Something New

It's been a while. I haven't had much to post. I had a very poor race at Princeton in the 800 and then an alright race at Penn in the mile. Things are perking up training wise, and I'm pretty excited about the US Road Mile on May 12th in Minneapolis and then a fast 1500 in L.A. on the 22nd.

BUT, while I haven't been doing much blogging, I have been working on something...

I am officially announcing the end of runLBP. Don't get me wrong, writing a post each week is actually one of my more enjoyable moments. I love to write, and forcing myself to do so each week is something I enjoy doing. There were some weeks where I wouldn't want to, but because I had this blog going, I had to do it. (And yeah, I realized a long time ago that this is a BLOG, even though I hate that word and prefer web-journal (which may sound just as lame).) But, most things come to an end, and with runLBP, it is about that time.

I started up my blog with the hopes that it would make me more marketable and help me get a shoe contract. Wishful thinking, I know, but it does make some sense. What I realized since pretty early on is that you simply have to run fast to get a shoe contract. So instead of writing the blog to get noticed, I was writing a blog for family and friends to stay in touch with my running.

Thankfully, you'll still be able to do that. Because, as I said earlier, I have been working on something else.

It is not ready yet, but it is going to be more than just runLBP. As I mentioned earlier, I love writing, but the project I'm working on is going to allow me to write about more than just running. Hopefully I'll post even more than I do currently because the blog is going to be all encompassing in regards to my likes and dislikes rather than just about running.

So stay tuned on here, because I will link to the new guy as soon as it's up and running.

It has been a pleasure to write runLBP posts for all this time (116 posts!), and for the 25 of you who read every week, thank you so very much...but onto something new now, hopefully you check out what's to come...
