinking hot outside. At the…
Today was the first day that I’ve exercised since my big fail on Saturday, July 23rd in the CrematorUltra 50. Instead of running today I went to the Island’s Ymca and did weight training. The weather outside was dreary but I was so tempted to run in the rain. Running in the rain is quite…
Well, The CrematorUltra 50 is over and there is no place for me to share in the bragging rights of having finished an incredibly tough race. Yeah, that’s right, – I got a big DNF. I didn’t finish the race. I called it quits around the 30 mile mark. The heat was the 800 pound…
The night before Cremator and all through the house, I was scarfing down food and busy as a mouse… A poet, I am not but tonight, I’m tying up loose ends and preparing for the CrematorUltra 50. I’m leaving the house at 5:00am to drive to Hilton Head Island. At 6:00 am, the weigh-ins…
I ran 5.5 miles at the rails to trails today. I did the run around 7:00pm and it was still pretty darn hot but at least it was windy. The windy conditions kept the mosquitoes away and added a little comfort. I didn’t map the run because the route is just a straight line to…
The picture of the day is of the TimBurtonTree in the dairy farm. I call the tree the TimBurtonTree because it looks like something out of one of his movies and, I’m a big fan of Burton’s films…most of them but not all. Somebody hung some tires on the tree recently. I was certain that…
I have two people to crew me for the Cremator Ultra! I am so excited and grateful! Thank you, Sam and Delora! Date: Saturday July 23, 2011 Start time: 7:00 am eastern standard time at the Bike Doctor Shop, Hilton Head Mandatory Pre-race briefing and packet pick-up: Friday, July 22, 2011, 6:00pm at the Palmetto…
It’s been a while since I’ve posted a picture of the day. Sorry about that. Today’s picture of the day is actually four pictures merged into one panoramic of Tybee Island and her infamous lighthouse. Yeah. My brother, Sam, married this weekend and the wedding and reception was at North Tybee Island overlooking the…
Yesterday, I ran without a camera. Today, I ran without my iphone. Weird stuff going on. Must be the full moon. I did an 8.84 mile in the middle of the day today. It was great to get out there and run during a hot, sunny day. And, to think that I did not even…
I don’t think I’m exaggerating when I say that I think I must of seen at least 1 billion fiddler crabs as I ran a couple of trails in the dairy farm this afternoon! They were everywhere! I literally had to hop-scotch through most of the trails to avoid stepping on them. A young couple…
