Sunday was the final race of the Northland Progress Series sponsored by The Running Well Store. Perhaps next week I will do a post on the series as a whole, if something else doesn't come up of more topical interest. Today, however, I am going to concentrate on this week, and specifically the half marathon. … Continue reading Fitness Update: Northland Half and 5K

Creational and relational type Renaissance man (writer, singer, thinker) holding to C.S Lewis's credo that if you follow truth originality takes care of itself, (anyway, originality is so yesterday, anyway.) That I have my wonderful wife Jasini is proof enough for me that life isn't fair. If it was fair I wouldn't have her, and instead she is my most faithful example that I am blessed beyond measure. My two adult children are the same unmerited blessing to me. We should all be thankful life is not fair but blessed.

A Blast of the Past #93: India, Part 4
I spent two weeks in India, which means I had one weekend between them -- one free weekend. So I flew halfway across the country from Mumbai to Bangalore. Why? Because I had friends there.

Fitness Update: Overdoing It
This week I want to address the question of overdoing it? How does one know if one is overdoing it? And what does it mean to overdo it? This week I swam 2000 yards, ran 17 miles and biked 120 miles, so it isn't the total amounts of things I am talking about, but specific … Continue reading Fitness Update: Overdoing It

Worlds of Fun: First Weekend Impressions
It is an interesting fact: Worlds of Fun is an amusement park, with rides. I and my family have been there every day so far they have been open, and none of us have ridden a ride yet.
