- Runner’s Breakfast at Paul Calvin’s Deli
At the Forbes Town Center, just a few minutes drive (or run) from NBC Tent where races are commonly held, lies a quaint, little deli called PAUL CALVIN’S DELI. Partly-owned by a runner, this deli is open early in the morning after a race to serve the post-race requirements of crazy, hungry runners. They serve [...]
- Condura Mania
Who’s joining Condura? Or, maybe one should ask: Who’s NOT joining Condura?

- Product Review: Nike Zoom Sister One+
I was fortunate enough to be invited by Gary Mercado of Kikay Exchange to test a new product: the Nike Zoom Sister One+.
