Drinkers with a Running Problem

Since the San Diego Rock n' Roll Marathon is right around the corner I've been training hard and thinking hard.  I've ran the course before and maybe you have too.  I stumbled upon this quote that I hope I find useful.


"You have to forget your last marathon before you try another. Your mind can't know what's coming."
- Frank Shorter


With that said, here is a link to a running club that actually sounds fun! Well this isnt the clubs website, but a place to get some sick threads if you happen to feel this way: Drinkers With a Running Problem

Avoiding Rattle Snakes

Now that spring is in full swing and summer is almost hear, check out the new Rattle Snake link to better prepare yourself out there while trail running.


Here is a solid nugget of information to get your brain started:


        "Rattlesnakes are most active in the warmer times of the year—spring through early fall—and many of them are nocturnal during the summer months. When favorable temperatures occur, many rattlesnakes are marginally active even during the winter. You are most likely to see them when the air temperature is between 70° and 90°F (21° to 32°C), regardless of the time of day—be it June or January."  (Arizona-Sonora Desert Museum)
