7:17 sunrise 20:37 sunset My legs are killing me!  No, really – I think something died in there.  I had to lift my legs out of bed this morning and descending stairs is practically impossible.  Who knew that running 20km for the first time since, oh the 2009 Klondike Road Relay, would result in such massive amounts of pain and [...]

7:14 sunrise  20:40 sunset Well, another Klondike Road Relay completed.  Phew!  I’m still of the mind the running does not deserve my time or attention but I am insanely thankful that my 20k leg 8 went better than expected this morning.  I was super worried that if my knee (IT band/hamstring/fibula?) acted up I would have to walk [...]

7:07 sunrise 20:50 sunset Gah.  Sunrise is already past 7pm now.  Winter’s coming. But, we just spent a weekend of FABULOUS weather in Vancouver.  Yes, that’s right, the city of rain turned into the city of sunshine for four fabulous days.

So I thought I would cheer myself up with a little post on summer.  When I was a kid I [...]

6:13 sunrise 21:56 sunset You’ve probably already seen these shots – or ones like them – since it has already been a couple of months since the New York Senate passed a bill to legalize gay marriage.  But I still love this series.  Look at the smiles!

So if you haven’t seen them – go check out the rest of [...]

Today is my sister Andrea’s birthday. She is 5 years, 3 months and 3 days younger than I am which makes her 33 years old today. Having a sister is complicated business. At least, in my family it is. Andy and I aren’t particularly good friends. Actually, if I am being totally honest, we aren’t friends at [...]

Shoes - Specialized. More or less destroyed in Trans Rockies last year but they’re really comfy

5:34 sunrise

I kept folding over pages in various places that I wanted to come back to and think about. They may sound contrived, when reproduced out of context like this, but the more I think about them, the more [...]
