The Longest Run: August 2012
http://www.streakrun.com/2012_08_01_archive.html
Monday, August 20, 2012. Missed cutoff at Halfpipe outbound. Lingering knee issues and the strange Leadville puking syndrome caused some extra challenges. Thanks to all who helped crew and "pace" and gave support. Friday, August 17, 2012. Eight hours to go. Well it all comes down to this. Tomorrow I get to spend a day wandering in the woods. It looks to be a good day. My thoughts for the day are:. I commit, not to quit.". If the bone ain't showin', just keep goin'". I'll let you know how it goes. Just me...

The Longest Run: January 2013
http://www.streakrun.com/2013_01_01_archive.html
Wednesday, January 9, 2013. To laugh is to risk appearing the fool. To weep is to risk appearing sentimental. To reach out is to risk involvement,. To expose feelings is to risk exposing your true self. To place your ideas and. Dreams before a crowd is to risk their loss. To love is to risk not being loved in return,. To live is to risk dying,. To hope is to risk despair,. To try is to risk failure. But risks must be taken because. The greatest hazard in life is to risk nothing. Has nothing, is nothing.

The Longest Run: Steamboat Anniversary Runs
http://www.streakrun.com/2013/10/steambost-anniversary-runs.html
Sunday, October 6, 2013. So this here is one of those catch up posts. I really like spending time with my best friend. This trip was no different. Of course one of the highlights was running parts of the course on fish creek trail and up to Mt. Werner. We couldn't take the direct ski run route up to Mt. Werner due to construction but we got to see a lot of the mountain. Here are some highlights on the trip up Fish Creek. The trail is beautiful though it does get a bit rocky at times. So I ran a race yest...

The Longest Run: September 2012
http://www.streakrun.com/2012_09_01_archive.html
Tuesday, September 25, 2012. Leadville 2012 Race Report. I suppose I should record this for posterity's sake. At the very least I will look back at this the next time I run a race or run Leadville and will have something to obsess over along with looking at splits for every aid station over and over. Leadville 2012 has come and gone. The final, official result was a DNF at Half-Pipe outbound, missing the cut off by around twenty minutes. I ran/walked a bit from Fish to Powerline, but the pain was getting...

The Longest Run: July 2012
http://www.streakrun.com/2012_07_01_archive.html
Tuesday, July 10, 2012. So I suppose I have to write this. These aren't really the posts you want to write. The redemption tour had been two. This year, but number three didn't happen on this occasion. DNF at North Fork 50 miler for the third year in a row. I made the 50k cutoff with forty minutes to spare? Went up the hill a few more miles and then turned around and came back and dropped. Dropped! Despite my faux arrogance. I started out in last and was quickly by myself running through some beautiful c...

The Longest Run: December 2012
http://www.streakrun.com/2012_12_01_archive.html
Monday, December 17, 2012. Run Rabbit Run 2012 (Hares). Remember when you first started running? Maybe you were a kid in elementary P.E. class. "Take a lap". Maybe you were on an athletic team, first day of practice, three miles, out to the cemetery and back. Maybe you were in college and realized the dorm buffet was taking it's toll, so you strapped on some Vans and hit the pavement. Maybe you've "started" a dozen times already, and today was a new "start". All these things result in "starting". Tags: D...

The Longest Run: June 2012
http://www.streakrun.com/2012_06_01_archive.html
Monday, June 25, 2012. Once more unto the breach. Well it's not as serious as all that, but I do have a race on Saturday. The past two times running have not exactly been. It worked for Hal. I see you stand like greyhounds in the slips,. Straining upon the start. The game's afoot:. Follow your spirit, and upon this charge. Cry 'God for Harry, England, and Saint George! I am pretty much awesome. Thursday, June 7, 2012. My pain train still thinks 8 minute miles are fast. With my "win" of D.F.L. Two months ...

The Longest Run: April 2013
http://www.streakrun.com/2013_04_01_archive.html
Thursday, April 25, 2013. Where everybody knows your name. Cheyenne Mountain 50k preview. There's a trail race coming up. It's on Saturday, April 27th, 2013 at Cheyenne Mountain State Park, Colorado. There are several variants including a 50k. I am signed up. Again. This will be the third year I have attempted it; it is the third year of the race. As has been well. In previous blog entries, I am the two time defending D.F.L. My goal? Give someone else the crown. The DF.L. crown. In my own mind. I offered...
