Way back in February, while laying waste to Colorado with my wicked, jaw-dropping, awe-inspiring snowboard maneuvers, Colorado laid waste to me, in the form of tearing up my ankle something fierce. Unfortunately, two weeks before the injury occurred, I had signed up for a springtime half-marathon in Beantown. This half-marathon was fast approaching. Instead of […]

The MS150 City to Shore charity bike ride last weekend went off with only a few minor hitches:

The 300 mile drive from Boston to Philly took 8 hours on Friday thanks to rush hour traffic from New Haven all the way to Newark. The rain didn’t help either.
