Yaaaay Runblog!

How often is it that they say men think about sex?
Every seven seconds, maybe?

Actually, I feel like that little statistic might be a load of bullshit, but you know what's not bullshit?  The fact that I probably (definitely) think about running, or something that has to do with running, twice as often as that.

There's always SOMETHING to think about.  My last workout, my next workout, my next race, reminiscing of a race past, pace, goals, food, cross training, injuries I've had, injuries I'm afraid of, how to prevent injuries, what's packed in my gym bag, shoes I've run in, shoes I want to run in, shoes I would never run in, athletes, training scheds, washing my running socks, wearing out the elastic on my favourite shorts, charging the battery on my ipod, whether I should run with an ipod at all, why I run, why you run, how I have changed as a runner, how running has changed me as a person.  There's a lot to think about, and I enjoy doing so.   No matter what conversation or task you put in front of me, chances are my mind is going to drift off to some running topic, and chances are that I will stay there for a good while.  And you know what?  All this thinking.. it goes nowhere!  So guess what?  Now it's going HERE.

Welcome to my running blog.  Expect ramblings on all things running, updates on what I'm training for, and the spewing of conversations with myself that seem to birth themselves in my crazy head during a long run.

Wahey, gonna be a good time for all!
