This Scallywompus Ranger Creek Veterans Day 5K Beer Run is another of my favorite Fun Runs.

DC Super Hero Run

I ran the virtual DC Wonder Woman Run back in 2020. Y’no, back when ALL the races went virtual due to the pandemic. 😷 I’m also a bit of a comic book nerd and I grew up watching Linda Carter as Wonder Woman. ❤️ So running the live DC Super Hero Run was a no-brainer…

Yippee-Ki-Yay!

Two weeks after running my first World Major, I was running my first DOUBLE! 😳 Two half marathons, in 2 states… in 2 days! And as luck would have it, I had come down with a horrible sinus infection that week. 🤧 Thankfully, the meds kicked in a couple of days before the trip so…
