Day421 River scramble
River Scramble 10k and Bust the Banks 13.1 are Richmond gems of trail running in the city. I did this in 2018 as my first trail racing. It was a lot of fun. Full of adrenaline rushing down hill and power run up hill, rock hoping and scrambling, it was what I imagined trail running…

Day374 Happy Halloween
Need to prepare for my seneca run with only two more weeks left. This week has not been great with training. 0 mile run. I was really lazy. After work each day, by the time I ate I did not want to head outdoor. Each day was the same. Hope to get some miles in…

Day368 commute
Hope this will be a short post because I am kind of out of time. I’m on the metro after almost 6 months, where I normally do most of my writing. But today will only be one stop because my work has moved much closer to home. I still rant about the traffic. It took…

Day325 a day
A day that I don’t post anything is like a day wasted or gone. What did I do that day? What did I do that week, month, or year? When I was young, I have memorable experiences, and you can remember everything. When now I am older, all these recent years seem to pass so…

Day268 to Reston
I chickened out to do my 50+ miles last weekend even though it was a perfect weekend. I did a long run though – a 7 hour marathon. Yes it was super long. I did not feel motivated to push myself to run faster. I dragged myself out the house in the morning. That’s good…

day266 kind a random Friday
This couple weeks I have learned quite a few things from Youtube while having nothing to do. It was more like an excuse of not wanting to do anything. –Napal, it is a beautiful country I want to go there trekking someday. It was not on my radar other than the Everest base camp trek.…

sometimes things just happen
Day 241 / Seneca Creek 50K report Another long post, but I had to get it out. I know, readers can get blog-fatigue. I do. Some readers only read once a month, some once a week. I try to blog when I can. Yes, mostly for myself as a run journal. So here is another…
