Do you pick a “theme song” that motivates you as you train toward a goal race? That’s what we’re talking about this week on the Tuesdays on the Run linkup.

Four on the 4th Race Report
When we spend the Fourth of July in North Carolina with the in-laws, I like to run Four on the 4th. It has become somewhat of a tradition and may have been my first AG win back in the day. I still remember going back to Fleet Feet the next day to collect and use [Read More]
