i'm in the initial stages ...

... of effort #3 to get back to running (or at least a good healthy jog of sorts). my little schedule is over on the right & more details over here for the activities involved in this (re)effort.

effort #2 was a couple of years ago in early 2006 when i knew i'd be moving back to the bay area & i was looking forward to hanging out with buddies that were totally into running and/or just starting to do so. i got as far as teetering among weeks 4-5-6 and then ... i don't remember why i stopped, but it likely had something to do with being lazy or the heat wave SD was having or the major packing and moving efforts or some other dorky excuse (or a combination of dorky excuses). effort #1 (without the little program) was shortly after my dad died of a heart attack and - well ... it's just one of several things that i did, y'know?! o.k. then ... let's see how things progress!

fun times!
