Montrails, RSA, Running, Storytelling

Ran today, finally after recovering from that brutal RSA virus.  The Montrails might have been overkill for the conditions – mid 50s, melting snow and blinding sunshine.

Knowing that cold’s behind me has me motivated.  I have some thoughts around firing up a new fictional story.  I’ve been gathering ideas around security and privacy, corporate bullshit, innovation vs greed, and I don’t know; I might just summarize my 16 years at IBM in one big story.  The format might change a bit.  Longer reads.  Could stretch the thing out for the rest of the year.  Should I write a big one?

East Boulder Trail Conditions: Muddy with a chance of cow paddy

Montrails, YakTrax

After several monotonous months of running 4.5 miles around the neighborhood, I finally broke out an 8 miler.  It wasn’t the best trail conditions, but I can’t run that far without something to look at.  The East Boulder and White Rock Trails are one of my all-time favorite routes.  The picture is of my MonTrail Cryptonites afterward.  I only saw one other runner on the entire 8 miles.  He was wearing some YakTrax for traction.  I’ve considered those but haven’t read any good reviews on them.  I’m curious though so let me know if you have tried them.  Consider this a 5 minute video blog…
