Running to stand still

I have never really been big on New Year’s resolutions. Usually by the 3rd I’ve forgotten whatever it was I was supposed to be doing differently. This year’s different, though. If you’ve been following me on Twitter you have probably noticed me posting my five-mile run times. My goal — and it’s a tough one, […]
Los Angeles Marathon XXIII March 6th, 2008 @ 3:40 pm PST
On Sunday I ran the XXIIIrd Los Angeles Marathon. My goal was to beat my time from last year, when I ran it in about four hours and forty-five minutes. Unfortunately I was felled by a wicked flu bug about two weeks ago which knocked me on my ass for a while. I didn’t start […]

Los Angeles Marathon March 5th, 2007 @ 8:50 am PST
When I ran the LA Marathon last year my goal was to finish in five hours. I had trained for about two months and gotten down to a slender 186 lbs, the least I’ve weighed since my last year of college. Because of a disastrous combination of being mentally unprepared for the event and wearing […]

Seeing celebrities in Los Angeles is still pretty cool, even though I’ve lived here for 6+ years now. It seems like they’ve been coming out of the woodwork lately. Here’s a quick summary of the last week or so: On President’s Day I saw Chad Lowe at the Coral Tree Cafe in Brentwood. On Friday […]

Map Your Run February 15th, 2007 @ 3:10 pm PST
For at least a year or two I’ve been waiting for someone to build a web service I could use to map running routes. This morning I drove to my buddy’s house at 6 and we went on a long run around Beverly Hills. With less than three weeks until the LA Marathon, it’s time […]
