I am a lifelong endurance athlete with the dual goal of training and racing until my bones turn to dust and sharing that passion with as many people as possible.
I “Get” to Run
This post is almost 2 weeks late, but I'm backdating it so when I read this in 10 years, it'll be as though I posted this on my birthday. Yesterday, July 21st, I biked 90 miles with my friend...
Race Day
No...not THAT race day. The Iron Man is still four weeks away. Today I participated in my team race. After 10 weeks of training, our group did a sprint distance triathlon in Warren, CT. It was...
The Finish Line is in Sight
As I look back on this morning's workout, I am smiling. I know that sounds crazy, but today I realized that I really think I can pull this off. For some insane reason I woke up at 4:30 am today. ...
One Day at a Time
As I've disclosed early on, I've been working with a coach during these last six months. It's been an amazing experience. I've learned so much about training, fueling, hydration, the psychological...
There’s Always a Silver Lining
After my long solo 80-mile bike ride, I ran an hour the next day and then on day three, rode 50 miles home from Lakeville, CT in a mix of sun and rain. I was just under 4 miles from home and I was...

It Was the Best of Runs, It Was the Worst of Runs
Today was the first day that I thought...I might just have what it takes to complete this insane physical challenge. It was not because I ran at a record pace or because I felt like I could go on...
It’s a Privilege
The last 7 days have been a big training week. From Monday June 16-Saturday June 21, I logged about 15 hours of training, my biggest week to date. It started last Monday with a wake-up call of...

Yesterday’s News
In late January, as many regular blog readers know, I was finally given clearance to start swimming again. My first swim was on January 27. Other than noticing that I filled out my bathing suit a bit more, the swim workout itself didn’t feel very different from the...
Full Steam Ahead
While Thursday officially marks my 12-week post-surgery date, today was my 3-month post-op appointment in Tarrytown, NY. Before I go into too many details about today's appointment, let me go back about two weeks. On January 12th, I emailed Courtney Dunavant, Dr....
Goodbye 2011…Hello 2012
Today is Saturday, December 31st...the final day of 2011. I have to say that while I am not big on wishing time away, I am happy to see 2011 end. The year was filled with some wonderful activities, events, and weather (yes, Irene and Historic October Snowstorm, I"m...
