random thought of the moment:
It is true that I am of an older fashion; much that I love has been destroyed or sent into exile.

2006 HealthAmerica XC Challenge
I’m sure my significantly reduced posting frequency has already made it obvious that I’ve been rather busy lately. I’m in the midst of wrapping up my masters project. Soon after that’s finished, I’ll be preparing for comprehensive exams. If anyone - current and wannabe guest bloggers alike - would like to help with filling in […]
2006 Run Shadyside 5K
On Saturday I ran in the 2nd Annual Run Shadyside 5K. I beat my previous best 5K by 2:30! My new PR (according to my stopwatch) is 24:30 (24:36, officially). Perhaps a sub-55:00 Great Race 10K is within reach after all. I placed 154/371 overall and 29/37 among 25-29 males. Update 09/20/06: […]
2006 IKEA-Montour Trail Half Marathon
I ran my first half marathon. Woohoo! Saturday was the 11th Annual IKEA-Montour Trail Half Marathon. I finished in 2:11:44 according to my watch, 2:12:04 officially (499/619 overall, 46/49 men 25-29). That's almost exactly the 10 min/mile pace I'd planned. I'm still giddy with the sense of accomplishment. I […]
2006 Pittsylvania Mile Run
I ran the Pittsylvania Mile today. I was the only guy in the 20-29 group, and 30-39 was empty, so I ended running with the 40-49 crowd. They all kicked my butt. That’s OK, though, because I wasn’t running to beat anyone but myself. A couple months ago, I set a goal for myself to […]
2005 Pittsylvania XC Challenge 6K
I ran the 7th Annual Pittsylvania XC Challenge 6K, which was hosted by the Western Pennsylvania Track Club. I’ve joined WPTC and I ran as part of their 5-man 20-29 team (I placed 4th). Unfortunately, there weren’t any other teams in that bracket, we were only eligible to win the open (LOL).
I didn’t […]
