Running

Running a race in Central America is a lot like running a race in the States but there are some differences...

The week before we left Guatemala I was on a trail run with a friend. I was expecting an uneventful but good workout. I got a lot more than that...

Looming over Lake Atitlan are 3 volcanoes. They are beautiful and dominating. Now that our time in Guatemala is coming to an end, we felt the urgency to hike one of them, San Pedro. San Pedro is the shortest of the three volcanoes around the lake. It stands at 3,020 meters (about 9,900 feet) above sea level and is the most climbed.

Tag ran his first 5K with Ken (it was awesome) and the next day Ken ran a Half Marathon winning 2nd in his age group.

Panama, here we come...for Christmas 2014! Another expat family adventure.

Ever ran a half marathon? How about running one with a lot less oxygen? The post chronicles the Xela 2014 21K race which had a peak elevation of 8,000 feet above sea level.

I woke up early on Sunday AM so I could get a run in before the family got up and about. When I looked out the window I saw a very long and large pack of runners. What I soon found out really impressed me.
