A Passion for Running

Welcome to the home of Mark aka The Running Blogfather - a 40 year-old dad, husband and marathon runner who’s beaten injury and is on the comeback trail!

a whole WHACK of new stuff!

passion for running category: complete running, running on Monday, November 28 2005

Aaron and I are excited about stuff we’ve got going on at completerunning. First, we thought long and hard (okay, it took all of 5 seconds) on a new mission statement and this is what we came up with:

CompleteRunning Mission Statement

We love our new mission which, when we think about it, is really not so new at all. We’ve just formalized it into some fancy words that have been guiding what we’ve been doing all along.

Along with the new statement, we did a complete overhaul of the home page. It’s now powered by WordPress and we’re quite happy about how it is coming along. On the CR home page, you’ll find a growing information resource, a place to find cool running stuff, and the hub of our domain. You can even do a google search for everything we have to offer (including all of the completerunning blogs) from there. It’s finally becoming what a home page should be so please stop by, let us know what you think and tell us if there is anything you’d like to see added!

Oh, and make sure you tell your friends and families about the home page. It’s a great place for people to get gift ideas for that special runner in their lives. :)

It looks great, Mark. But there was supposed to be a large link section up near the top for “cool running blogs about chocolate”. Maybe its not showing up with Firefox. I’d check that out right away.

love the new homepage.

And the mission statement’s close to perfect. I’d find some way to change “Running Community” to something emphasizing individuals, but that’s just me.

Maybe: “Connecting the world’s runners one step at a time?”
