With the amount of money that I pay for insurance premiums and deductibles, I expect the royal treatment if I ever have to take advantage of having insurance. This has NOT been the case with my last two experiences with a hospital that shall remain unnamed (but if I were to name names it would … Continue reading When Hospitals F*ck Up

Progress Q1 – Final
Well. The quarter has officially ended. It's clear from the data that I have slacked off a bit. I'm kind of OK with it. At least for today. Tomorrow I may go on a self loathing tirade about how sluggish I am being, but for today.... I am OK with not hitting the exact mark … Continue reading Progress Q1 – Final

I'm lazy about using a foam roller after my runs. I get in a hurry. Gotta get my run done. Gotta get my weights done. Gotta get … Continue reading Then We Roll
Mississippi 7K – Recap
I've gotta tell you, I'm a big fan of the Go! St. Louis organization. I love what they do for the racing community and the St. Louis community in general. I love their race environment. I love their courses. I couldn't really tell you much of anything that I don't love about them. This year … Continue reading Mississippi 7K – Recap
