Christmas in New York City
Last weekend I traveled to NYC to see all of the Christmas decorations, Rockefeller Center, and the famous NYC Christmas Tree. As an added bonus I also was able to visit with my daughter who attends school in New York. Based on the crowds I was not the only one with this idea. It was tough going anywhere near Rockefeller Center. This didn’t bother ...Dec 15 -
Chicago Marathon…26.2 Miles is a Long Way!
Earlier this year I was looking for motivation and decided to enter me and my wife in the Chicago Marathon lottery. This race has always been on our bucket list and I was sure that if we were picked we would be highly motivated to train for this event. As luck would have it at the end of April we were both selected to run. Great news! Fast forwa ...Oct 15 -
Running the Noland Trail
Last weekend I was filming a race in Newport News, VA and took the opportunity to run in a couple of cool spots. I filmed Race 13.1 Newport News (video not available yet) and the course passed by the Noland Trail. This looked like a great place to check out so I decided to run the trail. The Noland Trail is a 5 mile loop that completely circles ...Apr 03 -

My First Ten Mile Race
I recently ran the Moose on the Loose 10 Mile Trail Run in Nashua, New Hampshire. This was the longest race I've run to date, and I chose to run it in preparation for a 1/2 marathon I've been training for in September. Going into the race, I set a goal of stopping at every water station and taking a drink while walking a couple of steps. In the ...Aug 25 -

Yankee Homecoming 10 Miler 2014 Race Report
On Tuesday, July 29th I ran one of my favorite road races, The Yankee Homecoming 10 Miler in Newburyport, MA. It was the 8th time I've run the race and while not my fastest 10 miler, I was happy with my 1:19:09. Because this event is run in the evening and it's held in the middle of the summer it's often a very warm night. However, 2014 was a be ...Jul 31 -

One of my favorite racing events of the year is the John Carson 4th of July Road Race in Chelmsford, Massachusetts.

Cold Weather Running
When the temperatures drop into the teens, running outside can be uncomfortable. Many runners opt to use a treadmill when the mercury sinks that low. Being a runner in New England I try to avoid the treadmill whenever possible. I really don't enjoy it. When I saw that the weather forecast for Sunday morning was calling for temps in the l ...Jan 30 -

How Having a Baby Changed My Body
Let me start off by saying that for the first 29 years of my life, I was skinny. Skinny and lazy. Life was good – wake up and eat Lucky Charms for breakfast, have a burger for lunch, BLT (don’t you dare hold the mayo) for dinner and never even think about working out kept my 5 foot 3 inch frame at about 105 lbs. Before you start hating me, I will ...Jul 23 -
