But, dude, it's cold outside...

So here goes...

2008 is when I got lazy. I didn't run...no major projects...nothin'.

2009 is gonna be different. And I think there's another marathon in the foreseeable future - this year even. My wife asked that I run it for the American Foundation of Suicide Prevention in honor of her father Joe. I will see if they have a team for the Chicago Marathon.

So, if you're asking why my wife isn't going to get her butt out there and run, it's a fair question. Me - 6'6" and skinny - distance runners build. Her - 5'6" with a gymnast's build - not so much distance running. She's the powerhouse in this couple of ours.

So, assuming someone is actually reading this...IT'S ON!!!
