Sehgahunda Trail Marathon: The Final Leg
Sitting here, 1 week away from the biggest race and run of my life, I can’t help but feel nervous. I trained hard for my first marathon last year, The Rochester Marathon, but weeks later it had left me unfulfilled. I needed to do something bigger…
Training Report: 4/30 – 5/6/2012
A continuation of my journeys in running, and more specifically what do I do now that my marathon has ended. I need to get back to actually writing down my thoughts on my training as it happens rather than just recapping in retrospect. Most of these are however from my Dailymile recap, which works also. Monday April 30 [...]

Race Report: SCWT#6
Last night was the final series race in the Fleet Feet Snow Cheap Winter Series, and it was “interesting”. I had a plan of wanting to go into this race at close to 100% but after a 15mi/3hr trail run on Sunday, speed-workout session on Tuesday and a crappy morning run, I was left to [...]

Race Report: SCWT #3
Last night was the third race in the Snow Cheap Winter Trail series at Cobb’s Hill. As weird as this weather has been I at least half expected snow to finally be a factor in the race this time, considering we got a healthy dose over the weekend (see: Freezeroo #3). Rochester’s weather system had [...]
Race Recap: Freezeroo #3 – Don Curran 5K
There are some races that make you go “Yea!” and others yet that make you jump for joy. This was a mix for both. I set out with a plan to do a 21:30 so I can increase my VDOT training, but scratched that when the snow came. There was a TON of snow out [...]

Race Recap: Fairport Firecracker Five Mile
This is just a small recap of the race, for further enjoyment and pleasure, you should come out, watch and cheer. Or better yet, strap on a pair of shoes and RUN! On your mark… I had signed up for this race a while back not knowing how I would (of course) be feeling this [...]
