What a delight. Steve worked for the book writer on this multimedia musical epic and said we should check it out. It was a charming, inspiring, positive piece. In these times, to see a show that speaks to hope and courage in optimism and striving for more–it was kinda just what I needed. And given […]
I did stop to smell the roses… I know I’m incredibly lucky and fortunate. I just sometimes find myself in a funk. Oh, the humanity!
Not Safe For Work … There’s a scene in a season finale of THE WIRE where McNulty is wandering around Stringer Bell’s apartment. He’s chased this drug kingpin round and ground the streets of Baltimore and as he scans his foe’s bookshelf and mementos, spotting books on management and economic theory, and he shakes his […]
Sometimes… well… A LOT of time… the running is just a means to go someplace and see some place. Today’s I’m in New York en route to Canton, OH, for their race. I’m meeting up with Steve and Alexis at some stage. It means a crazy hotel stay in a capsule hotel and a super […]

I just downloaded the official MarathonFoto pictures I had “pre-booked” for the Boston Marathon 2017. So long as you paid BEFORE the race, it was cheaper… the downside of course is that you don’t know how the photos will turn out. It’s a calculated risk… albeit they claim to offer a 100% satisfaction guarantee. so […]
It will be a day long remembered. Hot and humid before the sun even came up… and then ever more hot and humid as the sun rose in the sky. There’s always this weird balance of impulses at runDisney themed events. At times the organizers want to set up a narrative throughline. And so the […]
The Tar Heel Ten Miler Double Down Challenge – An Update begun somewhere at a food pitstop on the drive back from Chapel Hill on April 22nd but not completed until after the Star Wars Half Marahton on April 23rd. As my good friend Harper pointed out, it’s a weird name for a challenge. You’d […]
