I just officially added another race to my 2015 schedule. I signed up for the Skipjack Run 10K on Sept. 12, 2015. Sure, it’s far in advance, but registration was only $15. I don’t think I’ve ever seen such an affordable 10K. (5Ks generally cost more than that, too.) I am always looking for race … More Skipjack Run 5K and 10K only $15 through end of month

So, for my last really long run before the Rehoboth Beach Seashore Marathon, I decided to run my 20 miles in Chincoteague Island last Saturday, Nov. 15. (I still have a … More Chincoteague Island offers fun atmosphere for 20-miler

For the first time since I began running, I’ve managed to hit the 1,000-mile mark in a year. With a 3-miler on Monday, Nov. 10, I was able to bring this year’s total to just more than 1,002 miles. 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
