Get a Blog or Get a Life

I have a buddy who calls himself a blogger.  While I may have a blog, I don't consider myself a blogger when compared to this buddy.  You see, my buddy is always blogging. 

I don't blog as much as I could, should and ought to.  However, I do work a 60-80 hour week, I make time for friends and family and I play outside a bit.  It's a question of priorities.

Pacing Wader - A New Adventure

Silver BuckleThe Western States 100-Mile endurance Run is the granddaddy of all 100-mile runs.  It's such a popular race, there is a lottery to get in.

Capilano Canyon Night Run - A Few Changes

Capilano Night Run - Preview

This Saturday is coming at us like a freight train. I figured it would be a good idea to run the course before I host the run so as to note any last minute hiccups.

It's Sunday morning at 9:00.  I'm just coming off a cold.  Still feeling it, but it's shaping up to be a crisp, sunny day and I really want to get back on the running program.  My buddy Troy calls, "Want to go out for an hour on the snowshoes on Cypress?"  Humm.  That sounds not too aggressive and just about what the doctor ordered.

Vancouver's Stanley Park Trails

Stanley Park Trails
On Thursday 14 December 06, a howler of a storm ripped through Vancouver's Stanley Park.  Winds of 115-120 kilometers/hour blasted the park snapping and uprooting 3,000 trees and causing extensive damage to the famous seawall trail.

This coming Monday 1 January 2007, I host the 14th annual »

The Five (5) Minute Rule

Tomorrow at 7:00 am we go on a road trip.  

This particular road trip is from the Vancouver, BC area to the Galbraith Mountain Tour, a trail run near Bellingham, Washington.  This road trip will have many unique qualities about it.  These qualities include the route we take, the time we leave, the cast of characters who will be going on the trip and so on. 

Everything You've Always Wanted to Know About 100-Milers (But Were Afraid to Ask)

I was recently volunteered to moderate a discussion panel at an upcoming Club Fat Ass speaker event.  The topic is the Western States 100-Mile Endurance run and how to run a 100-mile run

With the Western States lottery coming up in a few weeks and a stellar panel of Western States finishers assembled to share their knowledge, interest in the speaker evening is running high.
