A Reluctant Runner
I didn't come to running easily. In fact, I grew up in the shadow of an older brother who was a super star runner, so even though I tried it out back in high school, it never quite clicked with me. However, now that I'm older and no longer feel the need to try to run fast, I've become somewhat addicted to the high that I get from my long, slow runs. My brother would call me a jogger because what I do doesn't look much like running :-). I share my runs with my labrador mix named Zach, and with friends and co-workers. When I'm not running, I spend a fair amount of time on the Internet, reading books and puttering around the house. I hope you enjoy this site. Please e-mail me feedback on the site, and feel free to ask me any questions.

I hope that you enjoy runnning and that you attain your goal of finishing a marathon.

Dave
