swedish for strive
Long time, no posting. This was a pretty excellent summer, I have to say. Not much time for posting. Work was a lot more challenging than you would hope for the summer and I was out running or riding most nights. My eating regime has definitely loosened, but I’m happy to say that I’ve maintained […]

Falling into Fall
I realized that I hadn’t posted in a long time and wanted to update the masses of you who read this what is going on in my world. Post-Prouty riding has been mostly riding to work and the occasional slow trip along the Connecticut River. I’ve been ramping up training for the CHaD half marathon […]

husband beston
Amy registered me for this year’s Raptor Run at the same time she did. For whatever reason they added me to the roster as ‘Husband Beston’. Wife Beston had already run down to the lake from the house and decided to keep going alone rather than wait for the race to start. I wanted a […]

I don’t think I’ll be up for doubling our count next year, but you never know! Amy has read that a north/south orientation is better for capturing sunlight so we thought we’d give that a go.

bonobo + shigeto
Amy and I went up to Burlington on Sunday afternoon to catch Bonobo at Higher Ground. I do wish we were a little closer to a venue like that, because a lot of good stuff comes around, but you make the effort from time to time. Can’t say I had ever heard of Shigeto and […]

Hope Springs Eternal and Bittersweet Beginnings
By now, you all know of the tragic events that took place yesterday at that most venerable of road races, the Boston Marathon. As a runner and Bostonian I am sad and sickened at what took place. But having people that I love so close to the scene is even more traumatic. My godmother, Rhonda, […]
