Runner’sHouse.com is devoted to explaining concepts and offering advice on a wide range of running related topics. All the information contained in this site is a combination personal experience and a wide range of running disciplines. Back in 1999 I was exactly where you are right now, just starting out as a new runner. In addition to that I was recovering from a car accident, 30 lbs overweight and unable to run a mile to save my life.

Today, this is my running bio:

• L.A. Marathon ‘04, ‘05 and ‘06
• Lucerne Marathon, Switzerland
• Inca Trail Marathon ‘05
• Disneyland Half Marathon ‘06 and ‘07
• Camp Pendleton Mud Run ‘04 and ‘05
• San Francisco Bay To Breakers ‘02, ‘04 and ‘05
• Venice Christmas Run ‘03, ‘04 and ‘05
• Jet to Jetty Run ‘03, ‘04 and ‘05
• The Hills are Alive Run ‘04
• Chinatown Fire Cracker Run ‘04 and ‘05
• Village Runner 4th of July Run ‘03
• Keep L.A. Running ‘03
• San Diego Half Marathon ‘02
• Wine Country Half Marathon ‘02
• Etc, etc, etc…

Now hopefully you are a little bit better off than I was years back, but either way I am going to give each person who comes to my site the real life experience of being an average guy who wanted to become a runner.

First thing is to start with the tips I give each of my friends who want to start running but more importantly to keep running. (Runner’sHouse.com Disclaimer)
