6 Year Legacy Runner at the San Diego Half Marathon!

This year my 6th year running this awesome race! 6th year comes with the perks of being a 6 year Legacy Runner. This was my 1st half Marathon since November and I felt really good running, staying on pace with random folks, focusing on my music, staying hydrated and getting mentally prepared to conquer the Dreaded WASHINGTON ST! Lol! I'm cool with my 2:00:17 but I may ask for a :30 second results change since I got held up by the trolley! 😡😡 (hey, it's the difference between 2 and sub-2... Call me petty! 😂) I'm proud of all my #SiriusFitness folks who participated... Eduardo, Delia and of course Grace for running her FIRST Half! It was cool seeing the "Swole Sisters" (Natasha, Tish, Tammy) out to support Grace...and of course it was great seeing the "usual suspects", Lanae Battle rocking the Prayer and the National Anthem, Rudy Novotny announcing the race, the speedster Barry Spital (aka Barry Allen, The Flash), Bri Cat, Tina, Bruce, Clayton, Teresa, Donna & Robyn from the "colored section" (inside joke), Tracy keeping us safe, the San Diego Track Club family, the Milestone Crew (Chad and Greg) and many others I may not have mentioned. AND...Of course it's always GREAT when wifey Makena and the #Boyz are here for support! ❤️I can't wait to run my FAVORITE Half Marathon next year in my 7th Legacy Year! See y'all in 2018!

2015 San Diego Hot Chocolate 15k/5k

The San Diego Hot Chocolate 15k was INCREDIBLE!!! 16, 000 Runners, the "coolest" Finisher's Medal and a TON OF CHOCOLATE...lol! As one of the Ambassadors for the San Diego Hot Chocolate as well as the "official" Warm-up crew I would like to thank RAM Racing for continuing to bring this incredible race to San Diego. I wish we could do it two times a year! If you didn't join us this year MAKE SURE YOU RUN WITH US IN 2016!! (Wait for my SPECIAL CODE to enter!) check out our Album on Facebook!

Are YOU ready to make a CHANGE?

     Join me, Nasara Gargonnu, on my quest to get San Diego (and the World) moving in a "Healthy Direction!" I am a Father, Husband, Trainer, Group Exercise Instructor and Physical Education Teacher and I figured out that my PURPOSE is to spread the knowledge of Health, Fitness and OVERALL Wellness to everyone willing to listen (and even those who don't...lol!) I lost my father at the YOUNG age of 55 and I believe that many of us can prevent premature death and illnesses by "Eating Clean" (Cutting the preservatives, sugars and processed foods down to a minimum, eating REAL foods....Veggies, Fruits, Lean meats, etc...) a little exercise and Positive Thinking! It's an easy concept, but if we haven't been doing it in 20-30+ years or we have not been introduced to this lifestyle, it may be difficult.

     In the upcoming days and weeks I will be posting about my Health and Wellness in abundance because I feel it is a LIFE OR DEATH priority! Please keep your eyes open and follow me THIS blog, on my Facebook "Coach" page and even my personal page!

"I'm ready to make a CHANGE for the better because I have to LIVE for my family...what about YOU?"

7 Sirius Fitness Tips for Running the Costume Party Run Half Marathon (This Sunday)

7 Sirius Fitness Tips for Running the Costume Party Run Half Marathon (This Sunday)

1-  Eat the Big meal at lunch rather than dinner...I learned this the hard way when I ate Heavy the night (7pm) before a race and "FELT IT" the next morning...not fun! You don't have to Carb Load, just eat a balanced "clean" meal...PIG OUT AFTER THE RACE! lol!

2- Get there early...I try to get there at least an hour before the start of the race. It's not cool to get there in rush mode just to have to get running within 10 minutes with no warming up, mental preparation or time for that "last minute" potty break.

3- Hydrate...Hydrate...Hydrate! Don't wait for the day of the race to start....drink more than your average a couple days prior to the race and (if you want) carry water in a hydration belt and if you don't like those (which I don't) make sure you drink water a EVERY water stop.

4- Pre-Race Fueling... Personally I drink a Verve (Healthy Energy Drink) prior to the race and/ or a 1/4 of a banana or some Gatorade "like" drink.

5- "In-race" fueling... Try an Island Boost "shot"...less sticky and chalky than "goo" and it is assists with a quick burst of energy from a "tasty" mixture of glucose, coconut water and Healthy "stuff"! I take mine at mile 7, 9 and 11 (if needed)

6- "Keep your eye on the prize" and...Remember your "WHY"...Why are you doing this? Think of the accomplishment...Goal...all the training...the cause...THE BLING! lol!

7- Afterwards we EAT for our ACCOMPLISHMENTS! (at 1pm~ Wear your Medal)  Sushi Deli 1 ~ 228 W. Washington St., San Diego CA 92103
