LA Marathon Training Diary: One Day Away

I realize that I haven't posted in a month regarding my training. In the last month, we have essentially been in taper mode. In the last three weeks of training, I've run 14 miles, 6 miles, and 6 miles. The goal has been to keep the legs fresh for the marathon, but also not completely stop traini

5th Annual Oscar Contest Results

The Oscars are over and it's time to finally announce the winner of the Oscar pool. We had 110 people enter, but one person managed to win the contest outright with 22 correct picks. That ties my personal record and was really incredible showing. Honestly, I did a double take when I looked at his

Final Oscar Predictions

I want to be honest upfront. This is the worst year I've done researching my Oscar picks since I've been writing about the Oscars on this blog. Long gone are the days of "The ONLY Oscar blogger who lives in walking distance to the Kodak Theater". Of course that is not to say that I know nothing. I d

LA Marathon Training Diary: Half Way There

LA Marathon Training Diary: Getting Back on Track

Last September I began training to run the Los Angeles Marathon. It will be my first marathon. The race is not until March 18, 2012, but training for any marathon takes a lot of time and dedication. I probably should have started to write about this experience when I started to train. The marath

LA Marathon Training Diary: Singin' In The Rain

January 21, 2012 - 15 milesI'm not going to lie. I almost didn't go on this run. Why? It was raining. I have never run in the rain before and I was a little nervous. I didn't think I was prepared and I didn't want to get sick. There were a few times after I woke up when I tried to convince mys

2010: A Retrospect

Where have you gone 2010? This is the fourth year I've written a retrospect on the year and it has become a tradition to write that sentence. Why? It is amazing to think that another year is over. I swear time goes faster and faster as you get older. Anyway, looking back on a year right when it
