		<description>Bruce also needs to leave his comments in a recent thread instead of trying to bury them in an old post.

Angry much, &quot;Bruce&quot;?  LOL!</description>

		<description>Hi Bruce,

You know what? You are right. I am not. I once was, but a lot has happened since then.

Perhaps we should have a contest to see who should be the next blogfather/mother. Do you deserve a nomination? Please let my readers (few as they now are) know why.

Oh, you may want to leave them a valid URL to your blog so they can judge for themselves.</description>

		<description>Dude, you are so NOT the running blogfather.  Please stop saying that.  I do applaud your efforts.  But come on.</description>

		<description>Wow!

You guys, you dedicated loooong term runners are a real inspiration. I have only just started running for the first time; I have never been into running but I am trying to get into it before i hit 40!
I am using my blog as a personal journal (http://lastdayrunner.blogspot.com/) and motivator and all is going well so far.
One day i may do a marathon - (omg :o)
Take care and keep up the great blog!

		<description>I used to tell my friends I was a &quot;binge and purger of life&quot; ...all or nothing. I focus so intensely on goal and when I get there I want to celebrate by not focusing in that area and moving on to something else for a while.. or by just not doing anything.

I&#039;m trying to work on being more steady, but since I&#039;m such a highly passionate person about most things I do in life, I find it hard to be mechanical and steady 365 days a year! &quot;It&#039;s in my nature too&quot;, I suppose. 

I hope you&#039;re back bloggin&#039; again soon! Your site is great!</description>

		<description>Mark, I&#039;m inspired my your maniacal nature!  I&#039;m going to start running in this -27 degree weather and then I&#039;m going to...wait...no...back to my resting stage.  Phew, that was close.</description>
