I found a nice little article on ultra-runner Kevin Lin, here.Anyone who has watched the film Running the Sahara knows of Kevin Lin, as one of the trio who ran across the entire Sahara in 2007. The film is one of my favorite running films, and in fact I've had…

Running: 6 miles. Fairly standard run along my Lantern Road/116th street route, late in the afternoon. Had to dodge a few stray raindrops here and there, but otherwise no worries.Kendo: I put in extra time and effort with my suburi this morning, largely out of frustration from missing class last…

Running: 7 miles. My weekly visit to campus, so I had the opportunity to do a run at Potter's Bridge (and Forest Hill). I had thought I might end up indoors because the morning was quite rainy, but by the time I had finished my various campus chores the rain…

Running: off day. My original plan involved running today and moving both off days to Saturday and Sunday, but for various reasons I needed a day off today. This means I very definitely must run during the weekend.Kendo: I'm adding some fumikomi drills to my daily routine. I want to work…

Running: (last week: 37 miles, 12/6 distance). Kicked off my 24 week training plan for the Bison 50 last week, and things went very well: I made every training goal. A good start.This week will prove more of a challenge. The upcoming Memorial Day weekend is going to be super-busy…

Running: 12 miles. Distance day, and a warm one, too. The morning was busy for various family matters, so I didn't have an opportunity to run until the early afternoon, by which time the temp had hit the mid-eighties, with lots of humidity to boot. The Monon was absolutely packed, nonetheless.I…

Running: 6 miles. I was back out on Lantern Road again, for what proved to be a pretty warm and humid run. I'm not complaining, really, but I will need to get slowly re-acclimated to such things. I'm certainly bringing my hydration pack with me, even on relatively brief runs…

Running: 7 miles. Continuing my trend of running in places other than 1) the Wellness Center, 2) a treadmill, or 3) my regular neighborhood routes, today I found time to run out on the Monon Greenway. This included my first run over the new Rohrer street/146th street bridge just constructed…

Running: 5 miles. I found myself unexpectedly on the Noblesville side of town, so I took advantage and ran at an old favorite trail--Potter's Bridge. I don't often have the opportunity to do this, because I no longer live near that part of the county; which is unfortunate, because Potter's…
