When the 24 hour event was added to this year’s Cirque Du Griffith Park I knew I was going to sign up for it. Of course, I signed up for it back in December with every intention of completing the 24 hours. Well, life happened and training wasn’t my main focus, so going into the…

Life In A Nutshell
“I remember you wrote about that when you had your blog.” Eek. Had??? Those words were said to me last week and I’ll admit they stung for a millisecond. It wasn’t news to me that I let the dust settle on this blog and it’s no accident I’m posting this 2 months to the day…
Cirque Du Griffith Park 12 Hour – 2018

Prior to last weekend’s Griffith Park Trail Races (GPTR) which consisted of a Half Marathon, Marathon, and newly featured 50K, this was the only Keira Henninger race I have not been involved with in some way, shape, or form. She organizes seven races – that I know of – so I suppose it was only…

While hiking up Mt. Wilson was certainly a highlight in training, I’ve had a couple of pretty nice trail adventures since then.

Ohhhh the magical world of UltraSignup. If you ever find yourself on this site — beware. You could find yourself gazing deep into it’s Hot List and the Deal pages’ eyes and before you know it, 8 hours of your life have passed by and you didn’t even stop for snacks. If I could describe…
