Blog postMomentos from twenty-three years at IBM sit on my bookshelf. Maybe more are hiding in my desk drawers. I might have lifted my stapler from the office. My history with IBM began when I drove a forklift working on their packaging line the summer of 1981, as part of the production of word processors manufactured in their Austin, Texas facility. I later worked as a computer operator as an intern in 1990 while obtaining my masters from CU in Boulder. I then start

Blog postEver train for and run a marathon? Since 2010, the upcoming Colorado Marathon will be my twelfth. First time to run this particular event, although I did run the 10K associated with it last year. It was a dream run in the May snowfall. This photo above is of the marathon from last year running through Poudre Canyon. If you have run a marathon, then you can likely appreciate my current state of mind.
A marathon on your calendar is like waiting for a hurric -
Blog postI was all set to run my final twenty miler today but instead received a tempting group text last night from the running gang to run Picture Rock. I can run twenty miles tomorrow. My marathon training plan is flexible that way. I haven’t run with the gang in quite some time. It was great seeing everyone for Easter weekend.
We all started out together the first couple of miles. This trail is uphill non-stop for nearly six miles. Keith and I -

Blog postI got nothing this week, so I’m posting this photo of my darling buddy Beth after completing her Paris Marathon this morning. Paris France, not Texas. My buddy Chris will be running the Boston Marathon in another week, on a Monday actually, Patriot’s Day, just before taxes are due. Training for marathons is decidedly less exciting than running them. I need to slog it out for another four weeks before I get my day in the sun.
I need to keep up the boring mileage -

My week of vacation is waning with the final days of winter. I know it’s been spring for the last week, but the mountains celebrate seasons on their own time. Yesterday I ran 15 miles in 50° weather. Today I ran 17 miles in 40° and pouring rain. Tomorrow I’ll run 20 miles in 30° and snow.
The free time has been great for my other hobbies as well. I’ve read a couple of cyber crime books. I’ve been prepping for a book promot -
Blog postEver fall off a chairlift? Me either. Until today. I’ve been skiing for 35 years and today was my first chair lift fail. The Painter Boy lift is extremely close to the ground and my board caught its edge before leaving the base. I flipped over the front of the lift and grabbed the chair to keep it from cleaving off my chin. I held on long enough for some clearance before dropping and rolling out of the way. Ellie didn’t miss a beat though. “I’ll

Blog postEllie and I cross country skied today through Slate Valley. Quite possibly, all of Slate Valley. Trail maps suck. With less than two miles to go, so close we could see the end, we were faced with a trail closed sign. Turning around meant maybe another two miles. We didn’t turn around, we skied right past that sign. A couple of hundred meters later, we were faced with a washed out bridge. I thought we could have jumped it, Ellie is more cautious than m

Blog postBrittany was only five years old the last time we visited Crested Butte. She’s not here with us twenty years later. Someone had to stay home to watch the dogs. So I got to board with Ellie instead. Her first time to Crested Butte. She’s become a much better snow boarder than me. She was carving the snow up today while I was lucky to get on my toes by the end of the day.
We used to come up to Crested Butte with Karen’s family in the early years of ha -

Blog postAfter twenty years of chasing my career and raising kids, I began to redevelop my personal hobbies again in my upper 40s. Probably true for many as your kids became independent and you began to realize some me time. For me, that meant a return to running. I picked up some new hobbies as well, like hiking, backpacking and snowshoeing. I was thrilled each year that, while I was aging, I was also becoming faster. It’s just really satisfying to know you’re improving

Blog postI’ve been going out on some long runs lately. I trained once for a marathon averaging 3 miles a day. It didn’t work out so well. That’s what’s hard about training through the winter, and why end of summer marathons are so much better. Most of my runs this winter have been a race against a sun setting low in the sky. When you run by yourself, anything else that’s moving serves as a fine training partner.
The massive mileage is wearing me down. M -
