Running
Over the last 10 months running has become a major part of my life. It seems to have snuck up on me. It has gone from a chore I was doing to lose weight to something that I really enjoy and miss when I am unable to do it. It has really surprised me how …

Project 365-228: Betrayed…
Today I headed out for my run like usual. Though it didn’t end like usual, about 2 maybe 3 minutes into my run I feel something in my leg. My calf to be precise, at first I thought it was nothing and tried to run on. That unfortunately didn’t work out. I soon found my self …

Project 365-197: One of the Perks of Riding to work
Today was the second day that I cycled to work, it has always seemed like a daunting task, because the trip seems like it’s entirely up hill. It’s a gradual slop most of the time, but except for a few place on the ride home I’m heading up hill. Of course that means the ride …
