Charge me up now.

March 2006
(That's a dye job.)
With the life I am currently living, it makes sense that I completely forgot to acknowledge the fact that this blog is twenty years old. "Daddy Runs Fast" began on January 10, 2006. My first run of the new year. I was 37 years old. I was about 170 lbs. I was complaining about belly fat. I had plantar warts. I had a lingering hamstring pull. I would soon develop shin splints. I thought myself old.

I am glad that at that time, I considered 170 lbs. to be "10 pounds overweight." That I knew then what my ideal weight is — which is where I am now. A thing to be proud of. On that date, I ran two miles, and that it was hard. I would run a marathon that November.

Not much changes. I imagine I am no older now than I was then.

I currently have back pain. This began last month, when I participated in stage combat choreography and lasted through the holidays. It went away but recurred this week, I believe because I tried doing some bicycles instead of sit-ups.
