It’s been a while since I’ve written about my running adventures, and so much has happened. But to be frank, I got a little lazy. Since I last posted, I ran the London Marathon and Berlin, NYC, I ran dozens of halfs (one where I fainted at the end-true story bro), but they were all … Continue reading

Tokyo Marathon – The Expo
Wow, the Tokyo Marathon Expo was so much fun! I’ve never experienced such energy, helpful tips and wackiness before are a race expo. First, the bib pick up was quick and effortless and it was when things started to feel real for me. “This is really happening” “I’m really in Japan to run a marathon” … Continue reading
Where I went in 2014
Wow, where did 2014 go? I started the year like most people did, with plans, goals, wishes, dreams and renewed sense of hope and determination.

Oh Sandy
Well, even if I didn’t want to taper, Sandy has taken care of that. I ran my last long run yesterday, a short 10 miler. I was suppose to run for 13, but I was no match for the wind and neither were the trees. So I thought it was best to quit while I … Continue reading
Fall Viewing
During one of my last long runs, I saw such beauty in the early morning fog and changing colors of the trees that really moved me. I returned to my route and snapped these pics later in the day. I wish I was able to capture the beauty that I saw during this run. It … Continue reading
