At my second half marathon ever (the Cayman Islands Half Marathon, December 2014), I met someone who was an invited speaker at packet pick up and who also ran the half marathon on race day. As a new runner, I was very unfamiliar with races, important people, major events and just an awful lot about the sport…
It’s been a while since I’ve written here, and to be honest, once I started the travels for my last couple races, I just didn’t have the time or the right device to do the few blog posts I planned to do justice. So my apologies for the delay, but I hope you enjoy reading…
I know I’ve been rather slack about blogging lately, and it is more a reflection on how busy I’ve been rather than not having much to say. The good thing is that I now have some more time and have thought of some new blog topics, so I should be back to updating things on…

Sorry it has taken so long to get this together…it has been almost two weeks since I ran the Williams Route 66 Marathon (and Centre of the Universe 0.3 mi detour!), and it is well past time to get thoughts down. But with being on the road and enjoying the Thanksgiving holiday with family, well,…
I had an incredible weekend in Richmond, most of which had nothing to do with my personal race. There are so many things I want to blog about from the weekend, so I figured that I should break it into a few blogs. The easiest to write is a race recap, so I’ll begin with…
This post is a bit overdue, but better late than never, in my opinion. After Sunday’s marathon, I was busy with travelling and catching up on ‘real life,’ and this post had been pushed to the wayside. For all those who follow my blog, you know that I made the decision to start the Marine…
I have now been able to get a picture with Bart Yasso on two occasions. I really had no idea who he was at the first race, the Cayman Islands Half Marathon in December 2014, when I heard him speak, although I had a pretty good idea of his importance in the running world after…
