Winter Running

‘Tis the season to freeze our tails off while running in what feels like the frozen tundra!  BRR!  If you were cold outside last week while you were running, you will really be cold this week!  The temps are dipping into the single digits at night, making those early morning runs super cold.

Air Force Half Marathon Recap

Saturday, September 15, 2012 was my 9th half marathon. My goal for 2012 was to run 5 half marathons this year and that was #4 for 2012. My last (#5 for the year and #10 total) is on October 21, 2012 here in Columbus.

The Air Force Half Marathon was held in Dayton, Ohio. [...]

Emerald City Half Marathon Recap

Last Sunday I ran the Emerald City Half Marathon for the second time.  Last year I tried to set a PR (personal record) in this race, this year I set out to do it as a training run, as I have 2 more half marathons coming up this fall.  Normally I run my long runs [...]

When I know that I [...]

CocoNutz Fuel

I had the pleasure of reviewing a pretty cool product over the past couple of weeks.  I often speak about the importance of fueling properly before, during and after my workouts and I am always up for new products to help me reach those goals.

The coolest thing about CocoNutz Fuel is the nifty [...]

Review: Zico Coconut Water

Running in the heat and humidity that we have had this summer has definitely taken a toll on my body.  In my quest to stay hydrated this summer, I found and sampled a new-to-me coconut water last week.  Hannah and I took a road trip to Cleveland last week to see my Grandma and I [...]

Review: Honey Stinger Organic Gels

In my quest to find fuel that agrees with my stomach during my runs, I made the switch to Honey Stinger gels.  I have tried the chews before, but not the gels.  The first one I tried was the classic Chocolate.  To be honest, I was not a fan.  I didn’t let that deter me, [...]

Early Morning Steamy Run

Today’s MIT workout run was cancelled due to excessive heat.  Temperatures are supposed to soar to 103 degrees with a heat index of 110.  Being outside for any period of time can be risky, especially when exerting yourself by doing any type of physical activity such as running.  If you must be outside or exercise [...]
