Verbosity reigns Supreme: My First Podcast

The first podcast I ever did was a promotion for my grandfather’s annual Community Dinner. I did this one late at night, March, 2006, and spent most of the evening building the microsite in support of the dinner itself (which means I was tired and actually thought this was a good idea). […]

Is running similar to playing the piano?

I’ve been running for about 2 years now. Of course everyone knows I’ve been playing the piano for a lot longer. What’s funny is for the 2+ years I’ve been running, I’ve seen little improvement until this past July. I have found that suddenly, the 2 years of hard work have kicked […]

5k for Katie: My 5k PR

I ran a 5k today within the 27 minute range, which put me in the top 50 competitors. This race was an out-and-back, which I’ve decided I like. Given my age group, getting anywhere near the top third is usually pretty difficult. Today, I ran my fastest 5k pace overall and ran against a […]
