I am Doug. I am 47 years old. I am running out of time. This blog/website started 5 years ago because of all the curiosity/questions that people had surrounding my first marathon. I finished my marathon . . . I have since ran 2 more marathons and an ultra marathon. ..I still run . . .and I still write . . .and I'm still running out of time.
Still been training for half marathon in Chicago on January 25th along Lake Michigan. Have been training for the cold by heading out between 4:30AM and 5:30AM . . . .On Sunday morning my buddy and ran about 4 miles straight into a 15 mph wind in the 15 degree, dark, icy, uphill morning - it was a spirit breaker.
Heading out tomorrow morning ..calling for 20 below temps!!
My repaired knee is doing fine..other than a hip issue the only real problem I have is that my handheld water bottle freezes at mile 4!!
THIS SONG HAS BEEN ON REPEAT IN MY MIND THE LAST COUPLE OF DAYS! JOSH GARRELS ..DON'T WAIT FOR ME.
