Expert Solutions to Beat the Heat

I first wrote this on 7/11/16, and after last week (and as we delve into increasingly hotter temps), it seems like a good time to once again "remind" you about a few, quick things: I've lived in Savannah, full-time now, for thirteen years. I can safely say that, in at least ten of those y…

The Best-Laid Plans of Mice and Men...

With the Publix Savannah Women’s Half Marathon and 5K recently in the books for many of you, and the Boston Marathon right around the corner for others, I thought it important to talk about expectations (and how to handle them), because for many of us, when we spend as much time as we …

Every Dollar Matters

Every now and again, you’re lucky enough to see what you do actually making a difference in a person’s life.  And although some might consider us no more than glorified shoe salesmen and women (which you might think a backhanded compliment, but what I consider to be full-fle…

Critz Tybee Run Fest

To some reading this, my words have likely fallen on deaf ears in the past-not because they didn't enjoy my writing (I hope), but because they felt like I wasn't talking about (or to) them; that my words, although heartfelt, simply didn't pertain to someone that wasn't actively "competing"…

Limitations

Approximately a week and a half ago, my wife (Melissa) and I traveled to Charleston so that she could tackle the marathon; she'd been training like a madwoman, trying to will herself across the finish line with not only a personal best, but also a time that would qualify her for the Boston M…

Bah, Humbug!

I'm having a hard time getting into the "Christmas spirit" this year; the year has flown by, and it just doesn't seem plausible that it will be here at the end of the week (it's still July, right?!). The weather's too warm, the presents aren't going to buy themselves, and there's just so muc…

We all have someone in our life that doesn't understand running; someone that just can't seem to grasp why we do it. And perhaps that's our fault, because quite frankly, none of us can really explain why we get out there, no matter the weather, day in and day out-the words we try to use to e…
