Hey guys, just as I promised last Monday, I signed up for a race this week!  I’ll be running the Malibu Half Marathon with my dear old mother in November!  I honestly don’t know how all the pieces fell into place, but she told me she wanted to run a race with me, and next thing we knew we were signed up for the Malibu.  She’ll be flying out to Los Angeles November 8^th and we’ll be running along the Pacific Coast November 11^th.  I’m very excited!  Maybe this summer I can get her to do a couple of guest blogs to see how her training is coming!

As for me, I’ve gotta get my butt in gear!  Its beach season here in Los Angeles and I’ve been nothing but lethargic lately.  The occasional bike ride and 5k isn’t cutting it.  I ran about five miles tonight and felt like an old man when I got home!  Time to ramp it up and get back into marathon mode.  Only four and a half months until the Malibu Half Marathon!
