It’s for runners too! It is a bit narrow, and can get crowded, and, in light of COVID-19 there’s little room to maneuver. Here are some sights from the new path, enjoyed, by runners, cyclists, walkers, no dogs allowed. It is a narrow path with little shade depending on the time of day. All in …
Prague is one of the most beautiful cities I’ve had the privilege to visit. Someone convinced me to buy a good old fashion point and shoot camera. I tested out in Prague for the first time while on a run. I must say I had more fun with it than fumbling with my phone to …
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” …
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. My goal every year is to see at least one new place. 2014 was spectacular for that! I started in SE Asia and ended somewhere in Canada. In between, I …
I can’t wait to return to Thailand. It is one of a kind! I had 3 hours before I had to leave for the airport, so I dashed out of my hotel, jumped on the metro and I was on my way to the Palace and everything else I could soak in, in the time …
Just sharing some of my pics of Cote D’Azur and Monaco. Most were taken in moving vehicles. Hey, I make the most of every situation! It really is a beautiful place and it is definitely on my list to return to on a real vacation.
I spent some time in the in Nice, France and Monaco recently. One of the first things I did was to look for potential running routes on my way to my hotel. I didn’t have to look very far. One of the nicest running routes was the Promenade des Anglais, which ran parallel to the …
So much to share! But first I’ll start with running in Singapore. First thing to know, running in Singapore should generally start before the sun fully rises. It is definitely a running city. I started by asking my hotel concierge for a suggested running route and they had a handy map with different routes on … Continue reading

I can point to the exact moment when I decided to run the NYC marathon. It was 2009 when Paula Radcliffe ran passed me near mile 8 of the NYC Marathon route. I came out early to watch the elites run, while gearing up to cheer a friend on, as she also ran the marathon … Continue reading

I got a chance to preview Nike’s Innovation Space a few weeks ago. I run with the run clubs that are associated with Nike, and was invited through to view the space through the run club. I didn’t know what to expect, but walked away impressed by their products but by their stealth marketing! It … Continue reading
Yes, running is indeed a contact sport. You make contact with tree roots, wet leaves, puddles, children, dogs, cars, bikes, rocks, string, potholes, and even imaginary objects that you think are in your way. I had a spectacular fall a few weeks ago, while running in the early morning. It happened on a path that … Continue reading
The first leg of my 10 day trip brought me to Milan, the fashion capital of Italy. I did not get a chance to run while in Milan. I was too jet lagged to function and focus well on why I was actually there, so the little free time I had was spent sleeping in … Continue reading
I came, I ran, I will do it again Continue reading
I took a quick trip to the town of Rye Brook in upstate New York recently and I had the opportunity to go for a run in Crawford Park. I was in the company of much faster, more seasoned runner (as usual), but I enjoyed the short, and hilly course. Turns out we didn’t cover … Continue reading
