Anyone want to know where I am during my race on Sunday Morning? Will anyone be awake that early even? I have one spot for a phone number on my SMS list!! You’ll find out when I get to the 9k point, and when I finish. Of course, you can also pay to follow me […]

The race is Sunday. 2 runs to go. I am excited. Mostly to finish the race and eat a big brunch afterward. And maybe some ice cream. Is that so wrong? I mean, everyone says not to wear/try anything new for the race, so I can’t be excited for my new outfit/shoes/hat… My Nike+ chip […]

I skipped my run this morning. In an attempt to scare myself back into shape, I actually registered for the race. Yup, you can even find my name on the race’s confirmation page. That’ll learn me.

That’s right. It’s time for me to commit: I’m going to run the Scotiabank Half Marathon on Sunday September 29. Now it’s on the internet, and I have to do it. And for what it’s worth, this hobby is costing me a fortune.
