A Blast of the Past #90: India, Part 1
Today's blast of the past is going to be more of a travelogue, with multiple photo plates, instead of one big photo plate. I had the privilege of travelling to India for two weeks for work in 2007.

The disappearance of ‘alleluia’
For someone like myself who grew up in a very non-liturgical Baptist church, some of the liturgical traditions seem a little crazy, or extreme.

This week was the build-up to the Sham Rock and Run on Sunday. I started with 5K run on Monday along the streets around my house.

Me, I like a clean kitchen, and I take the spare moments along the way to try and clean up what I can so there is less to do at the end. Now, this can be frustrating, since I live in a family of … Continue reading Cleaning up as you go along …
Fitness Update: wind/breath
This past week was a recovery from the cold/cough week. Â I didn't do much of anything until Wednesday of last week, and then it was just a bike trip to work and back. But by Friday I was ready for a short run, and by Saturday I was ready to try my weekly long run. … Continue reading Fitness Update: wind/breath
Fitness Update: Race Training
Last week I reported on my 5K. Well, four weeks from the 5K is the 10K. So I need to be training for the 10K and on to the half marathon six weeks later. That requires a training regimen.
