Bradley on the Run February 14, 2016 February 14, 2016 Race Reports itemprop="discussionURL"6 Comments

I know that it should never come as a surprise to a Vancouver runner when the rain is falling the morning of a race. I checked my weather app the night before – I knew what I was in for. And I know my friends in eastern Canada are suffering …

Friday Five: Brunch

Bradley on the Run February 11, 2016 February 11, 2016 Friday Five / My Story itemprop="discussionURL"4 Comments

Turns out, I’m one of those people who takes photos of food. Particularly when I eat out. And while I recognize that a lot of restaurant meals don’t really align with a runner’s diet, I want to share a few delicious brunch meals from the past couple of months. This week’s Friday …

I’ve never really been a gear-head, and I’m not the kind of person to be beholden to a brand. I like what I like, but I’m always willing to try new things and I’m pretty suggestible. However, since becoming a BibRave Pro in 2015, I’ve been rewarded with the opportunity to experiment with running-related …

Early in 2015, I decided that this year would be the #yearofthehalf. I successfully completed 12 half marathons – and though I finished them all, they were not without their challenges! The result was a lot of great experiences, and a lot of learning. So here they are – 12 lessons …
