Creative Producer, Writer, Lightly Tanned Runner
After running the Fall Classic back in November, I was ready to test the ol’ knees in January for my first race of 2018. When I ran the Fall Classic, I didn’t fret over it too much. I hadn’t been running a lot; I just wanted to get out there and be part of the [...]
One night when I was a kid, I looked through my brother's telescope. A bright blob appeared in front of my eyeball. At the very same moment, I jumped. Jumped like when you double-jump on on a trampoline and you think your legs are about to fucking bend the opposite way they're supposed to and [...]
