We have the same future goals.

Hahaha that picture of the guy who pooped his pants is so sad! If that was me I would most definitely stop and clean myself up at least hahaha. And then probably kill myself out of embarrassment and bad luck. Poor guy. Did you take that picture yourself or get it from the internet??

(*okay the website above isn’t mine, but it is my favourite website in the whole wide world*).
SR,
I am a fan of your blog since I am also a runner and I love that you don’t seem to take it all too seriously–which is rare in the world of running! I’ve been a casual runner my whole life, and about 2 years ago I got more serious about it. I ran my first half, then my first full, last fall and qualified for boston. I ran boston last spring, and now I’m training for my third full but I’m hampered with injuries. I’m super-impressed by your high mileage and racing volume, and I wonder if you have had injuries? What have you done to avoid getting injured? Any tips? Or are you just one of those lucky folk who seem built to be indestructible when it comes to running? I hate those people.

You’re amazing!! What is your stretching regimen? Also, any advice on bad blisters? I seem to get them on my big toes, around the area you get corns…

SR!! Love, love, love your blog. It’s actually taken over my Perez Hilton bookmark on my ‘top. Any who’s. Are you going to run the Portland RnR half next May? Registeration opens May 1st and is $55 for one day then jumps up 20 bones. If you are running it, that’s just the thing to seal the deal for me =) Weird, I’m sure. But I’m pretty shameless and I love to celeb stalk, you included. Eeew, weird again….

well thank you for the compliment, but i prob wont be running the portland half but id never say never. the timing of it just doesnt fit my schedule very well w/ leaving for alaska and fishing. normally we try to be gone by then. but $55 is a smokin deal!

Planning to run in all 50 states… Miss Dean Karnazes? ;)

Amanda @ RunningOnCoffee August 5, 2011 at 10:54 am

ohhh, that poop picture is AWFUL. And I don’t understand how Katie Holmes can run 26.2 miles bra-less.

For goal number 2: how about the Philly RnR half this September? Or are you just going for the full marathons?

Reply

Leah October 25, 2011 at 5:07 pm

Why haven’t you run an Alaska marathon yet?! You have quite a few to choose from. Just don’t do the Humpy’s marathon; it’s super-boring.

Reply

SkinnyRunner October 25, 2011 at 5:10 pm

because im never in alaska when im not fishing. id like to run one there one day but dont really want to vacation where i work, ya know?

Come do the Philadelphia Marathon!

Runangerun February 2, 2012 at 10:26 am

I think you need to cross off #3 on your list! Congratulations!!! :-)

Whenever you’re ready to do your Arkansas marathon, you can come do the Hogeye in Fayetteville. Great college town, and we’d probably poop our pants before the race out of excitement that you were here. :)

Lindsey April 10, 2012 at 12:29 pm

You need to come to MN and run Twin Cities Marathon, Grandma’s Marathon in Duluth….or BOTH!!

Jenn @ RunItMyWay April 11, 2012 at 10:17 am

You realize you can officially enter the exclusive 50 state marathon club with the number of states you’re run marathons in? It would be cool to run one in every state, and there’s anyone who can do it, it’s you!

Reply

Claire April 19, 2012 at 4:21 am

You need to run some international marathons. What about the Great Ocean Road Marathon in Australia? Maybe in 2013? http://www.greatoceanroadmarathon.com.au/

Nelly October 8, 2012 at 2:28 am

You need to come run in North Carolina!!! OBX is in a month and its at the beach ;)

Jessica October 14, 2012 at 7:21 am

What about a 50k trail run…there’s one here in Mississippi 3/2/2013!

Reply

Tiffany November 19, 2012 at 2:18 pm

Rehoboth Beach Delaware – December 8th – why is this not on your list lady!! :) I think it is full because we had a HUGE rush of NYC runners sign up – but you should totally do it next year and check it off your States list!

We are doing on in Maryland, March 16th if all works out – another state for you! ;-)

Wow… I hope that poop-guy won his race.. otherwise there really is no excuse. How embarrasing.

Really like the vibe of your blog!

Nic January 15, 2013 at 7:03 pm

I had the misfortune of running behind a female who looked quite similar to poop guy (though not that extreme) in a race last year. Fortunately it motivated me to run faster to pass her so i wouldn’t have to see/smell/think about it.

Love your blog. Have you ever runm the E.T. Full Moon Marathon? I think its the only marathon where it’s compulsory to wear glow sticks. A bunch of people running in various alien costumes wearing glow sticks seems right up your alley!

Hey! Just an FYI all the pictures aren’t working!
