Topeka's redemption...

...Comes in the form of an awesome trail not 1/8th of a mile from our place! Landon Trail, I found out on a nice 7 mile run, not only connects to the entire trail network of Topeka, but it also goes another 15 miles south of Topeka at least! Woohoo! This to me, is a very happy thing because I hate, hate, hate running through city roads. Asphalt is heck on runner's legs, and I passionately dislike running around town, especially with Dan and Anne in tow. So, this will be awesome!

On the Road Again

Well, it's been since Fall XC season since I've made any effort to run consistently, and now is the time to do it. My goal? Lose 25 lbs in three months. I would like to run another marathon, maybe two, depending on where we are at, but more than that, I would like to keep running. But, I'm doing things a little different this time around by biking and dieting. I've never been one to be consistent at either, but given my tendency to get bored with running daily (yeah, me get bored running, go figure!) I'll switch it up.
