Just returned from the IU Health Center. I decided my ankle pain was nagging me enough to warrant a trip to the doctor. They took my temperature and blood pressure, and those seemed to be fine, offering no clues as to the cause of my ankle pain. Then the doctor brought me into his room…

Talk about a whirlwind tour of San Diego…I was back in the land of my Alma Mater for the last day and a half. It was nice to get back, as brief as it was. It’s hard to remember how great the weather is there. Those who live there now: you don’t know how lucky…

My ankle hurts. Badly. It’s been in pain all day. About a mile into my 3 mile run this morning it started to be a touch painful, but I just ran through the pain. Big mistake. I won’t be doing that again. I’ve been limping all day, and even a bit depressed about the idea…

If you’re a friend or family member, you’ll soon be receiving more information about my marathon training, and the cause that I am supporting, the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society. Even if you’re not a member of my…

I’ve put up the new runTracker utility that I built this evening! In case you didn’t notice, it’s on the top left area of the screen. It will let you know a little about my last five runs. At the bottom you will note the number of total miles I have run throughout my training.…
