Summertime and the livin's easy

Your eyes are not deceiving you … I am actually posting a blog post!  Never mind my unplanned & extended absence from the blog … let’s just skip right to the good stuff.  Where I’ve been, what I’ve been doing, and what I’m looking forward to!

 

I met Dean Karnazes at the Big Sur Marathon expo (in April).

It’s been a fun and busy summer.  And I’ve got a lot more fun and exciting things coming up in the fall.  Training for CIM has started … and I’m running not one, not two, but THREE half marathons in October.
