Although I went to bed exhilarated by the Olympic Trials and the WeRunSocial meet up, I woke up on race day with mixed feelings. While I was excited to be running my first full marathon, there was a battle going on inside my head. Although I was confident that I could cover the distance and … More LA Marathon Weekend Part 2
I never entertained the thought of finishing a marathon a few years ago. But on Valentine’s Day, I did just that. Here is part 1 of a long overdue race recap. I was pretty excited to drive up to the Expo on Saturday morning. Not only was I going to pick up my bib, but I … More LA Marathon Weekend Part 1
So, a couple of months ago I thought it would be a good idea to sign up for the LA Marathon. I figured that it’s about time that I run a full marathon since I’ve got a few half marathons under my belt now. Plus, who knows how long it will be before my body … More I’ve Lost My Mojo

Here’s part two of of my day on the trails last weekend. I was doing my FCT treatment so I had to be outdoors all day, avoiding EMFs as much as possible. On Sunday, after running and having brunch with UnitedLA I had a couple of options: I could relax, sit under a tree, and … More Trail Mix Deluxe Part 2: Go Take a Hike!
Sunday was another day out on the trails. Only this time, I’d be on foot instead of two wheels. I was scheduled to do my fourth round of FCT treatment on Sunday so I needed to be outdoors, try to avoid EMFs, and take it easy. Well, two out of the three is not bad, right? I … More Trail Mix Deluxe Part 1: The Hills Are Alive
Father’s Day came early this year. Typically, I do long runs on Saturday but when my buddy Julian is able to meet up I’m down for anything active.
