This year I planned a running season that focused mostly on shorter races so I could try to feel what it would be like to run faster with more effort put into each mile. My norm for the last several years has… Read More
I love doing new things. I take my passions and direct them at something new and off we go. Exploring new places and seeing new things out in nature revitalizes me. My photography provides me a guide to doing that. Having goals and objectives in my photography inspires me to go places I probably would not have gone otherwise. When the opportunity to photograph the Sharp Top 25k/50k arose I was excited… Read More
There are so many different things to love about running. I love having a goal that I am training for, but it is also great to be done training for a specific goal or race.

I usually have a standing rule. No races in the winter. It’s not that I don’t run in the winter I just like to choose the conditions in which I run instead of running in whatever winter throws at me on race day.

One photo a day challenge: Day 257. Today was a very fun and interesting day of photography. I went on a short road trip with my dad to check out some photography subjects.

Our goal… Read More
One photo a day challenge: Day 242. I had a fun adventure today. Today I explored a trail that was new to me. Last year when I set out to explore some nature areas in Pennsylvania using my newly acquired Purple Lizard maps I learned about even more places I wanted to explore at some point. I was exploring the Pine Creek Rail Trail when I learned about the Golden Eagle Trail…. Read More
One photo a day challenge: Day 51. I love nature. Being out in nature is one of the best things I am fortunate enough to experience. There are so many natural places I love. I have favorite places that I visit often. And there are places I don’t get to often enough. There are places I dream of going in far off places. There are also places right in my own back… Read More
I have been working more on my overall fitness of late, but my running has been taking more of a back seat than it has in the past. I probably have not run nearly as much as I have in winters past. Especially considering 2 of the past 4 years I have been training for ultras in the spring. Last year I was training for a half marathon PR. This year I… Read More
