Sep 4, 2011 • Running is my form of meditation. No matter how many frustrations are around me, I can always slip on my running shoes and trail off to lala land. Depending on my mood, I’ll either take it easy or wreak mayhem. I wouldn’t say that I’m a “running riot,” but I do run in extremely aggressive areas:...

Jun 10, 2011 • Pasta Parties, a running classic. If you’ve ever run a mile, or if you’re Italian, you know what I’m talking about. A Pasta Party is a gathering where runners carb up the night before a race. Since I’m not a fan of pasta, though, I’ve been getting my carbs from pizza and beer–not exactly the...

May 16, 2011 • http://www.getoutsidegi.com/ My next race I am training for is The North Face 10k on Governors Island. It will be three loops around the edge of the island with some random zigzags throughout. I went to Governors Island last summer and I remember it being pretty flat with random hills. Since the course is flat it will be a...

May 10, 2011 • Let me first start this post with a Holy Crap! The gun went off and there was a immediate dash to the front, probably the biggest rookie mistake out there but I was there neck in neck with the best of them. I knew I was in trouble when the race official screamed to me, “See you in 15mins.” I...

Apr 1, 2011 • Life catches up in one way or another and we all end up skipping a run here and there. We have our excuses to justify our extra days off. Let’s be honest, people, we aren’t saints, so let’s cut the fat and say why we are really missing our runs. I gathered ten of the...

Feb 27, 2011 • Saucony ProGrid Kinvara from Saucony on Vimeo. These bad boys are my newest running sneakers, they are minimalist sneakers. That’s right I am paying more for less of a sneaker. They are the in-between stages of sneakers and no sneakers. It became the hot running trend last year. People left their sneakers at home...

Feb 20, 2011 • FINALLY, a running sponsorship that has nothing to do with health and fitness. The ad is shot well and very inspirational but I don’t entirely understand the connection between the world record holder Haile Gebrselassie and Johnnie Walker. If he ever walked anywhere he wouldn’t be a successful runner. This ad is a huge disconnect...
