I know, I know, I'm late to the game on this place. What can I say? I've been busy and since they're closed Monday nights, I haven't been able to take advantage of this spot as an easy and quick dinner spot with my guys at the start of a week. Last Saturday, though, the … Continue reading A rave for Crave

Best race of the year – so far!
I’ve got a few running goals for this year that involve total miles run and participating in some races which I’ve never done before.

So, let's see...how did I do? Well, 4 of the items I didn't even come close to. I don't … Continue reading The best intentions
