So I promise that I’m still alive. I realize that having my most recent post be about my surgery makes it seem like something dramatic happened and I wasn’t able to blog for a long time, but alas my only excuse is business and a bit of burnout. This fall ended up being very busy […]

It’s that time of year again to look back at 2020 and start reflecting on things. In the coming days I’ll be posting my traditional biking, running, and overall reflection posts. However, I wanted to take a little bit of time today to talk about what I think the blog will look like next year. […]

You may have noticed that there was no product review this week. That’s because there’s going to be a little bit of blog neglect through the month of September. It’s been a crazy end of August as well, but some of that will be leading in to more content. One of the big changes at […]

I know that I should probably post something here about the current DACA mess, but I feel like a lot of people I know, are already saying what I would say.

It’s a new year, and that means it’s time to start this new year of daily blogging out right. Last year I was very proud of myself for getting something posted every single day. One of the things that helped was to write my entries the day before, and then schedule them to go live first […]
Read moreI’ve been blogging on and off for many years. First, at my old blog called Boolah, and then here on Second Runnings. Sometimes I would go months between blog posts, until last year when I started this daily blogging discipline. The adventure in doing things that are new and exciting, is that sometimes other people […]
Read moreTo kick off the new year I’ve changed the theme of the blog. My usual trend is to customize the default theme for the year. Last year was Twenty Fifteen, so this year is Twenty Sixteen. I don’t do much customization beyond just changing the colors and such, but it’s a fun little exercise each […]
Read moreThis week marks the end of my goal to create something every single day of 2015. Although I’ve been late a couple of times throughout the year, I have managed to create a blog entry of some fashion for every single day. I knew I was a bit worried when I started that I would […]
Read moreI’m quickly approaching 75% completion of my goal of blogging every single day of 2015. It’s been an interesting experience so far, and for the most part I’ve managed to hold to the discipline.
