5:00 AM Saturday morning the alarm clock goes off. My hand starts instinctively slapping at buttons, “Make it stop! Make it stop!” Just as I start to drift back into the depths of some remote dreamworld I am once again disturbed, only this time my brain is wondering, “What is that noise!?… Oh yeah. Geez. …
So you decided to get yourself a new iPod… or at least a new MP3 player, right? Now you are running much better and taking your tunes with you thanks to your sports armband of choice. Wait. You’re not still using those factory earbuds that come with the player are you? No, no, no, no. …
“There wasn’t even anyone in front of him!” she fumed as we passed the black dually pickup truck. There was one guy driving the truck which was loaded with a bunch of various boards, ladders, buckets and other things that would indicate that this may be a working man. Yet this was not the first …
I’m rounding the corner and I can see it. It’s the two mile marker up ahead. It’s also the point at which I start the second lap in my run. Everything about today, however does not feel good. I do NOT want to keep running. Every fiber in my being wants to give up. I …

So, what did you do for Easter? My ten month old daughter and I eased on back on my mother’s sofa for a nice afternoon nap. Of course my wife could not pass up the opportunity to capture the moment, which also coincidentally provides proof of my snoring, on video. Here for your viewing pleasure …
Oh yeah! It’s sleek. It’s svelte. It’s oh so cool. But I’m jumping the gun aren’t I? I’m giving you the conclusion at the beginning of the review (he said wiping the drool from the side of his mouth). Now in the past I haven’t been the type to listen to music while running. In …
I had a good run today. The pace was nice and slow, but not a snail’s pace. I was so busy thinking about my blog and what features I was going to add next that I really wasn’t thinking about the run all that much. That tends to make the run seem a lot shorter. …
I love the products sold by Dispair, Inc. They basically parody the motivational posters that became so popular in work places in the late 80s and 90s. They are called demotivators.
