You Sleep, I Run: Nothing in Particular
http://stonemountain27.blogspot.com/2009/11/nothing-in-particular.html
You Sleep, I Run. I haven't had time for the Surf the Murph. I'm definitely not ready for reconstructive surgery. When surgery DOES happen I'm most likely going with the allograft (cadaver). Given my age and impatience I think it is the best choice for quick recovery. I just want to run in a relatively straight line. Nothing fancy.

Ross' Ultra Ramblings: A letter to myself
http://rossjilk.blogspot.com/2012/02/letter-to-myself.html
An outlet for the thoughts of an obsessive. My current obsessions include ultra trail running, biochemistry, nutrition, music, politics and reading. Friday, February 10, 2012. A letter to myself. Hi there Sad Sack,. First, definitely do that 50K you are reconsidering on Feb. 12th. That was a tough run, and the trails were icy, but it really helped around mile 58, just around Sonju Lake to remember that run. Believe me, that extra snack just isn't worth it. Keep up the core work. I saw a version of us...

Life is an exercise (Walk/Bike/possible run?): November 2014
http://runlondell.blogspot.com/2014_11_01_archive.html
Life is an exercise (Walk/Bike/possible run? Sunday, November 30, 2014. RIP my hairy friend. My girlfriend called me yesterday while I was in Duluth on a short vacation. She informed me she had to make the decision to put Jackson, the best Golden Retriever I have ever known, down. She needed to do it, sooner than later. Just like Annie before him, he was recently riddled with health issues in his old age (over 77 dog years). For almost two months his health diminished. Jackson was no ordinary dog. He alw...

Life is an exercise (Walk/Bike/possible run?): September 2014
http://runlondell.blogspot.com/2014_09_01_archive.html
Life is an exercise (Walk/Bike/possible run? Friday, September 26, 2014. Another Month, another life taken…. I spent the better part of the morning crying for someone I had only briefly known. A young man of 16 decided life was not worth continuing and ended his life. That makes 8 people I knew personally this year and then there are the four I knew of but no personal connection who took their lives as well. I will never understand, but at times I wonder if I do? I explained life is what we make of it.

Life is an exercise (Walk/Bike/possible run? Monday, March 23, 2015. Tonight I spent time going through my photo library. I am hoping to be very organized going into the 2015 photo season.

An outlet for the thoughts of an obsessive. My current obsessions include ultra trail running, biochemistry, nutrition, music, politics and reading. Tuesday, November 15, 2011. Sawtooth 2012 training plan - the backbone. Sawtooth 2012 is ten months away. That means it is time to start preparing for my next attempt. I need to be much better prepared than I was this year, both mentally and physically. I have spent a lot of time thinking about I can do this, and will share my plans here. The next weekend wi...

Challenge yourself: August 2009
http://johnmaas.blogspot.com/2009_08_01_archive.html
Sunday, August 16, 2009. I qualified for Boston! Well, maybe not really. Problem is, I did not run my marathon on a "certified" course. And, I wasn't actually running a marathon at the time. I'm just trying to prepare myself for the upcoming Superior Trail Run 50 (52.1 miles Larry - you are a sick man) on September 12. Now, it seems I take that for granted. I don't. I am thankful for the talents and skills God has given me. At 8:14 - I needed to bring it down to 8:00. Kept pushing a little faster eve...
