Yes, yes...I know...I have been a slacker and I haven't written in ages. But I swear that I wuz writin'...Between the last time that I made a new post and now, I must have written over a hundred e-mails, signed scores of receipts, and scribbled on plenty of pages in meetings. As for the cumulative running mileage...who knows! So, let's just start with 200 miles which is an understatement because each month since January--which is when I last blogged here--I have run about 40-50 miles a month. So, 200 miles it is...and that includes the 6 miles that I ran yesterday in a beautiful, cool, summer evening caressed by a misty breeze from the ocean. I have switched to a North Face Arnuva Running shoe and I am quite happy with the shoe although it is, technically, a trail-running shoe. It has a fairly wide toe-box, ample support and a robust outsole -- all in all, a comfortable, yet rigid, construction.
Today, I must thank a Miller Genuine Draft Light beer billboard for inspiring me to get back to my blog. Now, this beer is advertised as being only 64 calories. I don't know about you but when I am enjoying a beer, I am usually enjoying the taste of the beer, the company I am with, or the conversation that goes along with it. Who really cares about the calorific content of a beer? I thought beers were supposed to be about the taste, the hops, and the brew. Only in America would the greatest selling point of a beer be its calories. Beers repeating!
