Merry Christmas to all. I know I will be sitting around most of the day eating and drinking so I can get a bit fatter so I must work just a little bit harder come the first of the year to get down to my goal weight for the year. Hope your day goes as well as mine.

I haven’t done anything exciting. It just a fact of life that I can’t be the life of the party every day, all the time. I have a feeling it will be this way until after the new year. I plan on doing some hiking while home for Christmas, but thats about all.

It has been a few days since I have been able to post. I have done a few exciting adventures since I last posted. I went for a 14.26 mile hike with more than 4700 ft of climbing that took about 7 hours. I rode the trainer a few times on the bike and most recently explored Body Worlds in the Boston Science museum. I must say they were all very exciting except the part of riding my bike inside. But I will try to post more regularly as that is the whole point of a website.

Activity-Running
Time-28.23
Distance-5k

Well that distance is a little ify.  When I clocked my route with my jeep, I clocked it at 3.1 miles.  Today I used my new Timex watch system and it came back as only being 2.84 miles.  Who knows what is right at this point.  I think the jeep might be right being the sky was full of clouds and was pouring quite hard.  Which wasn’t that much fun.  Running in the rain, in 38 degree weather.  I did it with out the ipod on tonight just to see how went without music.  All I really heard was my feet pounding the pavement, and me huffing and puffing.  Many athletes always say this is when the race is won, with all the preperation.  All I can say is that I better win something, that is as long as I have the heart to actually enter one of the races I want to do.  I will be getting that list posted sometime soon.
