As trail runners, we’re privileged to cover lots of ground in beautiful settings.

Last week, a free bib the Oakland Marathon fell into my lap.

I’m navigating some major shifts in my life, and I’ve turned to journaling as a way to help process all of the feelings that are coming up.

Steep Ravine is one of my favorite places on earth.

My legs were screaming, and my watch was barking at me for being “off course”.

Skyline Boulevard (or California State Route 35) runs from highway 17 in the Santa Cruz Mountains to Daly City, just south of San Francisco.

This week marks 5 years without booze.

I didn’t realize how closely my identity was tied to my running… until I couldn’t run.

Last week, I ran my age in miles for my 41st birthday.

Ever wonder what running for 24 hours feels like?
