Background

Some people may want to know about the reason while some one would want to write a blog about their running. Let me start with my history. I have always wanted to stay in shape and have never been one who could get big Also, like my father said to me as a kid, I can’t run fast but I can run for a while and thanks to his passing this ability on to me. I finally joined cross country in the fall of my last year of high school, and I really enjoyed it. I moved to track in the winter and summer but not liking it as much. But I always liked the idea of running long distances.

This ability to run and stay in reasonable shape, has always manifested itself in running throughout college and into my adult life. I have taken time off with mixing in biking. But being a cheap guy, a pair of sneakers is the cheapest gym membership that I could afford. Upon further reflection, it is something that I have done everywhere I have lived. I lived in Japan, Thailand back in PA where I grew up, and before I came down here to Fredericksburg, what I did when I wanted to get away was go for a run. But running is something that I have found that I have gone back to like I did with cigarettes. Every so often, I would go back to smoking, just like I would go back to running. It has only been in the last few months that I have really understood my passion for the sport. And this passion has recently reached a new level.

The one thing that I have to admit throughout all my travels, running is something that I can do anywhere, all I need to remember is to bring a pair of shoes. Being a little lazy, I can always remember to bring a pair of shoes. At any rate that is my running background.
Keep fleet of feet.
