It's
the job that's never started as takes longest to finish.

Two
ideas, goals that I have talked about for some time have been to start a
running blog and starting a running streak. I started the latter on 14 December
2013 and, as of today, have successfully ran at least 2 miles each day for 49
days (186 miles total). Not the longest streak by any means, but it has been habit forming: my
streaking changes the question from “if” to “when” I am going to run each day.
I don’t have a hard goal or set date in mind for how long I want to continue
the streak, but “a year” certainly has a nice tone to it.
As
for my other goal of starting a running blog, well here I am. I hope to post
weekly on training, racing, running in Texas, food, and any other thoughts I may
have about running. With an ambitious racing schedule for the year (I plan on
competing for the Texas Trail Running Ultra Championship Under-29 Category and racing
several other races not in the series) I should have enough race reports to
keep this blog interesting.
I'm going wrap this post up, short I know. Next week Ill have a write-up on the Piney Woods
50km where I am volunteering/crewing for my good friend.
