Spring Training

Hey peeps, it's been 9 months since my last post.  I'm starting to think that I should make every post title "falling off the wagon".  I had an "okay" fall season, but no peanutbutters.  This past weekend I signed up for Tour de Worcester, which is all of the local races I usually run, but a $5 discount for signing up for all 3.  In addition, I'm signed up for Rock'n'Roll Providence in August and Virginia Beach in September.  Last year wasn't such a good training year between planning a wedding and my coach, brother Jon moving to Boston.  Believe it or not, having him crawl up my ass to make sure I'm training was incredibly helpful.  While David supports my running, being a militant dictator is not his specialty.  I'm using the Nike+ wristband to track my mileage, and I'll start the training plan in April or May.  Tracking things really plays to my OCD sensibilities. 

Next up:  I'm avoiding torturous St. Patrick's Day races, and cheering on brotherJon as he hurls himself across the finish line at the NYC half marathon.
