It has almost been two years since my last post!
In those two years I haven't run as much as I would have liked, but I did run the Bird-in-Hand Half Marathon for the second time on September 12, 2015 (2:21:15). I ran that along with some friends from one of my previous jobs, many of which received their "Road Apple Award" that race.

One of the hilights of that weekend was meeting (and taking selfies with) Christopher McDougall, auther of "Born to Run" and "Naturl Born Heroes", the latter of which I received an autographed copy of.

On April 2, 2016, I finished my first trail run, the Mile Run Challange (half-marathon) with Mandy - it was a blast and probably one of the highest "runner's highs" I have ever felt!

I would like to pick running back up this year, and therefore I have set a goal of running 1000 miles in 2017. I also would like to complete another trail run, and a half-marathon but I haven't decided on which ones yet. And....another marathon within the next year or so :-). So, here's to the #2017GoldChallenge - only 998 miles to go!
