September 8, 2016

Reporting in on day 10 of the AMR Heart Rate Training Excellent Half Marathon Plan. Today I covered more ground in 60 minutes at 140bpm (actually 136 bmp) than ever before on this plan. I’m pretty stoked. And I did this in spite of feeling a little under the weather – I actually went home … More September 7, 2016: HR Training Check-in

November 20, 2015: Run Selfies

November 20, 2015

I see some awesome running selfies on Instagram, my preferred social-media platform. And I always wonder how they happen. When I try to do something creative it starts to feel so staged, and then I’m all “well that’s not very authentic to what actually happened on my run” and so I don’t bother going much … More November 20, 2015: Run Selfies

August 7, 2015: Running Easy

August 8, 2015

I’ve been listening to some running podcasts and I keep hearing, over and over, this idea that my training intensity should be split into two categories: really easy, and really challenging. In fact, they recommend that 80% of mileage be run at an easy pace (super easy to carry on a conversation) and 20% of … More August 7, 2015: Running Easy

August 6, 2015: Who reads this?

August 6, 2015

You are reading this because you find my writing amusing and approachable. You are a runner, you are a parent, you work full time (at home or in the office). You are part of Generation X and you embrace that. You are not religious; you might be agnostic (you are an atheist but you keep … More August 6, 2015: Who reads this?

August 3, 2015: Purpose

August 4, 2015

What is the purpose of this blog? I had several goals in mind when I started this blog: To connect with other people who, like me, love to run, but are not necessarily gifted athletes. Just ordinary people striving to do extraordinary things. To share my truths; my goals, my dreams, and my struggles, in … More August 3, 2015: Purpose
