Runner’s World – Cancer Issue

By Blaine Moore on Thursday, June 30th, 2011 | No Comments

While I will occasionally read something from their website, I very rarely purchase an issue of Runner’s World anymore. When I was younger, I was subscribed for years, but around the time that I got to college it just didn’t seem relevant to me anymore. The other day, however, I picked up a copy. It [...]

By Blaine Moore on Thursday, January 18th, 2007 | 4 Comments

As the temperature has been plummetting recently (it was below zero fahrenheit last night when I got home from work) and the wind and dark and traffic are not a good combination when you have ice and snow covering the sides of the road, I have started running my lunch loop again. It is a [...]

The best runs come when you least expect them

By Blaine Moore on Sunday, July 16th, 2006 | No Comments

This advice does not apply to when you are injured or need a rest day due to over training. It does, however, apply to when you just feel lazy or you expect that nothing good can happen on any particular day. The advice I want to give you this evening is to always remember that [...]
