My First Blog

So this is my first ever blog entry. Who knows if I am going to stick with it or even if I am going to enjoy doing it. It seems like a good place to vent off all the random thoughts I have in my head everyday, so we will see what happens. Chances are this blog will be read by no one and entertaining to even fewer... but ohh well. Maybe it will be cathartic (sp?) for me.

So this whole getting a cold thing sucks. This is the second cold I have had in about 3 months. Because of the cold, I skipped running the last two or three mornings and I am planning on taking the day off tomorrow as well. I am running the ugly mudder sunday, so maybe the cold is a bit of a tapering in disguise. Granted if I cough up a lung on saturday, I am not sure how much tapering will help my race time. Hopefully I will get back on the road on saturday to make sure my legs still work. It will be my first trail race and looks to be a sloppy one!!

Being a minnesota boy at heart, it pains me to whine about the weather, but come on... lets finish up with the snow already. I can't wait for spring...
