And no new blogs. Guess I should fix that.

  • I’ve run a full 5K twice in the past week! Very slowly, but I did it. Now I’ve got to start speeding things up.
  • Finally got my Christmas present. Pics to come…
  • Bells will be ringing

    Well, now it appears that *four* of my friends will be getting married between now and June. Just so you know, y’all disgust me 😉

    Slow and steady wins ninth place

    I ran in my first race last Saturday – it was only two miles, but it’s a start. My time was 21:42, which was a little faster than I anticipated. This particular event didn’t have awards for finishing first, second, etc., but rather who was closest to their estimated time. So before the race I guessed I would run it in 22:00, and was only off by 18 seconds, so I got a nice little plaque for ninth place.

    Next up – the Mule Day 5K Kick. This one is going to be a lot harder. Murfreesboro (where the last race was) is generally flat, the one in Columbia is all hill, and an additional 1.1 miles to boot. If I break 30 minutes, I’ll be very happy.

    Anniversary

    Wednesday I celebrated my six month post-chemo anniversary – my last treatment was on September 3, 2003. Had a good checkup on Tuesday, and got my lab results back today which were good as well. So I guess the next important date is May 23 – which will be a year from my initial diagnosis.
