I did my first 1/2 marathon with Sole Sisters the inaugural year in 2016 and it was pretty great. But I wasn’t in a big rush to go back there and run it again at least by myself. Don’t think for a second it’s not a great place to run alone because you won’t feel... Continue Reading →
Frostbite Five Miler 2019: Race Recap
I’m not a member of one of those super serious or even semi-serious invite only running clubs in the city.
