| Hello. |
Today's run, five miles in the rain.
Here it is, nearly the middle of March, and I haven't updated this blog for over two months. What gives?
I could say that it has been a terrible winter for running here in Philly, with snow and ice covering the ground through most of February. I could also tell you about a bad bout of sinusitis which waylaid me for four weeks. But this sounds like nothing but excuses.
Excuses, excuses, excuses...
Where to go from here?
Spring has arrived. The snow is gone. On Sunday we'll turn the clocks forward, providing an extra hour of light at the end of the day, perfect for after work runs. And my sinuses, like the ice clogged streets, have begun to clear.
I'm still determined to run the Dublin Marathon in October -- paid the registration fee, booked the lodging. I've also registered for two other events, Philadelphia's Broad Street Run on May 1, and the Double Creek Half Marathon in York County in mid June.
The Broad Street Run is in seven weeks, and I am woefully out of shape. But I work well against a deadline.
So no more excuses.
And I promise to update my blog more often.
