I eat, therefore I am

Posted on September 19, 2009 by Dave

Wow.  It’s amazing to me that when I’m not running, I eat like a pig.  This past week was a “no running zone” week.  I decided not to run and see if my knee would heal up.  I finally headed … Continue reading →

What Happened to Fall?

Posted on October 11, 2008 by Dave

I think last weekend it was 75 degrees and sunny.  Today it’s 40 degrees and raining.  I’m not sure what the rest of the week will bring, but it’s crazy.  I’m sure it’s global warming and them damn Republicans.  In … Continue reading →
