There’s less than a week left until the Rehoboth Beach Seashore Marathon.

And I’m not done running for 2014: I still have a marathon ahead, on Dec. 6. I’ve been running … More 1,000-mile goal met for 2014
While I do my fair share of driving across the Bay Bridge, it’s not often that I get to run across it. So, I took that opportunity on Sunday, and participated in the Across the Bay 10K with thousands of other runners. As I believe I noted in a previous blog post on The Road … More Run across the Bay Bridge a unique experience
I run in downtown Salisbury all the time. But Saturday was my first chance to do an urban-style race that was completely within the downtown area.
