Late night bullets

Sunday, August 24th, 2008

I hate when people do bullets.  It makes them look like they think they are so damn important that people will be desparate for anything they have to say, and bulletpointed items will give them just enough to be happy.
That being said, I don’t have time for a full post but I wanted to post [...]

Corn!

Thursday, August 21st, 2008

I stopped at the corn stand that pass every day on the way to work (only this time I stopped on the way home).  The sign by the road had been taken down but I went up to the stand anyway.  It was self service!  All this time, I could have had fresh corn and [...]

Looking for zucchini

Tuesday, August 19th, 2008

I had 5 miles on the schedule tonight, but the road just outside the neighborhood was undergoing major repaving.  With traffic backed up and the road filled with piles of asphalt, cones, and sweaty guys in fluorescent vests, I decided it wasn’t a safe place to go running.
So I drove the truck about a mile [...]

fast post

Thursday, August 14th, 2008

Just a VERY quick post because its late and I need to get to bed so I can 1) get up for work and 2) forget that I’m hungry and eat everything in the house.
I did 5 miles in the moonlight tonight and it was really really nice.  I miss the night runs on cool [...]

3 more miles

Wednesday, August 13th, 2008

I ran three miles tonight with my new running partner.  We ran the hilly park again.  I think this is a good thing.  I like running with someone and I think the hills are good for me, instead of just the mostly flat road.
Seeing my partner run, I can tell she is going to be [...]

5 miles

Tuesday, August 12th, 2008

I had 5 miles on the schedule tonight and did them after a brief delay with the refrigerator.  The wife made sloppy joes for the kid and his nephew and I ended up having two for dinner.  I don’t know why really, because I wasn’t very hungry.  Just something about the taste.  Maybe the MSG [...]

Not much to update.

Monday, May 5th, 2008

I ran a bit this week. I know I ran 3 miles one of the days during the week, but can’t remember which one. And Saturday I ran for an hour. Then Sunday I did cardio for an hour.
I found that the TV shows at the gym suck. One [...]

Dear stupid runner

Thursday, April 24th, 2008

Dear stupid guy who was running on Kingsley Road last night,
I know you wanted to get a run in during the evening like I do (lately). That town is very small and makes a relatively safe place to run, however, there are some points you need to be aware of so that I don’t [...]

I’m not so mature

Saturday, April 12th, 2008

I ran this morning. We had nice weather for the first time since last August, so I went running while the family slept. It was hot and humid, which is a really strange feeling for April and even stranger since it hasn’t been hot and humid since, well, last August.
I ran [...]
