New to this bloggity blog stuff

For all of you out there that might do this kind of stuff all the time this whole blog stuff is new to me. Surprising, I realize, me being a hip and up to date 90's kind of guy. In all actuality the only reason I am doing this is for my little sister since she set this whole deal up, so I can show her that I appreciate her time setting it up. And so I can talk smack since right now might be the first time in my life I might be able to take her in some athletic type event. So this is for you Natalie. When you're training just think how you'll feel when your older brother who has to take a handful of chondroitin, omega 3, vitamins, anti-inflammatory and ginko biloba every day is 1/2 a mile ahead of you at the 12.5 mile mark on March 2, 2008. Not to mention the fact that I have to ice everything south of my thighs every night. I will try to keep updating on a daily basis. After reading my sisters posts evidently it is harder to run in Ohio than it is in Kansas.
