From TRL with Love and Support

Patriot’s Day in Boston. For runners, this local holiday means one thing – the Boston Marathon. For many marathoners, this is the equivalent of going to the Olympic Trials. You qualify, you train, you travel, then you take on the legendary course and experience the camaraderie and community it offers. Whether you were at the [...]

Red Lizard Five Miler – Sunday, March 3, 2013

The 2013 racing season is about to kick into full swing! After testing out some other dates, the Red Lizard Five Miler returns to its original timing – early March.

New Years Eve – Time to Purge!

New Years Eve is almost upon us. For those in the know, that means it’s almost time to take to Wildwood Trail and challenge yourself one last time before 2012 is in the rearview. It’s time for the Purge & Splurge! Don’t know anything about the Purge & Splurge? All the info you need is [...]

Hey, Let’s Run Around Mt. Hood – For Fun!

By Frank Mungeam “What’s the point of running?” my grandmother used to say to me. “You never go anywhere!” She was only partly kidding, and she wasn’t really wrong. Out-and-backs are the worst. But even a loop run puts you right back where you started. You can imagine what grandma thought of track. On Labor [...]

Mt Hood Labor Day Adventure

If you don’t already have plans for Labor Day weekend, Team Red Lizard might have just the adventure you need. The Timberline Trail around Mt Hood is 40 miles long and has 11,000 feet of gain, but when you break it into a 3-day, 2-night, outing, it becomes a doable run and a fun opportunity [...]

The February Phenomenon

I’m sure we’ll forget all about these gorgeous February days when it is still colder and wetter than it ought to be in June (sorry, not trying to jinx it, but I’ve seen how this system seems to work). I have no doubt this is where the whole concept of Groundhogs Day came from – [...]
