Here are a few recent tearsheets from Runner’s World. The first is the Rave Run from the current (June 2012) issue with my ladyfriend Emily and her stankdog Riley running in Valley of the Gods, Utah. The second is the cover of the 2012 Runner’s World wall calendar also featuring Emily (sans rothund), this time on an oceanside trail in Goa, India.

I left the house at 2:30 this morning to make a gamble on a 30% chance of weather. Guess what happened.

Back in February of 2008, Dave McAllister and I took a trip to Laos and Thailand to climb on some rocks. I won’t tell you that there was a lot of climbing done, but if you like reading about drinking and hives, check out our article in the 2012 issue of Ascent magazine. Ascent has been published off and on since 1968 and aims to be an annual, feature-driven climbing journal. I’m both befuddled and honored to be a very small part of that tradition.

I’ve been scanning almost non-stop for the past few days. I’ll try to get something up soon.

It's on Buttermilk Road as you head back into Bishop, California.
The Journey fan in me (this whole sentence so far has been a lie) is still fond of the “Don’t Stop Believing” stop signs you see from time to time, but this one beats them all. It’s found at the end of Buttermilk Road as you’re heading back into Bishop from the Peabody Boulders, the Pollen Grains, or whathaveyou.

Just something I like from Berthoud Pass in early January. We were heading up for a full moon tour up Russell Peak.

Despite Castlewood Canyon, Colorado being one of our go-to areas for the past decade, the Fontainebleau area never gets old. There is a dearth of the scrub oak that plagues the rest of the park and the sun always seems to filter fantastically through the trees. If you make it be sure to check out Fountain Lip Traverse and Cave Direct, both seen here.

I’m going to wait until I get the film back later this week before I post too many photos from our climbing trip to Bishop, but I couldn’t pass this one up. I love the late day light, the framing of the fallen logs, and Dave‘s crazy (probably not Boy Scout approved) stance.

I can’t remember when I first played this game. Probably in the late 90′s in Potrero Chico when I was younger and regularly grew hair.

To play:

  1. Drink for a while.
  2. Make line on ground.
  3. Keeping feet behind aforementioned line, use beer bottles to walk your body out beyond line as far as possible. Nothing can touch the ground other than the beer bottles and your behind-the-line feet.
  4. Reach out and place one bottle as far as you can.
  5. Use remaining beer bottle to return to starting position.
  6. Achieve fame and fortune.
  7. Drink for a while.

Tip: don’t break either of the bottles. I shudder to imagine the resultant mess.
