- The Downside to Eating Healthy
So I’ve been eating relatively well since the end of July. I can’t believe that I’ve gone this long on low-sodium, low simple sugar, and as little processed food as possible.

New York City Marathon was my dream race ever since I started running seriously. When I wrote the ABOUT page on this little blog over 3 years ago that NYC Marathon was on the top of my wish list of races, it was a distant and impossible dream. Now, as race day draws near, I [...]
- TBR Jr. Gets Serious
“I want to train for Southridge Run.” That’s what my son told me several days ago. Oh boy, you should’ve seen the smile on my face! The thing is, I have no clue how to train a 9-year old. Initially, when TBR Jr. would sign up for fun runs, we would run/walk around the village [...]
