I recapped the Antarctica Marathon in THIS POST. It was the most challenging marathon I have ever done. Check out all the gory details there! Now, I'd like to share a recap of the rest of the trip, which, to quote my friend Phil from the Cayman Islands (who took the same trip a few years ago), was a "belter of a trip." A "belter" of a trip for sure! I know most of you want to see more pictures Continue Reading

Weekly Recap: 14 Weeks Until the Houston Marathon

So even though our trip to Georgia was a few weeks ago, I still am pushing publish on this post to share Continue Reading
