Still running
Wednesday Jan 03, 2007
I haven't blogged about running for a while, maybe because it's just taken up a routine part of my life, not an all consuming passion like it is when I'm doing marathon training. I'm just training for a half marathon this winter, and I have to say I like running fewer miles and not devoting so much time, particularly on weekends, to running.
Since I decided not to do a marathon this winter, that knocked me out of even starting the Austin Distance Challenge right away. So I've only felt compelled to run one race, the IBM Uptown Classic 10K back in early October. I contemplated others, but due to conflicts or just not being interested, I haven't done any.
I was originally training for the AT&T Austin Half Marathon on February 18, 2007, but due to yet another Cub Scout conflict, I'm going to run the 3M Half Marathon on January 28. I wanted to run both, but I made a vow not to let my running get in the way of Cub Scouts or family activities this winter, and have done well with it.
Finally, I was happy to see fellow runner and Sun blogger Scott has taken up running again. Keep it up Scott!
