I Run-Draw These Streets

Sometimes as a mature adult with responsibilities and goals you have to wake up at 5:30 in the morning, put on your running shoes and go out and run 8 miles... in the shape of a dick.

So that's what RunKeeper and I did this morning on the streets of Chicago.

I feel so accomplished:


Thank you to the original dick-runner for the inspiration. My crude run-drawing skills are nothing to yours Claire.

Chicagoland's First Annual February Fool's Goal Half Marathon/Debacle Completed!

If you were outside running yesterday, or even if you were just sitting inside looking out the window, you are probably aware that yesterday was a terrible weather day. All day.
