Ben’s Bolder Boulder

Great race!

I was really impressed with how well organized the race was and how well setup/supported it was. I went into the race hoping to run <1hr and also hoping to beat Dave (Hill’s dad). I was thinking I would be able to as two weeks ago at the Barking Dog I had [...]

Hill’s Bolder Boulder

Well, first off, I am sure all of you are waiting to know-  I ran the WHOLE race!!!!  On Friday, my physical therapist said that I could run but if my hamstring tendon started to hurt even the tiniest little bit, I was to immediately walk the rest of the race.  There was no pain [...]

Gardens Day

Today was the annual plant sale at the Denver Botanic Gardens. My friend Sonja and I decided to go during the members only hours and pick out our plants while the getting was good. Everyone else in Denver had the same idea. The herb tent was the first selection of plants after [...]
