Sean Graham's Final Two Weeks in Europe
The last two weeks of the trip have been a bit lower key. Having been in Leuven for two weeks already I felt I have seen most of what is to be seen. Since the 3k in Ghent was on a Sunday and the next race was a Saturday I only had 5 days before lacing up to race again. Read more

Frey - 14th at the Utica Boilermaker 15K
Jacob wrote this blog about his race this past weekend and his final tune-up for the Pan-Am games. The previous I week I had run 150 miles and to say the least I was not expecting much. Its and odd feeling to have a heart that visibly beats through a couple shirts, and still be so tired you get passed by the fat girl going up a couple flights of stairs. I made the trip up to good ole Utica New York for the Boilermaker 15k with Michelle Lilienthal. Read more

Ed Moran's Blog (who was 9th at the Peachtree 10K)- Vol. 1

After reading Jacob and Sean’s blogs this week, I felt guilty about procrastinating and forced myself to complete my first contribution to the website. This is my first attempt at blogging, so please be patient. If you are looking for a literary masterpiece, please look away now. Much of my blog will be stream of consciousness, and I can guarantee it will not be as entertaining as Jacob or Sean’s. I do not possess Jacob’s timing, and I have never attempted to clear customs with 4 Ibs. of blow. Also, on a side note, I would like to make this blog as interactive as possible. So, if it leaves you with any questions or if you ever want me to elaborate, just post a comment under the blog. Read more

An Introduction
After a mediocre performance at USA Nationals I looked forward to beginning a full month of racing in Europe. With the help of my agent Matt Lonergan I fortunately was able to get in many of the races I was looking for, including two 3k’s, two 1500’s and a big 5k at the end. Including the week in Indianapolis I will be away from my current home in Eugene, Oregon for a total of 6 weeks, competing in 6 races. I will attempt to keep you up to date with results of my races and stories of my travels as the trip goes on. This entry I believe will be the longest by far because of the craziness I had to endure just to get to the first meet. Read More

PAN AMERICAN BLOG - FRYE STYLE
This summer we will have several guest bloggers, one of whom, Jacob Frye sent in this first installment about his excitement over making the Pan-American USA team.
To bring you up to speed I was the last guy selected to represent the United States this summer in international competition. Getting that call from USATF probably made for the best day of my life, and I dont think the guy on the other end ever heard so many happy cuss words before. I was in the midst of finals preperation at Villanova Law School and nothing takes the edge off a nasty contracts exam like the thought of wearing USA. Im beyond psyched that Ed has also gotten a position on the team. He has told me that after he races he wants to shop till he drops, but maybe I can get him to do something a bit more manly.
