First Post
February 23, 2009First post of a new blog. I feel like I should say something witty and profound…but I don’t want to set you up for disappointment. Anyone that knows me knows that I’m not a journo, a writer or an English student so this will probably be poorly written and, at times, completely incoherent. What I am, though, is a runner. Welcome to my running blog.
So why blog about running? Well, for a couple of reasons. Firstly, my long-standing livejournal blog; Chronicles of Sai, is 90% hidden from the public eye and I fancied writing something accessible to everyone. My two housemates both have WordPress blogs and so blogging has become a bit of a hot topic in the house. Secondly, writing a training blog will help me stay motivated for my next running event, and allow you, the viewers at home, to follow the trials and tribulations of my attempts. I’m also hoping that, by bearing witness to all this, you’ll be encouraged to sponsor me to run whichever overly-optimistic distance I’ve chosen for that year in the name of charity. And then when you do sponsor me you at least feel you’re getting your money’s worth :-)
The idea is to put a new post up 2-3 times a week, so please pop back in a few days. Thanks!
Yay! blogging is the way forward… I feel you need a suitable zombie picture tho, I was toying with photo shopping you into a pic running from said zombies? heheheh
Just to let you know that you are now listed on my links page and also plugged in my most recent post. Liking the customised header – does the abandoned pair of trainers indicate that the zombies got you? :P
yay, thanks scribs :-)
interpret the header as you will, though i like to think that the zombies will never catch me…
