Quote of the Day

" Running is endangered. Runners are losing the soul of their sport. A sport that started with our ancestors running down dinner and remains to this day predatory at its core. Joggers are prey. Runners are hunters. "

Better than facebook...and more!

This may be a surprise to see me, of all people, with a blog. I'm a bit surprised myself. But its better than facebook, I say.

Today I heard a quote from Boyd K. Packer about adversity that reminded me of a simpler quote from Ken Chlouber: "Make friends with pain, and you will never be alone." First quote of the day. Once you make friends with pain, you find solitude where there once was loneliness. And speaking of solitude, I was seriously thinking today that this might be the year that I finally disappear and run into the mountains for a while. I've talked about it for a long time, but never have done it. I don't know what's keeping me. The time approaches... At any rate, I can't wait to spend some serious quality time camping and hiking in the mountains. Summer is nigh!

  1. If you want some quiet company up there in said mountains, I'm game. Seriously. I love the idea.
