Atta Boy Laminator...it just goes to show how racing well at a certain race distance requires specific training--despite many years of quality base training....
I did a race Saturday night. I saw something in this race I had never seen before. It was a first time race, great course (very hallenging) but they had1st...
As a frequent race volunteer I realize that runners are relying on me to do my job as well as possible. For my entry fee I expect nothing less when I am...
Had an almost identical situation occur in a race over which I was the overall chairman last month, and I might have had the best chance to prevent the problem...
It wouldn't have been the extra .2 that bothered me, it would be the fact that they "corrected" the course mid-race so that not everyone ended up running the...
Hey, A day just for us! I did (OK, walked, but at a 11:25 pace, which is actually quite awesome considering how far i've come!!) 3.0 miles today. PT later...
I experienced something similar this spring at a first time event. It's a first time 100miler trail ultra, organized by runners but not ultra runners. So you...
Thanks everyone. It was a great race. Willie, funny you ask. I have signed up for a 5k on July 5. That's why I was asking Doc to put together a Doctorval...
As I have gotten older (and accumulated more than enough hardware for one lifetime), I've mellowed, I suppose: A Saturday morning spent running with friends,...
Congratulations on the new PR Lam! Wow, you work harder in a 39 minute race than I do all week! I never knew there was so much to it. You actually remember...
Hello fellow runners!!! On Sunday I participated in the first ever Toronto Womens Half Marathon in Toronto's Sunnybrook park. This was the race in which I was...

... Well, ya know, I am good at pushing buttons. :-) For the first time ever, I ran the race holding the watch in my right hand, instead of wearing it on my...
Today, I participated in the 2 1/2 mile run on the campus of Indiana University - South Bend. It was held by the Student Activities Program. There were about...

On Sat. I ran the Sunburst 1/2 mara in South Bend, IN. I won the 60-64 AG last year in 1:27. I have run about 200 less miles in training this year so I was a...
Willie & Kurt: Sorry to keep you guys guessing at whether or not I can make it to the Boilermaker this July. Short story: In Aug, I was asked to take a "fill...
Congrats on another win, Doc! I'd be interested in the nemesis's race reports these days, he must really be bumming when he sees you arrive! It's a fun...
That's a great time DOC and, had you not suffered those last few miles, a sub 1:30 was in the cards. I know your racing year is already planned but I have it...
DOC: Evidently work and women come first for you. Congrats on both. Glad to see your priorities are in order! Check my earlier comments about Niagara and... ...
