- Hunting for a Hydration Belt
I’ve had my Amphipod Runlite 4 for almost two years now. We’ve been through it all together—big and small races, training runs, and even runs abroad…
- New Balance Power Run on Sept. 27
I attended the press conference of the New Balance Power Run – Raising Hope slated for Sept. 27, 2009 at California Pizza Kitchen yesterday…
- Looney Tunes Active Fun Run on Aug. 30
I realized last week that I’ll be out of town for this much-awaited race for our family. I felt awful about it, but thankfully after a brief explanation, the kids understood…
