Finally, A Cold Run

Today's Run: 8.06m
Run Time: 1:25:41 (10:38/mile)
Total Miles to Date: 770.7

Thoughts on the Run:

Wow! It's been a busy few weeks.

I apologize for not keeping up to date with a lot of things. I haven't written new articles, haven't kept my nutrition up to date nor have I posted much ... however, there are a few things I have done: consistently kept up with my training and stayed focused on healthy eating. In fact, I'm down several pounds since I started posting my stats.

This week has been just an incredibly abundant week. The company I'm helping build is growing quickly. I came on board as the fourth person in the venture and was the entire technology department. Now there is a networking person, several operations people who handle our data centers, and half a dozen on the development staff. Needless to say, building a company takes time and effort and I've been putting in my share. It is rewarding and I've learned more in the past few years than I had in double that time prior. With so much going on it's meant getting home late, going on late night runs, and then what time I have left spent with my wife and daughter before I catch up on sleep.

This comes and goes in waves and whenever I do have the extra time I focus my energy on building the site and content, so I appreciate the connection I have with everyone who visits and your patience and understanding.

Tomorrow is an exciting day as well. My daughter received credentials to attend the Taste of Atlanta and has several interviews scheduled. My wife and I are "tagging along" as photographer and director. I'm looking forward to tasting lots of great foods and watching my daughter work her magic during the interviews.

Next week is my wife's birthday. Wow! Time flies. So I believe this will be the eleventh birthday we've celebrated together (yes, our 10-year anniversary is coming up in 2008).

Tonight I was focused on finishing my run and earning the right to enjoy myself at the festival tomorrow. I was able to pump out faster than an eleven minute mile on some good hills over 8 miles so I'm very happy with the run. I have a fast run tomorrow which I'm debating whether I'll squeeze in early or late, and then Sunday is a sixteen mile run before I taper again for my half marathon on October 27th.

Take care and have an abundant weekend,

Jeremy Likness
