PROGRESS IN A NUTSHELL. . .

As of September October 6, 2008 I have shifted my training schedule to run-commuting to work 4 days a week (a 10.6 mile round trip).

Also, I am now running the Atlanta Weather Channel Marathon on November 27, 2008. Unfortunately the Team In Training Program has frozen my donation page, so I am sad to report that it is not possible to donate to my campaign any longer. I would like to thank all those who have donated time, resources, encouragement and prayers.

18-Miler

On Saturday August 31, I completed an 18-mile run. I missed running with the Auburn-Oplelika Running and Track Association (AORTA) due to having to help a college student passed out on the road from a little too much Friday night partying. He was lucky to be alive and to have his truck that he was allegedly driving and abandoned in the middle of the road prior to passing out. Instead of the comaraderie of my AORTA friends, I instead got to ride on the Spirit of the community that was preparing for the first Auburn University Home game of the season. I have never seen so much community spirit across the board in any other town. Again, no hip lexor problem, but I did have a tight IT band that caused some trouble at my knee. Icing and stretching seem to take care of it though.
