Canadian Derby Half Marathon
Well I finally have an officially clocked half marathon in the books. Coming in with a chip time of 1:44:03, gun time of 1:44:09 and a watch time of 1:44:04. I would say that I did not too bad. I had some hip issues for some unknown reason – they never really bothered me before, [...]
Almost there!
Well there are two things that I wanted to to do as part of my New Year’s resolution. One was run an official 10km, and the second a Half Marathon. Well the Little Big Run is in the bag, and the Canadian Derby Half Marathon is coming up this weekend. I’ve looked high and low [...]
Green Fields
Well after another few kicks to the teeth, I think I have to take a little break and heal up (perhaps literally today after breaking my sandal running across the street) before trekking out into the world of long term stability again. Fate may be telling me that I have to start from a green [...]
4G eh?
Spammers must think us bloggers are real dim lights when they start signing off their spam with “Sent from my iPad 4G”. Really… they must be in a real strong area of the RDF.
WP3!
Well, this update went much smoother than the other WP updates that I have done. At one point I was looking at running both this site and the blog site from within the same WP, but I don’t think that would work. It will be too much of a hassle for me to figure out [...]
Out of Isolation
It looks like my story in the Edmonton Journal has come out of isolation as well and has been syndicated across the Canwest/Global/canada.com system. So I’ve seen it in papers from Vancouver to Montreal often with people asking questions about either the Nike system or motivation along the way. I guess I can now think [...]
Little Big Run
Well, kicking out a new PB of 45:15 was pretty sweet, but getting the whole family (less one who had First Aid training today) was a real win. The weather was giving us every out under the sun (and since it was snowing and raining, there was no sun) so that we all went out [...]
Up in the Air
Well it seems that things are still up in the air. I’m still disrupted, but I’ve got a short term contract in the VPIT’s office doing some really interesting work. I haven’t been sitting still over this involuntary break, I’ve been working on a PhD application as well as my running. I’ve managed three long [...]
Disrupted
The technical language is “my position is being disrupted”. Which is the biz speak for being laid off. Yes, I’m now one of those statistics that you hear about. Me and my entire team. I found this image by accident, but it seems uniquely fitting to my situation. I hope I land on my feet [...]
Bug and the Nexus One
… How my baby is like the Nexus One – Both reasonably new models, but with new revs coming every day, it seems impossible to keep up. Neither are really built to sleep, they want to interact all the time, both are small and peppy and take very little to recharge. Both have alarms that [...]
