2009 Year End Running Totals

Why I Run

“Do you not know that in a race the runners all compete, but only one receives the prize? Run in such a way that you may win it. Athletes exercise self-control in all things; they do it to receive a perishable wreath, but we an imperishable one. So I do not run aimlessly, nor do I box as though beating the air; but I punish my body and enslave it, so that after proclaiming to others I myself should not be disqualified.”

- 1 Corinthians 9:24-27

Here we go again....

Sorry...

It's been another month and I haven't contributed much to the blog (in fact, none at all). I've also not officially run, at least outside in a month. Part of the reason has been the addition of our puppy, Sophie. I haven't quite figured out how to sneak out of the house in the morning without waking her, which in turn wakes everyone else. Tomorrow I'm going to try it anyway. Worse comes to worse, I'll start taking her with me!

The good thing is that I've been working out at lunch time, so I have done some running/elliptical/bikes there, as well as lifting. Unfortunately, the lack of outside distance is not helping me to keep my weight down as I've jumped to my highest in years!

But we'll see what this week brings.
