The only things I have planned so far are the Sugarloaf Marathon on May 17th, the Trek Across Maine--a 180-mile charity bike race on June 19th, and possibly the Pumpkinman Half-Ironman triathlon on Sept 12th. We shall see how it all goes though...

Q for 2009... Bayshore (probably) Detroit (definitely) Monkey (maybe)

Just because running is simple does not mean it is easy.

Relentless. Forward. Motion. <repeat>
