About a month ago I decided to take up running. I have been running on a treadmill and I am up to about 4 miles at a time. I am still really slow, but I am trying to build distance first before I build up speed. Last night I took my 9 [...]
I was working out at the Gym today with the screen in front of me on MSNBC. The show that was on in was “Caught on Tape: The Thin Blue Line.” One of the stories they covered was a police officer who “attacked” a 14 year old male. You can see the [...]
I have actually made it to work out 2 days in a row. I did an upper body workout Monday morning. This morning I did 34 minutes on the tread mill. I ran for the first 10 minutes at 6 miles per hour. It feels good to actually be working out [...]

Started the day by skipping my workout. Had planned to do an interval session on the trainer at 4:30 am. Unfortunately I stayed up until 11:30 and just couldn’t pull myself out of bed to workout. I will try and squeeze a workout in tonight.
Breakfast today was a Clif Bar. I [...]
I finally have a goal in mind. Since I messed up and have done virtually nothing towards training and have gained about 30 pounds since July of ‘07 I need to stop. My goal now is to ride for a personal best in the 6 hours of Ithaca on July 19th. This [...]
I have talked about starting over many times. In many ways 2008 will be a starting over year. I have managed in the last 5 months to put back on all the weight I lost 3 years ago. I suspect when I weigh in tomorrow at the gym, I will be up [...]
I have had a lot of great ideas for writing lately, but I have not actually put those thoughts on paper. I had a brilliant post about the abuse of power of 41 U. S. Senators attempting to interfere in the business of a private citizen. Unfortunately that never made it out of [...]
Wow, has it been a long time since I last posted, over two months. I have a lot to write about. So much to write about that I really don’t know were to start.
My last post was about preparing for my last endurance race of the season. I did race the 12 [...]
My last endurance race of this season is coming up this weekend. The 12 Hours of Pando is this Saturday. I did this race last year as a 6 hour and was really taught a lesson about going out too fast and climbing too hard. This year I intend to start slower. [...]
