    In this episode I take you along on two great runs I've done recently. The first is Sabino Canyon in Tucson, Arizona and the second is Treasure Island in Laguna Beach, CA. These are two very different runs but both are outstanding and something you should put on your running bucket list! In my "That's Crazy Good", food segment I highlight the outstanding food from Bosscat Kitchen and Libations. I went to their location in Orange, CA and it was sooooo good! Click the link below to check out their menu. Their California Onion Dip is outstanding! It's served with pretzel balls cooked in duck fat! https://bosscatkitchen.com/orange/

    Up and Running Podcast Episode 31

    In this episode I discuss  winter running and highlight some of the specific gear I wear during rainy runs. I pass on some tips on staying dry and comfortable during wet runs so you can stay focused and finish those training runs when the weather is anything but perfect. I've posted links to each of the pieces of gear I discuss below. In my, "That's Crazy Good" food segment I highlight the great food from The Kolache Factory located in Tustin, CA. A kolache is a pastry filled with fruit or meat that is a warm pocket of goodness! If you've never had one and you love soft bread with tasty fillings stop by The Kolache Factory and get some!
