Historic Drawbridge Running Festival: Consistent pacing at a new race for me

December 21, 2024

This year, I had the opportunity to pace the Historic Drawbridge Running Festival Half Marathon for the first time. I’ve been interested in this race before, but I hadn’t yet run it, because I always have a busy fall racing season. This year, I did run four November races, including this one. However, it worked … More Historic Drawbridge Running Festival: Consistent pacing at a new race for me

Ocean City Running Festival Half Marathon: Fun with friends, consistent pace and sore feet

November 25, 2024

I had a great half marathon race earlier this year at the Salisbury Half Marathon, so time-wise, I wasn’t sure if the Ocean City Running Festival Half Marathon would compare. And I was a decent amount slower at the Ocean City race, which was Saturday, Nov. 2. However, my race went much better than the inaugural Ocean City race in 2023, which was unseasonably hot. … More Ocean City Running Festival Half Marathon: Fun with friends, consistent pace and sore feet

The Islands Tour was a fun new twist on the Tour de Salisbury

November 16, 2024

I’ve participated in the Tour de Salisbury every year it’s been offered, but this year’s Tour had a new twist — each location was on an island! For two of the islands, you could only get there by boat. Because of the further-away and harder-to-get-to courses, we also had four months to complete The Islands Tour. … More The Islands Tour was a fun new twist on the Tour de Salisbury

Historic Stevensville Distance Festival: A unique distance and fun race

October 28, 2024

I won the sweetest prize at the Mike Sterling 10K

September 23, 2024

I didn’t meet my time goal at the Mike Sterling 10K, but I did walk away with the sweetest prize of all — a Smith Island cake. … More I won the sweetest prize at the Mike Sterling 10K

Dog Days 8K Cross Country Run was a fun throwback to cross country races of the past

September 1, 2024

After officially deciding on the NCR Marathon as my fall marathon, I decided to complete at least four races for the RRCA Maryland Grand Prix this year. … More Dog Days 8K Cross Country Run was a fun throwback to cross country races of the past

The Ben Layton 5K was tough but fun

July 7, 2024

I went into last month’s Ben Layton 5K knowing it would probably be a tough one for me to finish with a fast-for-me time — and it was — but it was a fun gathering of the running community for a good cause. This was my third year in a row running the Ben Layton … More The Ben Layton 5K was tough but fun

REVEL White Mountains Marathon: Downhill does not mean easy

May 20, 2024

I hadn’t even hit four miles at the REVEL White Mountains Marathon, and my quads were hurting as I continued running downhill along the Kancamagus Highway in New Hampshire. I’ve always liked downhill portions at races, but such a steep, extended downhill was new to me. … More REVEL White Mountains Marathon: Downhill does not mean easy

After a successful half marathon at the Salisbury Half Marathon the previous weekend, I headed to Rehoboth Beach the morning of April 14 to pace the 2:45 half marathon group at the Coastal Delaware Running Festival Half Marathon. This Sunday morning race marked my 16th time pacing a half marathon and my fifth time pacing this race. … More Coastal Delaware Running Festival Half Marathon: My Sweet 16 as a pacer
