Social Networking

I’m not into the whole social networking scene. Not that I have anything against it, but I don’t really need any more distractions or things to occupy my time.

However, I am into Athlinks, check it out. Here is my personal profile and here is the RunColo Group. Feel free to add me, I may or may not let you be my friend, it all depends on the thorough vetting process that you must undergo. I make no promises.

I think the rivals portion on Athlinks is tremendous and I love being able to look at all of my entire old race results in a convenient format. They must be adding to their database, because recently my Bix 7 race result from 1996 (I was 18) showed up, you can go ahead and subtract 15 seconds from my time, those were in the pre-chip timing days! I also noticed that now you have to be a member to review others race results, smart on the part of Athlinks, I’m sure this will help boost membership.

I’m running the Resolution 5k this Wednesday. My taper has been going extremely well. Since the California International Marathon, I have managed to run five times, with the furthest run being 5.5 miles. Thus, my legs should be especially fresh and ready to race! I’m also quite confident that I have managed to put on at least five pounds since CIM, but I refuse to step on the scale.
