Yesterday's post was all about what I do before I go for a long run. Well here is how all of that preparation paid off and then how I recovered. Because there was minimal wind yesterday morning I decided to take advantage of the running playground I live in and run across the Golden Gate …

Sleep is for the weak

On June 4, 2012 By JordanIn Uncategorized1 Comment

Let's just say it was an early early Sunday morning and sleep was not on the menu. The 4am wake up call left me plenty of time to drive Dave and our friend Jacob to the starting line of the Aids Life Cycle ride, where over 2,500+ road bikers ride from San Francisco to LA …
