I will not cry. I will not cry. This is what I kept telling myself as I made my way around the track. The Relay was ending and the laps were complete. 212 in all, 53 miles wearing a pink tutu and I was getting emotional. So many people stayed through the night and were walking one final lap together as a symbol of unity in ...

This is the last few miles of the 2011 Relay For Life. The cartwheel sucked. So I did another one. It sucked too. That's how I roll......

Last year at the Relay For Life in Ozark county there was this dude that decided he would run all night around the track. He ended up running for 10 ½ hours and 54 miles.

When this "running stuff" started 5 years ago, there was no thought at all in my head about EVER running 100 miles. Funny how things can change so drastically in just a few years. I went from an over-weight, out of shape dude that had never ran more than 3 miles in my life to running marathons for fun, tackling 50k's in ...

230 lbs then---------------------180 lbs nowJanuary 16, 2006. The day I lost my mind. The day that I became a new person. The day that changed the future. The day that changed the world..... okay, maybe I'm getting carried away a little. It was a big day for me even if I didn't know it at the time. It was only one ...

I am not a huge fan of looking back. The past is the past. Nothing changes and there are no guarantees that the former glory will ever return. Each day is new, every challenge is different and the focus must always remain on the next goal. With that said- it seems like the right time to reflect on what happened in 2010. It ...
