Racing in Europe Part 2: arriving is winning
by LHiggs
posted August 3, 2011 at 8:44am
Go back to Part One
I refer to myself as a fake professional runner. This is because maybe 1-2% of my income comes from running, but it takes up closer to 75% of my time and energy. My real job is as a political consultant. My area of expertise is campai...more

by Byline to Finish Line
posted August 1, 2011 at 4:32pm
The GPS system on my phone calculated my drive time from Massachusetts to Buffalo as an 8 hour, 33 minute trip. Luckily for me cruise control and a mix of my favorite tunes cut those 33 minutes right off. Still, I ended the traveling portion of my vacatio...more

Laying on the grass in the cool shade, I could feel the clippings start to cling to my sweat-soaked body. The wave of disappointment engulfed me. I worked so hard in training. So hard during the race. I had great preparation and a solid attitude. So why d...more

by Run Girl Run
posted June 20, 2011 at 10:37pm
I've noticed a trend in my racing. The races that I worry about my time the least are the ones where I tend to have the most fun. It was true in the Baltimore half marathon in the fall and it was definitely true in the 10 Miler this weekend.

It wasn’t until early in the week when the idea really started to take hold. The training plan called for a 15-mile long run on Sunday. The Buffalo Marathon and Half Marathon was being held that day. Hmm. What if I combined the two? And so I checked in ...more

posted May 2, 2011 at 6:30pm
Less than a mile into my final run my core started to ache. I thought about leading with my heart center, breathing and relaxing. I let go of pace and just tried to work hard, yet the ache was still there. Maybe that last run up the hill took more out of ...more

I have a brand new 10 mile PR!
The Cherry Blossom 10 Mile course is probably one of the best places to PR because despite the masses of people running, it is pancake flat except for a small hill at the end.

If I was a horse, I would not be a mudder; I hate getting dirty. Luckily, the course for the 2011 Cross Country National Championships in San Diego was entirely on grass.
