For the first time ever, I’ve broken the 100 mile month barrier in my training. I hit 100.1 miles tonight, and I’m proud of it. Considering that I’ve been sick most of the week, and that I’ve been coughing like made all week, I’m glad I got anything in.
I’ve been concerned about my [...]

It’s been almost two weeks since I’ve posted. I apologize to my readers (all 3 of them), I’ve been very busy lately. Let’s see, since my last update, I’ve had two good running weeks (26 and 28 miles), I’ve started my fund-raising, and I’ve gotten sick…again.

As I have reported here before, my wife has been concerned about my heart and lungs when it comes to me running the Flying Pig. So, I have been cleared by my pulmonologist, with a few reservations. Those are fairly minor, hydration and sodium levels. Both of which are fairly easy to control, and I’ve [...]
