Had an amazing time at the Ragnar Appalachians Trail event. Our team, Old And In The Way, did great and placed 3rd in the mixed masters category. I was proud to captain these tough nuts. Strength of mind, body and soul for 25 hours

Got pinched between 2 bears on the trail this morning. Big one seemed curious about me. Smaller one was nervous. Eventually the smaller one moved far enough from t by trail to give me an opportunity to get out. Big one was closing the gap.

Almost had a bad experience running down hill on the trail. We both startled each other. Skunk was locked and loaded. But it abstained from violence as I slowly gave it a wide berth. Never know what you’re going to see on the morning runs.

Very humid run this morning.
Caught a mama bear with 4 tiny cubs on my way home from the park.

Enjoying a nice getaway in Colorado. Cow and calf stopped by to eat aspen leaves. Baby had the zoomies for a few minutes.

May 2, 2010 I was in the first wave of the first Tough Mudder. While fun, didn’t expect to ever do it again. Trail races more enjoyable for me and much less expensive. But I did another this weekend with 11 work colleagues. Lots of fun and great teamwork. Nice way to get to know people better

After a brief health issue at the end of last week…back on track this week. Hitting the gym and the trails and feeling normal again.
Going to do a tough mudder for fun with work friends next week.

Awesome race today in Minnewaska St Park. The Gunks are amazing. Rain sucked but made it that much more fun.
Love my trail running friends ♥️

last stretch of the legs before Saturday race in the Gunks. Body is ready. Unfortunately looking like it will be a wet 10 miles. With steep rocky terrain, should be a slow, uncomfortable experience.

Beautiful crisp morning on the trails. Last hard push before race next week. Focus on fresh legs for the next 8 days. Great scenery at every turn.

Well, winter is still hanging on in northern NJ. Almost 5:30am and already triple the forecast

Bear Mt 1/2 marathon today was brutal…and I loved it. Great course with amazing exposure looking over the Hudson River. The elevation included quite a bit of scrambling. Can’t wait to do it again next year…I may be recovered by then 😂

48 hrs before race start.
Looking a little wet and cool (8°C). Course has a significant amount of rock which will likely slow the pace on a wet day. Embracing taper week and ready to go.

Enjoying the beginning of taper week. Cutting mileage back and relaxing the pace.
