  Posted on October 30, 2009 by tbrush3 in Uncategorized

  I have the Greenville Half Marathon tomorrow.  What is even better is that I also have my wife and two boys coming with me.  I think my boys are not as excited about that as I am!  My oldest wants to make sure this does not cut into trick or treating time. I enjoy this [...]

  Posted on October 22, 2009 by tbrush3 in Uncategorized

  With aid stations every 6 miles my best motivation is just run to the next aid station.  As I left mile 19 I knew where I was going on the return trip.  I did slow down the pace some and just wanted to concentrate on running each mile one at a time and not to [...]
