"Not as advertised..."

Although it is now spring there is still a lot of winter weather and cold. With that comes cooler temperatures and now lots of rain... Spring rain.

Over the last few weeks, it would not be uncommon to be hit during our morning run with winds of 20 mph or even freezing rain. So then what do you do for your morning workout when the weather is "not as advertised" -- or for the morning of that race you've been planning for weeks?

Has technology changed Running?


Last weekend I woke up with the idea to find a race to celebrate St Patrick's Day. So, my wife and I went online and browsed through the local area races. And within less than 15 minutes we were registered and making plans for the weekend race.

 Growing up, the process to find a race would involve some word of mouth, asking our coach or head to the local shoe store to pick up race flyers. And that's as long as you had a few weeks to plan it and schedule it.
