28/04: Podcast Episode #8 - Scanning for Threats (and some post race party stuff)
Monday, April 28, 2008Left click to LISTEN NOW or right click to DOWNLOAD.
In episode #8, I mention a few things about safety threats you may encounter on the road. Have you ever had a confrontation with a motorist or juvenile delinquent when running? If you have, here are a few things you might consider the next time it happens. Send me an email or leave a comment on this blog if you've ever had a strange situation out there.
On a lighter side, I also talk in the podcast about some great post-race parties I've been to after road races. I'm talking about race sponsored parties! There's nothing like having a nice adult beverage after a double digit road race. Listen to the podcast and see what I'm talking about.
My email is hsodpk@yahoo.com if you have any comments, or use the 'comments' feature attached to this blog.
Enjoy!

17/04: Podcast Episode #7 - Group Running
Thursday, April 17, 2008Episode #7 is up.
Left click to LISTEN NOW or right click to DOWNLOAD.
In this episode, I share some thoughts about the power of the group run for completing long distances. I've found the group run experience to be very beneficial. Have you?
People do things in a group that they would never do alone. I think this is why some people who run marathons look back and wonder how they ever did it. It's actually quite remarkable.
I hope you enjoy the podcast. Feel free to leave a comment below or shoot me an email at hsodpk@yahoo.com.
Comments are welcome!

15/04: The Power of the Group
Tuesday, April 15, 2008Tax Day...for procrastinators...well, good luck! For others, electronic filing is wonderful. We already have our refund and it's pretty nice. Thank you, Uncle Sam!
I'm currently working on podcast episode #7 and the topic is the power of the 'group run.' I participated in the Blunts Bridge Challenge over the weekend and will include some thoughts about its brutality in the next podcast. I would like to thank all of the out-of-towners who came to Ashland to run the route (especially Todd Callis!). Many thanks to Tom Grant for organizing it and dropping the water/gatorade cooler at the halfway mark. Tom, do I owe you any money?
I'm gradually increasing my mileage after a little hiatus from double digit runs. Due to the overuse injury I suffered in my knees last year, I thought it would be wise to chill a bit and get back into it gradually. Three and four mile runs just don't really do it for me so I guess I need to get on the weight machine and get those quads stronger.
Episode #7 will be out before the weekend.
