Bluemont 5K, Check!

Bluemont 5K, Check!

It’s official, the Bluemont 951′ 5K 2010 is officially over and I finished!! I finished in 41:55 minutes… not bad considering I was shooting for finishing in 40:00 minutes, I only missed my mark by a tiny bit.

[C25K] I Ran TWO Miles!!!!!

[C25K] I Ran TWO Miles!!!!!

I feel…. FANTASTIC! After some serious thinking about this C25K program I got really scared that if I started on March 1st I was nearly positive that I’d fail… quit… or otherwise completely flop. So, I decided the best thing to do is start early; it’s now or never. So, if not March 1st I [...]

[ICB] Couch to 5K in just 9 weeks

[ICB] Couch to 5K in just 9 weeks

Last year, Christina and I developed a blog meme that we called “Individually Collective Blogging” or ICB. We originally developed it in preparation for writing our Collective NaNovel for NaNoWriMo. And while collective noveling didn’t go as swimmingly as we had thought it would, collective blogging is still fantastic. 2010 should be a fun year [...]
