Oh, the heat and humidity of the south…Almost time for “inside season” to start. My coworker and I managed to get out a couple times during lunch this week for a few miles. Now that he’s learning the names of the routes, he’s having a bit of fun mapping everything out. It will be nice [...]

Comments(2) Whew…been a while since I’ve been here. With the little guy keeping my busy, work, everything else, time just gets sucked away. (Er, guess I’ll start calling him that.) I’m still working out during the week, but weekends are usually booked up. Sorry guys, but going to gym class with the little man on Saturday [...]
Read More..>>For the fourth time, this last Sunday I ran the ING Georgia marathon. (Well, 3rd time doing the full. The first year I only did the half.) The Race: The conditions for the race were good. Overcast in the low 50′s with a chance of rain. Naturally, waking up at 4:00 AM was way to [...]
Read More..>> Comments(2) Wow, lately I’m getting bombarded by spam. Well, I suppose they could be real comments, but my Russian is very rusty.

(Well, I did get one decent run in at the beginning of the month, but essentially nothing since.) And to add to it, we’ve been “eating well” all month. There was the cookie exchange. And leftover [...]
Read More..>>Last Wednesday, we took a break from the ordinary and woke up way before the crack of dawn to watch the Orionids meteor shower. Dianna had seen in the park schedule that they were hosting a meteor shower party at Little Mulberry. Yes, the same park I always go running at. So, being the adventurous [...]
Read More..>>About a month or so ago, Ryan and I were talking about various things, and somewhere along the way, the conversation turned to software. (Gee, seems like my conversations often go that direction.) One thing we both thought is that for race registration, Active.com is the only choice. In my opinion, Active used to [...]
Read More..>>Well, I learned a lesson this week. After 3 months off, getting started moving again is tough. It hurts. On Monday, I decided it was time to get back on my feet after all the baby stuff going on. (Sweetie had actually been trying to get me out for a while, but I kept putting [...]
