The Stubborn Tortoise

The Stubborn Tortoise

People often ask me why I love trail running. It's all about the stories. You meet a different kind of person on the trails: connects with nature, doesn't mind slowing down if someone is in need, says, "Good job, runner." Trail runners are competitive, for sure. But it's also egalitarian. Seldom will you find the elites separated from the regular folk. Everyone gets lost at some point. Everyone falls. These are our badges of passage. This is my take on trail culture. Logo: Kevin Stich Music: "Our Sky," by Overland (via Free Music Archive) Contact

Ironing Out the Kinks in the Road

I discovered that if I have a plan, I can get through a long run a lot easier. Some days, I don't have a plan, which is a surefire way of it turning into a chaotic experience. Not having a plan has it...

Trying to Get That Groove Back -- Kind of Personal.

Finally Out of the Closet
