A couple of years ago I decided that sitting around and watching Buffy all the time probably wasn't the best way to live a healthy and fulfilling life so I started to run (this isn't to say I have stopped watching Buffy, it is just no longer my raison d'etre). Then I ran some more. Six-months later I ran a half-marathon along Route 66 and after another six and a whole mess of miles I ran a marathon around the streets of Oklahoma City. Over a year later and an illness curtailed second attempt I'm about start training again...
In between training I do other things like study (a lot) and teach stuff. I'm currently designing a study looking at the cognitive effects of studying philosophy while simultaneously re-modelling the bathroom. So that's fun... Right?
