Ending out the year with a 10 mile run

2011 has been an amazing year for me.  It started off  with me setting a pr on the Tybee Island half marathon back in February.  My finish time was 1:34:49.  Then in March my childhood dream of climbing Kilimanjaro was fulfilled.  On March 15th I stood on the roof of Africa.  That was quite...

My Cremator Experience

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...

A Light Run at the Rails to Trails and thoughts on Ultra Running

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...

Picture of the Day: Tybee Island Lighthouse Panoramic

  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...

After an 8 Mile Run, Let the Taper Begin

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...

Dancing with Fiddler Crabs

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...

A Very Short Run, a Storm and the Dairy Farm

Thursday went by way too fast.  I had hoped for a 12 mile run but instead had a very short 3.5 mile run.  I had taken the day off from work to get a lot of things taken care of for my visiting family.  You see, my brother, Sam, is getting married this weekend...

I was in Jacksonville most of the day.  When I got home, though, I went for an 4.8 mile run around the neighborhood.  I wore my red bikilas for this run even though, I swore on my mother’s children that I would never run in those red bikilas again.  There could be some dire...
