Here we go again...yet another blog about running. And here I go again, trying to start up another blog that will, hopefully continue on for more than a couple of weeks. (Although I'm off to a bad start since this first post has taken 3 days).
Anyway, I've done blogs in the past about preparing for a particular race - one which happened, one didn't (well, it happened, but I wasn't in it). My plan is to use this one to talk about all kinds of things - mostly running since that's what occupies a pretty large part of my free time. But also other stuff that is of interest to me. That's probably because I'm about the only one likely to read this.
I'll probably post some recipes, thoughts about books I'm reading, music I'm listening to, and other random things. I'll probably actually get political (shock!). I'm an unabashed Progressive that is stuck in a red state and constantly laughing at some of the people around here.
So, that's the plan. Here's the nitty gritty:
I'm 45 years old (eek!). I'm still a bit overweight but I love to run. I just need to love to eat a little bit less. I'm currently training for a pretty busy fall running season - 1 full marathon (Chicago), 3 half marathons (one of which is St. Jude Memphis) and part of a Ragnar Relay team. I'm also learning to play guitar, still trying to fit into a new job, have 3 dogs to walk 2 or 3 times a day, a pretty rabid football fan (and part of a fantasy league), and so on. That is to say I keep somewhat busy, but not too busy.
Ok, back to work. More later...
