Another very positive day today with a solid 2hr run, fully pain free, including hills, and I even decided to push myself a little. I thought I may have felt my calf a few times, but it was so minor that in the end I think I was imagining it. This was the first time… →

Okay, it was only ninety minutes, and on completely flat terrain at a very slow pace, but it was 100% pain free!! It just felt amazing to be back on my feet. Once again, it’s tough to put into words what running means to me…to all runner’s…so I’ve put together this picture montage to fully… →

(The only pic I took all day! Kinda lame, but as you can see the clouds had just cleared, and Bryan Tasaka is one sexy bitch!) My alarm went off at 6am and I was pleasantly surprised to see that not only was it not raining, but that it did not appear to have rained… →

I noticed this quote on a New Balance poster at NSA today while I was sitting there torturing myself, yet again, with ‘The Stick’. “The only thing harder than running, is not running” Pretty much sums it all up right there. Funny thing is that this poster was in the store long before I even… →

I don’t want to use the word ‘spring’ but we’ve been getting damn lucky for the last few weeks. After all the precip we’ve suffered through in the last 18 months it sure would be nice to get an early spring this year! I am currently moving between homes, which for the moment sucks, but… →

I have to pull the plug on racing tomorrow, I can feel pain in my calves while I am simply walking and there’s absolutely no way that I should consider doing a race right now. The hardest part is that I honestly do not think that the calf pain would slow me down, and believe… →

Tried running again today and felt calf pain like I haven’t experienced in weeks. I only made it 35 minutes and then walked home, super bummed and disappointed, but I have a friend in town and we went to the Vancouver International Mountain Film Fest tonight, so still a good day! I want to climb… →

I. M.ust be S.tupid I just paid someone sixty bucks to jab needles into my calves and actually induce cramping into my legs. This service is referred to as I.M.S. (Intramuscular Stimulation) and I was biting the pillow to avoid from actually hitting the nice woman who I had asked to do this to me.… →

After almost a full week without a proper blog posting, I feel like I should write three or four right now…where to begin? Quick cap on the week: We have had over a full week of simply incredible spring like weather. Saturday: It was the party of the year in Squamish, the ‘James Bondage Casino… →
