A New Beginning....Again

So. Here I am. Again. 

    Why the delay? Frankly, I am not sure. Life has gotten incredibly busy, and almost insanely so. I have so much I want to write/blog about, yet so little time to do so. Some days it comes down to sheer ability to remember...something I need to work on. 

All that said, I have been thinking about the direction I want to take this blog. I have henpecked at this over the years, and it seems a bit....aimless. Don't believe me? Check out the archives. 3 posts between 2014 and today. 3. Two of them are while I was laid up after having ankle surgery. All 3 posts are unique in content, and none of them very cohesive in their content. My blog has officially become just as random as the title. For me, this is scary, as anything in written form should have some semblance of order. Hopefully this post will be the first of many that will change that. 

This leads to the next logical question....where do I see this blog going in the next days/weeks/months/years ahead? A very good question indeed. My hope is to start by recapping my recent (ok...so not so very recent) race experiences. Since February of this year, I have completed 3 out of 4 half marathons that I had set out to do. The incomplete race? 4 miles stand between me and it...and I will go over that one in a later post. I have also had the privilege of volunteering at a Ragnar relay. This experience will be documented as well. Why? Because it is an insane race, and it was a blast to be a part of it! In short, I see this blog becoming what it should have been when I started it....about running. My own tales, the tales of those of a volunteer, and perhaps tales of one who chases another while that person is running. 

While this is my first post of many to come, have no fear. This is not a "head's up" on a change, only to end until the next time. My hope is to be a bit more regular with updating the blog...maybe figuring out how to change the backdrop (new change should equal a new background, right?)...and passing on the tales of a runner randomly running for Christ.
