Yet another night run
Once I saw the planned training run this weekend at Gordon’s secret spot I was excited and had planned on being there. However scheduling conflicts with my wife have made it necessary for me to do another night run on Friday. I’ll be leaving from the water tower near the Nature Center at 8PM. My…
2008 Run to the Sun Application
The running of the Maui Marathon this past weekend reminded me of something else on Maui. However, first congratulations must go out to Julie Doheney of Kailua and FleetFeet Sports.

Some Fun Light Options

2007 Plain 100 from Jim Masterson
I now have by second 100 miler under my belt. My last 100 miler was the HURT100 in 2003. After that run, I was a complete mess. My hydration was non-existent, I didn’t know what to do with electrolytes, and I never grasped the importance of eating. Even though I finished the HURT100 in 2003,…
