Q4 2007 Exercise recap
Was looking around, and noticed that in the 4th quarter of last year (well, really the last 2 months – from 10/29 to 12/31) I biked 562.8 miles (and ran that final backwards 0.8 miles) 563.6 miles over 62 days is 9.09 miles every day. Subtracting the 9 Sundays that I did not run it’s…

Laptop update
As first noted here and then expounded upon here, here, here, here and here I am in the middle of snagging a free laptop. Just because my last post (containing the pic of my first arrived rebate check) in this vein was on October 1st, I do not want you to think that all is…

Ron Paul signs!
So, as I mentioned over in my 2007 Tour de Madeira report, Ron Paul had a 100% lead in the political signs in Madeira OH. (I am in the unique position to report that fact, given that I toured every house in a 4 hour period. Though I guess I could have missed someone with…

The 1000 mile man
Ah…. the 1000 mile man… Sounds much better than a One Minute Man… So, as was first outlined here and then further commented upon here, here, here, here and here, I had a goal for 2007 of 1000 miles of exercise. Thanks mostly to the Tour de Madeira, I entered today (“the last day” as…

Fantasy Football 2007 recap

Here’s one song that I really like. It’s called “The SUV song”. Here’s a quote from the lyrics Both: Oh you…

Tour de Madeira 2007
I successfully ran the Tour de Madeira 2007 yesterday. Full recap over at Every Whatever With the 52 miles I did on Saturday, that gives me a new weekly record (102.8 miles), and also puts me at 952.5 miles for the year, meaning I need to do just 47.5 miles the rest of the year…

Dear Active.com – you suck
Active.com – you are dead to me. For a few years I have been using CoolRunning.com as my exercise logger. For the past few months I have seen notices that they would be migrating their data over to Active.com. The “transition” was this past weekend and boy did it go badly. Much of the data…

Breakin the law…breakin the law law law
So I was heading up to the Y this morning to work out. I actually got out a little earlier than I normally do because I wanted to swing by our new house to take some pictures of the tree that they chopped down last week. So then I was heading up to the Y…
