Since I started running 2 years ago, I have constantly looked for ways to share this running "idiocracy" with all those around me. I have forced many of my closest friends and family members to lace up their shoes and hit the trails with me for an early morning jaunt. I have challenged coworkers to meet me after ...

April Wilson Sometimes Running Stinks....True but the 2012 Skunk Run didn't stink. I think everybody had fun. There were more than a few smiles even though the temps got above 80 degrees.

I love running outside! While running outside, my thoughts are so positive: Thank you God for giving me the ability to run. Thank you God for letting me live in the beautiful Ozarks. I love the trees, the creeks, the rocks. Now, running on the treadmill is a different story. While on the treadmill my thoughts ...

I purchased the 1BandID last September and LOVE it. At first, I thought it would bother my wrist on a long run. This fear was 100% eliminated after running a 50 miler two weeks later. This race was my reason for the purchase. Fifty miles along old Route 66 was just begging to get hit by a car. Or truck. ...
