this dude rules. he has completed his goal of 50 marathons in 50 states in 50 days. he makes me feel lazy, yet inspired.

i had anticipated running with him when he was in baltimore in early november, but failed because of my knee injury. it has still barked at me when i push the envelope. however, most of my time the past few months has been spent in the water, staring at a line painted at the bottom of the chlorinated pool. swimming is like meditation, with the added benefit of a full body massage via water rushing down the length of your frame. the weather out here has been spectacular, too, and we have been able to go on a long bike here and there.

right on, dean.
