2020 Stone Mill 50 Mile Race Report

November 17, 2020

First off, huge congratulations to the RD and all the volunteers who were able to pull off this year’s Stone Mill 50. I can’t imagine the time and effort required. I felt safe from start to finish. Simply an amazing job. Due to COVID, we started in waves of 20 people every 5 minutes from…

2020 Long Haul 100 Race Report

January 25, 2020

Flat ain’t easy. Here’s the thing. After 6 years and 30 some odd races, I’m starting to become an old hat at ultras. Unfortunately, I’m also becoming forgetful in my old age as lessons I’ve learned in the past need to be relearned on a periodic basis. Like flat courses aren’t as easy as they…

2019 Fast and Furriest 5K Race Report

November 29, 2019

Man, I hate racing 5Ks. It’s not the distance. I love running and 3 miles is typically when I start getting warmed up. But racing? That all out, ragged breath, heart in your throat type of running? Not my thing. But our family does Thanksgiving in Ocean City, NJ and like to run this race.…

August 15, 2019

Eastern States is a 100 mile footrace in the Wilds of PA (i.e. north central middle of nowhere).

Let’s address any doubts you may have about how difficult this race is right at the beginning. Yes, this race is as hard as advertised. If anything, it might even be more challenging.

2019 Naked Prussian 50 Mile Race Report

April 3, 2019

This is the third and final race in Uberendurancesports’ Naked series, which has to do with the stripped down cost and not the clothing. There are marathon and 50 mile options. It’s almost the identical course to the Naked Bavarian, which I’ve run the past 5 years. If you like candy, you’ll love the course…
