Saturday (Oct 31) was the annual Pumpkin Butt 50K fun run at Kennesaw Mountain. Since I didn’t have all day to be out there, I went to take pictures and get a few casual miles in. (Probably 7-10 miles.) Carpooling with Whit, we had some kinda funny misadventures of trying to get there. Lets just [...]
Read More..>>The Sunday morning run was Harbins Park. A good crowd showed up: Dustin, Ryan, Mark, Joe, Roman, and Brad. Weather was just about right, being a relatively cool 69 degrees, and everyone was in good spirits. After everyone decided on the route they were going, away we went. (Variations of the hiking trail, the out [...]
Read More..>>Ever since it opened in March, I’ve been wanting to get to Harbins Park to check out the trails. The trip was worth it. Wish I could have gotten their sooner. There is a hiking trail, horse trail, mountain biking trail, and some random paved trails. I met up with David Ray, Whit and Beth, [...]
Read More..>>This morning was the 2009 Hot 2 Trot 8 hour run, in Decatur, GA. It’s put on by the good folk at GUTS. (Along with a number of sponsors.) As the name implies, it’s generally hot and humid out, as is usual during a Georgia summer. So, to say it out front, I didn’t run [...]
Read More..>>Saturday, February 28, 2009 brought the running of the third annual Thrill in the Hills half marathon. Although I had no intention of running the race this year, some friends were going, so I figured I’d head over to take some pictures and get a couple miles in. Being that it had been raining for the [...]

It may be off by a couple, but for a fatass, which is supposedly a “no-support, no shirt, no medal, no nothing” race, it a absolute ton of [...]
Read More..>>Wow, it’s been a while since I wrote anything. (Well, not that long, but enough to make me feel guilty that my loyal readers may be seriously deprived of…well…of me. So here I am, in all my radiant, typing glory. Things have been busy lately, but all with good stuff. This last weekend, after a [...]
Read More..>>Saturday brought our merry band of runners together for an evening of camraderie and sweat. Most of us started the morning with our usual group run, a casual 5 to 8 miles followed by the breakfast of soon-to-be champions. (Mcdonalds.) From there, we went our separate ways for the day, and reconvened at 7:00 PM. [...]
Read More..>>After the post the other day about contests and cookies, I had the urge for them last night. So, out come the ingredients, and a while later, fresh baked cookies. Yummy! Now, knowing that I’d eat them all if they were here, I continued baking the whole batch to bring to the running club in [...]
Read More..>>One thing that really shocked me when I first moved to Georgia was the evening thunderstorms. Wow, what a light show they give you. I thought I’d take a little space here to share with y’all what these are like. I took these pictures last night (June 27, 2008), starting around 9:30. The sun was [...]
