Hello, I’m back.

It’s been a while since I last posted here, and I use “a while” loosely because it’s actually been about 4 years, 2 months, and about a week.

I’m not entirely sure why I haven’t written anything in all this time, and it’s not as if I haven’t been running or anything (although to be fair, it generally has been an odd few years has it not?). I guess I just haven’t felt like it, and that is probably reason enough. Now, and just as it appears the robots are poised to take over writing everything, I’ve once again got the urge to commit some organic, free-range, and totally human-generated thoughts and feelings for posterity, as something for myself to look back on when all is said and run, and occasionally for the few who might actually find their way here, be a source of inspiration, commiseration, collaboration, or good old fashioned amusement.

For the record, since I last posted on Feb 10th, 2019 I have:

• Run 925 times
• Covered 6,323 miles
• Climbed 248,000 feet
• Burned 727,000 calories
• Completed 4 marathons
• Spent 993 hours doing the above
• Had COVID more than once
• Had calf and foot injuries that sat me down for maybe 6 months in total
• Written zero words about running

More soon. Keep running.
