The Path to Empowerment

By Richard Jones
Ashley Milano is a planner. She always knew exactly what she wanted to do with her life.
"Three years ago, I was planning my wedding. I was a bride," she said. "Two years ago, I was planning my husband's funeral. I was a widow. A year ago, I was angry and depressed and felt betrayed by my god and my universe. I was a victim."
Two days before the RamblRead More...

Energy Words

Joe Nuss — Fri, 31 Oct 2008 07:00:00 +0100

Gu and Gatorade and PowerBars have long been quick energy fixes for endurance athletes. For a couple bucks a pop, you can energize yourself with some maltodextrin in it's various forms for a good 45 minutes until the calories are burned and you pop another gel or sip some more drink or take another chewy bite of a vanilla crisp energy bar. All of those energy sources are great products for endurance sports, but they hold little water to a much more cost-effective sourRead More...

Endurance (Dual) Citizen

Thys Wind — Tue, 01 Jul 2008 07:00:00 +0100

Steve has been busy designing some very slick race kits for our team to wear at upcoming triathlons and running events. While we all enjoy competing, none of us are elite athletes. Instead, it might be more appropriate to refer to us as "endurance citizens". We are part of the same community that we also work so hard to inspire. Without giving away too much, these race kits will embrace that notion.

Follow Everyone Until it’s Over. And Then Go Back to Sleep.

Steve Lackey — Thu, 24 Jan 2008 07:00:00 +0100

Last month, my wife and I ran the Disney World Half Marathon together. Since this was her first half marathon race, I agreed to follow her well-thought-out race strategy: “Follow everyone until it’s over. And then go back to sleep.”

When she told me this was her plan at the start line, I laughed out loud. And although we were far from last, we took our owRead More...

It was a great day - 55 degrees at sunrise in early December. The warmth was a welcomed change from last year’s 16 degrees on this same morning. And as the over 5000 runners crossed the start line at the 3rd annual Thunder Road Marathon in Charlotte not a cloud was in the sky.

You couldn’t help but feel terrific as you ran through the first mile – a pretty much downhill stretch that tempts you to go faster than you planned.

And for me, especially, since Read More...

Making Time

Steve Lackey — Mon, 01 Oct 2007 07:00:00 +0100
Just like everyone else, I am swamped. All the time. And squeezing in time to train for upcoming races has been getting tricky lately.

Earlier this month, I had a limited window to get in a long swim and then a quick bike ride. I didn’t really have much time to spare, so when I got into the pool and realized my goggles had warped in the heat of my car, my immediate stress was quickly replaced by a need to keep moving. The ‘extras’ that were hanging on the hooksRead More...
