Idiots Running Club

100 Days…….

On May 2nd of this year, I logged a 10 mile run on the treadmill. It was nothing special just another run...... I had no idea that it would be the start of a 100 day – 700 mile runstreak. Not sure why I would start a “streak” considering the knee issue that showed up during the Ouachita 50 miler two weeks prior and ... More

I Will Not Cry……

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 ... More

Real Men Wear Pink Relay For Life Ozark County 2011

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...... More

Real Men Wear Pink…. Maybe

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. He ran about 10 of these miles while wearing a pink tutu. Why? Because he is an idiot...... and those 10 miles raised $100 for the American Cancer ... More

The Honor Scroll- Covering the Distance

There is a quote, by an unknown author, that says, "There is no telling how many miles you will have to run while chasing a dream." I can't begin to explain how powerful these words are to me. I used to think the "dream" was about ME and MY desires. I thought it was about winning. About reaching a high level of endurance ... More

The Next 50 Miles…….

Here we go again........On April 16th, I will be running in the Ouachita 50 Mile Trail Race in Little Rock, AR for the Second Annual Honor Scroll Run. Just like last year, the “Honor Scroll” will bear the names of those that have had or been diagnosed with Cancer. This event made an impact last year and attracted some ... More

Expanding the Limits- Rocky Raccoon 100

A few weeks ago, I was on a training run with a friend. As usual on a long run, the topic of discussion was scattered and all over the place. At one point along the way, the subject of limits came up. In a joking manner, he stated -A man has got to know his limitations. Yep. I agree. But you will never know your limitat... More

Rocky Raccoon 100 Miler 2011

This video is pretty long- but really, it WAS 100 miles. I will write a race report soon but this pretty much tells the story. More

Just a little change…..

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 ... More
