It's called a "destination race" for a reason. Some racesĀ are so special, and their course so beautiful, it's WORTH a long trip. MDI Marathon & Half is one of them.

We've been talking about "fitness" wrong. There's more to fitness than working out and eating "right". We need to look at a more complete picture, and adjust our understanding and approach.

info_outlineComplacency is the enemy.
Sometimes we get a little too comfortable in our fitness. When that happens, we start getting complacent and taking things for granted. That was me... until this past weekend.
My 10th marathon finish was... something...
The 2018 Providence Marathon was my 3rd time at Providence, and my 10th marathon finish. It was, overall, a good day - it was not, however, what I was expecting. I had grand visions of setting a PR at my 10th full marathon and having this amazing landmark day. Instead, it was an average performance and not all that remarkable aside from it being my 10th marathon. While I may not have had a new PR and all kinds of fanfare, I DID walk away with some very valuable lessons.
