I am married with 3 lovely children 26, 18, &12and a dog named Koda and a cat named Blue. Love to run and be outside. I believe that if you think you can do it and you work hard enough any thing is possible. Life flashes by in the blink of an eye, enjoy it while it last and remember there is a lot more to life than running. I coach high school swim and love it!

This is not my year for racing:( I have no idea what is wrong with me... It was the same as last race and my speed work lately my right quad gets this charley horse like cramp and it just feel like I'm running with a completely dead leg. This starts around mile 1 so it was a very miserable race. This whole thing is a mistery to me. I'm trying to get my electrolytes up as well as taking calcium, mag, potassium and extra salt. I was hoping that I was going to have a good race and felt good in the 1st mile but it just hits me like a train and their is nothing I can do to relieve it but slow my pace down. I am very frustrated and wish I could find answers but the medical world is clueless as well. I did have a fun cool down with Amber and my sis, ericka. And I got some new PearZumi shoes that I absoultey loved

PearlZumi Blue/green Miles: 21.00

Ah man, that stinks. I'm sorry this keeps happening to you. It's one thing to have an injury and to know what caused it so you can rest and take care of it, but to have something chronic and mysterious is frustrating! I hope Boston is kind to your quad and you can run pain free!

What PI shoes did you get??

Maybe it's leprosy. Anyway, nice job running way faster than I ever could.
