This afternoon I finished my 500 mile challenge with an 8 mile "run" at the YMCA, where I completed nearly all of my miles for the year. Much like when I completed my first half marathon in 2007, the end of the challenge was decidedly slower...

Like the man on the right, I may be slowing down, but I'm definitely not done. Here we are with 11 days left to go in 2012. Depending on how you count it, I either have 36 or 16 miles left to go. I'm thinking I'll go with the 16 count. If...

Photo courtesy of Malene Thyssen As of yesterday afternoon, I have run 244 miles for the year! I had planned to be up to 245 today, but apparently having Indian buffet for lunch at 11:30 is not a good plan if you intend to run five miles at 4:00 p.m....

According to Wikimedia , this is a photograph of the 1896 Olympic marathon. Somehow, I thought the runners would look more official. We're wrapping up July, and my running challenge is not going well. Not at all. Rather than reaching the halfway point...
