Goals

You don’t have to be a fantastic hero to do certain things – to compete. You can be just an ordinary chap, sufficiently motivated to reach challenging goals.

The Bluff 50K Race – A Runner’s Report

The race was, in many ways, a “pumped-up” version of last year’s race. In 2008, the inaugural running of the Bimblers Bluff 50K Trail Race was nearly flawless. This year, the good parts got even better, and new goodies were added. A very practical AND stylish technical long sleeve shirt was a nice surprise. A new custom designed Buff made for an appreciated companion to last year’s finishers’ award. Goodies in our race bag, handouts from the major sponsor (Poron), and a carb-load meal the night before all added to the “value” of the race. Read more

Not a gecko in sight – Allstate runs the relay

To date, this will be my longest race.  I’ll be running the relay today with Iggy.  We’re calling ourselves ‘Team Bimblettes’.  I’ve been very excited about participating and the day certainly did not disappoint.  It’s been quite the training plan…  Bites of the Bluff, multiple falls, bee stings, fun runs…  All leading up to race day.

Race Report – Bimbler Bluff 50K

Runner Joe Danyliw wrote about his experience at this year’s Bimbler’s Bluff on his blog From Joe to Ironman. Looks like the Bluff was not quite what he had originally expected!

Chip off the old block

On October 25th 2009, Jan Oudemool finished his first marathon in a time of 4:58:25 in the company of his daughter Chipper. Then event was the Falmouth Marathon and he is said to be ‘over the moon!’ Congratulations to Jan and well done to Chipper who a few weeks before paced Dorothy to her first marathon finish.

A Beautiful day in Bimbledom

This report is not really about my run today but more about the day itself.  It was perfect! Of course we all know the weather was spectacular and the course was certainly a Bimbler course. Translation? Hard! What made me smile the most had nothing to do with running. Read more
