Well, it's been brought to my attention (thanks kevin) that I haven't blogged since December, even though I said I would in mid- January. I'm back, but probably not in the way you'd expect. The problem is..... I still haven't run another mile. Ever since that second meet, I've been the only person with enough balls to do all 16 laps. So, for the last four months, I've been having a personal battle to break... eleven. To sum the season up, here's a short list of my major deuce efforts.

1/13/08 - Dartmouth Relays - 11:18.xx - two mile

1/20/08 - Yale Invy - 10:09.79 - 3k [converts to 10:57.xx 3200]

1/27/08 - Suburban Frosh Champs - 11:07.0 - 3200 [and lost by .2]

2/3/08 - Engineer Games - DNF - 5:45 1600 [w-t-f!?!]

In conclusion, being the victim of circumstance of New York weather sucks, with 25 mile weeks through the school hallways. By the time February came round, my knees were shot, I still hadn't broken eleven, and I was still too pissed to even blog anymore. But, the glass is always somewhat full, is it not? Outdoor season is here, my mileage is back up to 40-50 mile weeks, and I can honestly say I feel good again. It won't be soon enough till I'm back on the trails....

Good Luck to everyone this season,

May your legs be muscular, your heart pure, and your crops bountiful.

Love, Andrew
