Please let me know of any topics you'd like me to discuss, keeping in mind that I'm probably newer to this than most of you. That is, if you want a post about the scientific merits of one running shoe relative to another, then I'm going to be in over my head before I even start. But if you want to hear about the dangers of having a couple of Coronas the night before a 6:00 a.m. training run, then I'm your guy. I won't make that mistake twice... Mom - We need to find you a better alias. I'm catching a lot of heck at work about my mommy posting comments on the blog. All – I appreciate the support.
