Another Year Bites the Dust


My Birthday? NO. It’s my 59th runnerversary.

I began this fabulous journey as a runner back on this day in 1966. Also on that day, the Beatles kicked off their last US tour AND….. the Pirates beat the Reds 14-11. 115 years earlier Singer patented the sewing machine. Seems like my launching this love of running was considerably more important than any of these events.

Interestingly, the last 3-4 months have been pretty good. Outside of a major fall and some occasional flareups, I'm in a decent space: slow and happy.

Since my 58th, I’ve covered 2104 miles. Here’s to another year down. Next comes 60!

Not much else to say this morning, gotta go run.

Taking some time off.  Rough runs in Idaho. Irresponsible eating (meaning almost none)  and a complete lack of water. Result: Severe dehydra...
