random thought of the moment:
Remember, you will be faulted not because you are ignorant against your will but because you neglect to seek out what it is that makes you ignorant.

2007 Gatorade Steelers 5K
On September 1, I ran the Gatorade Steelers 5K. I finished in a reasonable 25:27 (8:12 pace). I want to break 25:00, so I guess I’ll have to do it at Run Shadyside.The race started at least 15 minutes late because we had to listen to umpteen introductions of honored guests (yawn) and wait for […]
2007 Run Around the Square 5K
On August 25, I ran the Run Around the Square 5K. Since I’d run about 9 miles the day before (in preparation for the IKEA Half Marathon), I treated the race as a tempo run. I finished in 27:59 (9:01 pace), which isn’t great (and is actually kinda slow for a tempo run), but at […]
2007 Brentwood Firecracker 5K
On July 4th, I volunteered for and ran in my first Brentwood Firecracker 5K. It was very well organized, especially considering how large it was (~1300 runners). Registration went smoothly, the race started on time, there was plenty of food (and beer!), and the door prizes were well worth sticking around for. Kudos to race […]
2007 Us Too Fathers’ Day 10K
Well, this year’s Us Too Fathers’ Day 10K wasn’t entirely as bad as last year’s (which, BTW, seems worse in hindsight than it did at the time). It wasn’t great, either.
Pros:
It was a lot cooler than last year.
The walkers started at different time and didn’t collide with […]
2007 Race for the Cure 5K
Yesterday, I ran the Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure 5K. I finished in 25:34 (8:15 pace). I placed 531/2236 overall and 61/134 in my class. That’s not my best 5K time to date, but it’s a lot better than my time at last year’s Race for the Cure. I finished that in 27:30 […]
