Last Saturday I retired my red bikilas after having logged 705 miles on them. Those were my first bikilas and they have been with me approximately one year one month. Those red bikilas went with me to the very top of Kilimanjaro, the roof of Africa last year. I ran my fastest ever half...
As I was doing my run yesterday I started to think about a runner’s etiquette. Is there such a thing? There must be and I’m willing to bet that most of us runners follow some kind of a runner’s etiquette or code of conduct even if we do not give it an actual name....
It was Mr. Gypy’s tenth birthday on Wednesday, January 26th. My little buddy is getting older and I don’t like it but that’s the way it is. We live, we grow old and the cycle goes on. Mr. Gypsy came into my life in July 2010 and has enriched my life since. I love...
This weather we’re having in January is excellent…not hot, not cold…just right –for running. The temperature during the run this evening was a very pleasant 62 degrees. My run this evening was 5.43 miles through my hood. The traffic was a bit hairy but I still enjoyed the run but had to be doubly...
Well, tonight I added a little more mileage to my 2012 treadmill total. I ran 3.11 miles on a startrac treadmill at the Island’s Ymca. I really like those treadmills. They are super nice. The run tonight was tough. I started off slow but after a few minutes I began to crank the speed...
I’m still not feeling 100% but tonight’s 4.8 mile run did me a lot of good. One nice thing, my left calf only bothered me for about a mile. My right hip did not bother me at all and neither did my left ankle! Woo hoo! Another good thing, it was a beautiful evening...
Once again I’m nursing an injury…I mean two injuries. My left calf is very tender and tight. My right hip at the joint has been hurting for the past week. Whenever my right leg rises up and my left foot is pushing off the ground the front of my right hip aches deeply. It’s...
This is my wonderful Australian Shepherd, Mr. Gypsy, the best dog in the world. He came into my life on July 3rd 2010, as an 8 year old rescue. Prior to that he spent seven months with Bill and Kathy Smith who are two amazing people with great big hearts. Bill and Kathy, even...
Tonight’s run was a light-paced 4.22 miles in Whitemarsh Island. I ran with my trusty yellow reflective Nathan vest and red bikilas. I started the run with my running buddy, Nelson, but soon I pulled ahead and the rest of the run felt like I was running by myself. Nelson and I did talk...
Yesterday I did not run because I was just lazy. Tonight I made up for yesterday’s slackness and ran 6.35 miles at the rails to trails. I met up with a friend of mine, Nelson, at 5:30 and we headed west on the trail toward the shrine and the prayer flags. Nelson started off...
