Grab a warm beverage, especially if you live near me in the northeast, as this recap will be long. I have spent the last week trying to figure how/why the wheels came off last Saturday in Richmond. Last year, the week after the Richmond Marathon had taken place, I told my sister that I would… Continue reading Richmond Marathon – Race Recap Friday Expo
People said I was crazy last year when I said I was heading to Roanoke, Virginia to run the Blue Ridge Marathon. Who thinks it’s a good idea to run a marathon that owns – and proudly so – the title “America’s Toughest Road Race?” I do and I loved it so much I’m going… Continue reading Come #runBlueRidge
With the passing of October comes the holidays and only two months left in 2013. November also brings my fall marathon. Busy month but not so busy that I am not going to look back on how I did in October. I am still holding out on race 13 even though September’s Ragnar was an… Continue reading October Review

About 18 months ago, I applied to go back to college and get my MBA but then decided I should wait until the… Continue reading Always Learning
Where, oh where, did I go? Absolutely nowhere. When I started this post, it was all about photographing the inaugural Hambletonian Marathon and Good Time Trotters Relay. Then, I found out I could share via Flickr and moved that post to this other method. So now, where did I go? I went grocery shopping. The… Continue reading Where Did I Go?
Hambletonian Marathon & Good Time Trotters Relay, a set on Flickr. Where, oh where, did I go? Absolutely nowhere. Not this past weekend but the weekend before was very busy. I was longing for a quiet week but that was not to happen due to the activities of the weekend. I photographed at mile 21… Continue reading Hambletonian Marathon & Good Time Trotters Relay
I just read Danielle LaPorte’s latest piece entitled “Break the law, bag the contract, ignore your lawyer, be yourself.” I came away thinking I had definitely done something right over the past almost year. Almost a year ago, I got an email from my soon-to-be ex. You’ll notice that there is a new phrase out… Continue reading What’s Up and How I Reacted?
