I love mornings because the beginning of a brand-new day sets the stage for possibilities. Instead of stress and complications, possibilities of seeing things in a new light seep into our consciousness. Where there seemed endless reasons to worry the night before, possibilities of alternatives and even solutions make the load and work ahead more... Continue Reading →
Very few races are as organized and thorough sa Clark-Cardimax. One actually hears the buzz on the year's edition more than 6 months pre-race.
