Last run of 2015. A brisk 4 miles as the sun set on another year. This run put me just over 1500 miles for the year. With all the holidays, traveling, and parties, I was doubtful but somehow was able to squeeze in 130 miles this month to hit it. It’s been an incredible year of running and looking forward to more miles in 2016. Happy New Year! #chasingsunsets #running #goals #teamnuun #nuunbassador #beatyesterday #garmin #strava #newbalance #seemyrun #furtherfasterforever #blacksheeprun #werunsocial #instarunners #happynuunyear #newyear (at Cerritos Regional County Park)

One final run of the year before the festivities begin. It’s been a great year in running and life. I have much to be optimistic about in 2015. #running #fitness #newyear #lamarathon #training #garmin #920xt #strava #irvine #happynewyear (at Bill Barber Park)

I decided to start this blog to document my experiences in running. I am a runner who doesn't follow some of the widely accepted practices of running. For over two years I've been running in Vibram Five Fingers and for over a year, I have taken up running on a low carb or Ketogenic diet.

I've completed multiple half and full marathons using these unorthodox methods and am constant tweaking and improving.

I don't believe there is one tried and true way to do things, and what may work for me, may not work for you, but feel free to follow me on my journey.
