“Start stuff. If you believe in something, just start it.” —Mary Wittenberg It was an honor to host this live show at New York Road Runners the day before the United Airlines NYC Half.

Does A PR Last A Lifetime?
The first few years of racing are, in my opinion, the best. At least for me they were. When I ran my first race — the FITNESS Mind, Body & Spirit Games 4-mile race in Central Park in 2008 — I was clueless about running and had no idea what to expect from this thing […]
Thankful Things Thursday: I Love Sweat-Wicking Apparel, Springtime & Sitting On The Subway
Thankful Things Thursday always seems to come around when we need it most, doesn’t it? I have spent the past two days cooped up in my apartment with little contact with the outside world. OK, that’s a lie. I Tweeted a lot. Twitter is the same as real human contact. And I had to entertain […]

Often times, I would ride one runner’s high right into the next one. I ran my first half marathon in July 2009 in […]

Racing Scares Me
I have always said that I love running, but I don’t love racing. So why am I signed up for the Las Vegas Half Marathon again? And a handful of other races before the year is over? Racing is fun, sure. I like the energy on race day. I like the pre-race nerves I get. […]
