October was a weird month, training-wise. I know I have lost top end fitness because I have not done speed work since August. This is always frustrating to me to let go of hard earned fitness, but the good news is, if you keep a solid fitness base, you can snap it right back up… Read More…
Happy Halloween from Laces and Lattes!

Why I am giving up some goals and not doing weighted squats

The Adventure Begins…
I heard somewhere recently that the truest meaning of adventure is when nothing goes right. When you have carefully made plans and in a moment, they all go up in smoke. That is my RIG team mate, Brad. He was on the way to our adventure racing camp this past weekend and his car was completely burned, which contained… Read More…
