Personal:

born in 1964. married 25 years. one wife one dog

6 ft tall, nation wide

"Engaging in a little suffering — however self-imposed, arbitrary and contrived — before breakfast each morning tends to demand some humility and injects some marked relief into the rest of the day, making things sharper, more inspired, more immediately aware of the powerful presence of being. And that seems really worthwhile." A. Krupicka

 

"I cruised down hills, churned up hills, and floated over the asphalt, existing in a world that seemed to lack the confinements of such ubiquitous rivets as time, obligation, or pain. I knew then that this was destined to be one of those serendipitous runs for which so many of 
us strive yet so rarely achieve." J. Nevels

3 miles on the treadmill - walked for a 1/4 mile, ran 3 miles, walked for 3/4 mile. piriformis "injury" is very slowly improving (it's been 4 weeks). i'm just grateful that i can run on it. i'm hoping that by keeping these runs short and easy with some big breaks inbetween things will strengthen and heal over time.

2 miles - snowbasin/sardine peak - slushy packed trail made "running" difficult - covered 2.5 miles round trip but ima logging 2 miles. hoping the unstable footing is good therapy for my piriformis situation.
