It is about time that I updated this list of epic awesomeness: first and fastest running adventures; and milestones of ultra running races (at bottom).

I knocked another one off my bucket list this week.  Yes, I finally dug a snow cave and slept in it overnight.

This may seem like an odd thing for someone to want to do.  But ever since my buddy Paul Quinn shared a story about the night he spent in a relatively comfy hole in the snow as a blizzard raged above his head, I've wanted to do the same.

Report: Spaghetti Trees 2013

I registered for this years Knee Knacker which will also be my first Ultra marathon (so much for picking an easy one to start out).

Going back to about 2004 I realized that I was in horrible shape and needed to do something about this. In Jan 2005 I joined my first Sun Run clinic hosted at the False Creek Comm Centre. I managed to drag myself through my first 10 K run.

As I stuck with this I found myself improving to the point where I completed 2 Scotia Bank 1/2 marathons.

In 2011 I found life got in the way and for the last half of the year I didn't run a step. Looking in the mirror it's quite evident that I had stopped running.
