With an upcoming Trail Runcation, I’ve been trying to run more trail races. The Tejas Trails Mellow Trail Race seemed like the perfect way to get off-road and back to nature! Eric and I first ran this one with friends back in 2019. It was challenging but I decided to give it another go. This…

Our family started participating in the Soler’s Sports SA Zoo Run (a 2-day event) back in 2012. But Eric and I weren’t the ones racing. NOT YET anyway. Here’s how it all started: When our son was 2 years old, we signed him up for the SA Zoo Kids Run which is held on a…

The 2024 SARR Labor Day Whine Run 5K & 5-Miler, which takes place on Labor Day Monday was one of 4 races I had planned for the first week of September. I had run a half marathon the day before and then had a night relay race that Friday and then another half marathon (trail)…

The E-Dragon Run Festival is a unique event. It’s not just a race. It’s a celebration. E-Dragon Productions was founded 11 years ago by Erik & Kristine Burciaga and this year they celebrated by hosting a low cost running event. There were multiple (chip-timed) distances with matching prices! For instance: $1 for the 1-miler, $5…

The Beat the Heat 5K & 5K Bunked Out Relay held at Mary Kyle Hartson City Square Park in Kyle, Texas is another very meaningful For The Love of Go running event.

That’s been my relationship with Bigfoot Running Company. My…

For The Love of Go’s Off To The Races 5K held in Buda, Texas is a great summer running event! I ran it for the first time last year and it’s become one of my favorite summer 5K races. It’s a great course in a beautiful community. The race starts and finishes at Sunfield Elementary…

E-Dragon Productions’ Dragon’s Den Half Marathon, 10K & 5K held at Pearsall Park in San Antonio, is a VERY CHALLENGING race. But who doesn’t love a good challenge? 😎 Jorgina and I were there, bright and EARLY repping the Half Fanatics and hoping to redeem ourselves after our attempt at the Dragon Trails 25K Trail…

It’s that time of year again. Time for the Scallywompus Alamo Beer Series! The first race in the series, Remember The Alamo… Beer! 13.1, 10K, 5K and Relay was held at McAllister Park in Northeast San Antonio. We’ve been running A LOT of races here lately but I’m okay with it. It’s a short drive…

This was the 4th race (out of 5) in the Edragon San Antonio 5K Summer Race Series. This was also the 3rd race of that weekend for me. After running a 10K night race that Friday before and then a half marathon the next morning, this 5K was going to be an easy “recovery run”…
