Wil Runs the World…Mile By Mile
Sioux Falls Skedaddle Half Marathon RECAP
State #16 is a wrap. Mother Nature tried to give me some of her best with the driving windy cold sleet. Of course this was on my run to get to the start. The wind blew that crap in my face and I turned down the wrong street and my commute became a mile longer. […]
Half Marathon Unplugged RECAP [HM state challenge #15/50]
Wow, what a race. Burlington, Vermont didn’t disappoint. Amazing views of Lake Champlain. The weather was just right for a run. The downside was that the course was basically all uphill with a constant gradual ascent. I pushed through every one. Nice touch of adding the bouncy bridge crossing (That was a WHOA!) At the […]
Louisiana Marathon/Half Marathon RECAP
State half marathon challenge #14 is a wrap. Chilly morning start had just about everyone dancing. Staggered starts in a pandemic racing recovery year is the new thing. Participant attendance was decent. I’m sure they usually have more, but this was somewhat comfortable. People are still running too close to others in passing. Lots of […]
Race Calendar Updates 2021 – UPDATES (4/2021)
Wow, the race calendar is still in flux. New races replacing races that were also new, but were postponed. I feel liie a juggler in a circus ring. So the Garmin and Delaware Running Festiveal races have been moved. Updates on those later. But, I added Vermont and South Dakota on to my states of […]
Mississippi Gulf Coast Marathon and Half RECAP
Oh wow, I just realized with the holidays coming, arriving and leaving, I completely forgot to post the recap of this race. So let’s rewind the clock to December 13, 2020. Early 4:30AM start because my shuttle to the start line was at 5:30. I walked the three miles there and then we were driven […]
Space Coast Marathon and Half RECAP
I think that this race could’ve been more physically distanced, however I ran with my buff in place for the first three miles as the running field became less dense. I became dehydrated around the sixth mile (the temps were likely in the low 70F°s). Foot cramps started to slow me down because I forgot […]

SCC BMW Berlin Marathon 2021
September 26th, 2021 OMFG I got selected! I’m over here in shock! I’m going to be a Berlin Legend! Yay! 🥳 Oh snap! Now I’ve got to learn some German.
Space Coast Marathon and Half RECAP
November 29, 2020: I think that this race could’ve been more physically distanced, however I ran with my buff in place for the first three miles as the running field became less dense. I became dehydrated around the sixth mile (the temps were likely in the low 70F°s). Foot cramps started to slow me down […]
2020 Autumn Georgetown 5k and Half RECAP
September 27, 2020. Well that was a delightfully muddy and messy Half. A huge puddle covered the entire path just a few feet from the start. We started under overcast skies at 7:35am with a minor drizzle in the air. I was surprised that I pushed my pace harder on the outbound route. And that […]
