So you want to tackle your first race or a new distance, that’s great! Maybe you’ve already completed one but the whole thing seemed like a disorganized mess or you skipped a lot. Almost all of the work for race day and accomplishing your goals is done in training, after that the race is the... Continue Reading →
After three tough weeks this one was one of the good ones. Even though there was more running, more to do otherwise and it was one of those build and ark type weeks weather wise it was one of those great running weeks. My remaining trainee was back at it and I coached him to... Continue Reading →
I recently started building an instagram presence for my blog, why, doesn’t matter and I’ll get into it. But that means I need content to do that so enter the sweat sweetly runfie!

Last post I threw a ton of shade at drivers and there is plenty to go around. This time we’re on to runners because ya’ll do some stupid stuff out there, me included from time to time, but I digress. We’re not talking about your run of the mill stupid stuff like this stuff. But... Continue Reading →
When you think about taking on a challenge weeks like this week are the ones that keeps you from doing it. It’s also what makes you sound crazy when you tell others about what you’re doing! I broke a trainee, They messed with the schedule (which turned out to be a good thing), it serious... Continue Reading →
