I stumbled across The Scoopie by accident while searching for something else online. It was curiosity that got my attention and I scrolled back to take a look. Simple ideas that solve recurring annoyances or problems always intrigue me. Why has nobody thought of this before? And why had I never heard of this inexpensive […]
Early April is a beautiful time of year in Florida. Mornings are pleasant, humidity is still low and mother nature gifts us with the most gorgeous sunrises. The Riverside Dash, a local and fairly young race (in it’s sixth year for 2018) positions you perfectly to take it all in on the run. All you […]

Science In Sport (SiS) seems to be a relatively popular choice of electrolytes and fuel for endurance athletes . I have tried several brands and tested a number of the products offered by each.
